Abstract

en_US This booklet comes with a CD. Both the book and the CD contain sixteen of La Fontaine's fables. I found this set shortly before I was to give a paper at the University of California on violence in La Fontaine's fables. The selection of fables is very good for the topic. Each fable gets one picture in the little (5¼ x 4¾) booklet, which is pasted into the stiff CD cover. WL, which also serves as the cover, has the wolf in chef's clothing looking down on the lamb, while the lamb reads a book and sips water from the river. Each image has a few lines from the text. Other fables here include The Lion and the Mosquito, The Thieves and the Donkey, DW, The Two Bulls and a Frog, The Donkey and the Dog, The Cat, the Weasel, and the Little Rabbit, The Wolf Turned Shepherd, The Fox and the Goat, The Lion in Love, LS, The Two Pigeons, The Old Cat and the Young Mouse, The Lion and the Fox, FS, and FM. In FS, the fox walks away with a vase stuck on his nose. There are frequent owls and mosquitoes moving around these pictures, even when they are not characters in the fable. In a last image of La Fontaine writing at night, the owl is there on his writing table. He also shows up as an image on the CD.
