Abstract

en_US This small 3¼ x 5¼ book offers a facing French prose translation for Phaedrus' fables. Its singular contribution, I believe, is that it marks the prose word-order of Phaedrus' text with superscribed numbers. Reading this little book can be slightly confusing because the French and Latin switch sides with every turn of a page! There is a T of C in French at the end. To my surprise, I cannot find this book mentioned in Carnes' bibliography of Phaedrus, nor can I find a close relative among his books. In case the book's purpose is not clear enough from its structure and from that word-counting technique, the title-page tells us: Pour servir a bien entendre la Langue Latine, & a bien traduire en Francois. It is, that is, for learning how to understand Latin and to translate it well.
