Abstract

en_US The full title reads this way: Aisopou mythoi Fabulae Aesopicae Graecae quae Maximo Planudi tribuuntur ad veterum librorum fidem emendatas Ioannis Hudsonis suisque adnotationibus illustratas atque indice verborum locupletissimo instructas edidit Io. Michael Heusinger curavit et praefatus est Christ. Adolph. Klotzius. The book is easy to find online; it seems to be the only book that comes up if one Googles Wittekindt, although this edition may be a reprint of a 1770 edition also done by Wittekindt. The book has three parts: a lengthy unpaginated introduction; 120 pages of some 149 fables and their variants; and a Greek/Latin dictionary of all the vocables that occur in Aesop's fables. This third section has a two-page addition cataloguing items explained in the notes. The whole comes, online sources say, to 288 pages. The introductory section includes a preface by Klotz; a catalogue of manuscripts by Heusinger, a preface to the reader by Hudson; and sixty-eight ancient testimonies to Aesop and the fables. For those confused by the shortened and Latinized names on the title-page, here are more complete and modern names: Christian Adolph Klotz edited this book, following on the work of editor and commentator John Hudson with Johann Michael Heusinger's index verborum. The publisher is Johann Georg Ernst Wittekindt.
