Abstract

en_US
Lively cartoons present "The Eagle and the Beetle"; "The Fox and the Goat"; "The Stag and the Lion"; "The Cat and the Rats"; "The Little Goat and the Flautist Wolf"; and "The Horse and the Ass." In "The Eagle and the Beetle," I think the original fable's idea is that the beetle scatters dung in Jupiter's lap. The god then arises and brushes what is in his lap away, including the eagle's eggs. In this version, the beetle throws a huge dollop of dung onto king lion's head! This series apparently regularly replaces humans and gods with animals. "The Stag and the Lion" makes several changes in La Fontaine's fable. Instead of allowing the stag to reflect on his gifts and limitations, this version has a frog ask about his legs, which the stag has called "weak." Instead of pursuing dogs, we have a pursuing lion. "The Cat and the Rats" is La Fontaine's version of the cat who tried to look dead to attract the rats. Unfortunately, the image has the cat firing a shotgun at the fleeing rats! Perhaps the writer and image-maker did not get together on their understanding of this fable! In "The Horse and the Ass," the horse now must carry the master and all of the ass's burdens. My prizes in this 16-page pamphlet about 7" x 8" go to the lion hit by the eagle's massive ball of dung and to the helpful goat helping the fox get out of the well.
