- Abstract
- en_US I have been able to read only the introduction to this fascinating study. Wright works from the two verse textbooks of Aesop for medievals and late medievals, Avianus' forty-two fables and the sixty fables of the Anonymous Neveleti (Walter of England). He investigates the growth of Latin commentary on these collections, frequently used as textbooks. He works on the connections of this Latin commentary tradition with the development of important German fable collections, including Boner's Edelstein, the Magdeburg Aesop, the Wroclaw Aesop (all in verse), and the Nurnberg Aesop in prose. Ah, how I would love to dig in further!
