Abstract
-
en_US
What a surprising little book! Who would have thought of teaching Latin through La Fontaine's fables?! The fables here are done in prose, but not always the simplest prose. A quick check suggests that, as Gardner admits, he had to miss some of what La Fontaine's French may be expressing. A preface talks about the book's method and the introduction gets more into how using that method helps to enjoy and understand a fable. The fifty fables listed in the beginning T of C is followed by extensive notes, a short grammar of gender, and a large vocabulary. What fun!
