Abstract

en_US "The cover and title-page set "hellenike" and "agglika" on the sides of ""diglosso," (bilingual). This volume continues the good project begun in Volume 1. The book's pattern seems to be that a simple English text, titled, is set against the beginning of a titled Greek text, and these facing pages are complemented with several one-color designs pertinent to the fable. The next pages then include more Greek (the rest of the fable or further comment?) and a full multicolor page. A strong sample of this last element is on 39: the man breaks his non-productive statue of a god and finds money pouring out of it. It is good to repeat this illustration on the front cover. "The Shipwrecked Merchant" makes good use of the one-color illustrations on 58-59 to give both underwater and above-water views of the shipwrecked passengers. "Hermes and the Sculptor" is one of the strongest illustrations (70). 79 pages, originally with an audio cassette. It is frustrating that I cannot track down this book anywhere on the internet. When was it published?"
