Abstract
-
en_US
See my comments on Volume 1. This volume begins with OF, for which the cover provides an illustration. Whence comes this illustration, since it is not from either the cover or the illustrations in the 1906 edition? Along with OF come two other fables from Book I skipped in Volume 1of this series (The Thieves and the Ass and Simondes Preserved by the Gods). From Book IX of LaFontaine we have Le Berger et son Troupeau and the Two Rats and an Egg story in the address to Madame de la Sablière usually appended to Book IX. Otherwise this volume's material comes entirely from Books X-XII and the appendices. Missing from the original edition's order are two small sets of materials that have already appeared respectively in Volume 1 (La Lionne et L'Ourse [245], Le Berger et le Roi [246-7], and Les Poissons et le Berger qui joue de la Flute [248]) and Volume 3 (Le Loup et le Renard [285-6]) of this series. The last story, Le Juge Arbitre, L'Hospitalier et le Solitaire (86-7), is a good example of the naïve modern coloring of the stories not originally colored by Rabier himself. T of C at the front.
