Abstract

en_US This is one of the legion of French editions whose title-page claims dans laquelle on aperçoit d'un coup d'oeil la moralité de la fable. It is an undistinguished 306-page text for students with a T of C at the end except for the illustrations that interrupt its progress. About once a book, there is a page that presents four fable images, two to a side. Unfortunately, almost all of these are so heavily inked (or the press so dulled) that it is hard to decipher what is happening in the illustration! The best of these, because the lightest in impression, may be the first on 13 and 14. There is also a full-page landscape-formatted frontispiece of La Fontaine composing by a pastoral creek. The value of this book in this collection may be to show people what Canadian pupils had at their disposal at one point in history.
