Abstract

en_US This book is internally very similar to a 1958 edition by Editions de la Rue des Carmes, #4 in the Collection Arc-en-ciel. Pagination and type-setting are slightly different. The size is the same: 9¾ x 12¾. There are the same twenty-one fables. There is again a T of C at the back. The book has all six full-page illustrations that I know from my two Fables de La Fontaine editions in the smaller-formatted Collection Contes et Couleurs by Fratelli Fabbri of 1964 and 1965. Those repeaters are LM, TH, Le Cheval et l'Ane, AD, TMCM, and Les Deux Chevres. Not in those two but in the Rue des Carmes edition and here are Le Chat, la Belette et le Petit Lapin (15) and TB (44). The sparkling-eyed rats of TMCM, my favorite illustration there, is also the cover illustration here. The sprawled-out hunter before the bear on 44 makes a strong second-place finish. From the Japanese Aesop's Fables of 1982 I learn that Maraja's first name is Libico. There are seven other books in this Fabbri series Collection Contes et Couleurs. Five of them, with slightly different names, are the other members of the Collection Arc-en-ciel from Rue des Carmes.
