- Abstract
- en_US The back cover describes this helpful book well. The book collects themes from collections of Aesopic fables composed in French between 1480 and 1595. 511 motifs are organized alphabetically by title and numbered. For each there is a quick description of the fable's action, with its variations. Then come three sections: A) sources; B) a listing of all the works in this period presenting that fable; and C) works other than fable collections employing that fable. At the close of the book there is a bibliography of the fable works mined in this study and a list of fable characters with the numbers of the fables in which they appear. Finally there is a list of the scholarly sources consulted. I have always enjoyed Paola's careful and spirited work. Here is an excellent example!
