Abstract

en_US Now I have a hardbound version of this important first edition, distinct from the two-volume work of 1925 and 1926. I doubt that the binding of this book was done by the publisher himself. Thus it is practically equivalent with the paperback copy I have already listed (ID #687). However, that other copy of this book is a numbered edition. So this book stands as a simple copy in contrast to that special one. I repeat what I said there. It is a lovely Budé text of 358 fables. No notes. Index at the back. Chambry explains on v-vi the numbering changes from his standard-setting two-volume work: The Horse and the Boar was a doublet in the earlier work (#144 and 329). #144 is dropped in this work. Also The Oak and the Reed had appeared as #101. Now Chambry has chosen the variant The Reed and the Olive, and it takes its new alphabetical place at #143. The other items seem to match up consistently, but note that he has taken just one text in each case from the many he presented earlier.
