Abstract
-
en_US
Here is a second copy of a book already in the collection, for which I guessed a date of 1870. It makes changes in the presumably earlier printing that we already have. Above all, it corrects the misspelling of Grandville on the title-page! It adds a date and a second address for the publisher. It now has am embossed red cloth cover. The printer changes the typeface on his line after the closing AI. As I wrote then, this is a fine little volume. Florian's fables make up the first 180 pages. The 110 fables seem to be all here. I find 18 illustrations. I am not certain whether these are by Grandville or after him. Many of them are signed by Grandville. Many of them are distinctly printed here. Among my favorites here are "Le Chat et le Miroir" (11); "La Carpe et les Carpillons" (15); "Le Bouvreuil et le Corbeau" (45):"L'Enfant et le Miroir" (49); and "Le Chat et le Moineau" (72, my favorite).
