- Abstract
- en_US Identical with the 1983 paperback I had earlier, though from a different publisher. A wonderful collection including some surprises like John Lennon. The dozen or so categories into which the fables are gathered may be somewhat maverick. Many of the texts here are new to me, like Wyatt's different version of TMCM (96-9). One category is for comparative renditions, apparently of the same fable. Aesop shows up in most categories, and his followers in almost all. Twelve good reproductions (listed on xxiii), but I cannot see any I would use in a lecture. There is a great frontispiece (after Hollar) of the belly that has cut off the head.
