Abstract
-
en_US
This little book of 316 fables is fascinating for its selection of fables to include from its three fabulists. As far as I can tell from the prologue, it leaves out some of Aesop's fables as unsuitable for cultivated ears and some of Samaniego's that are purely personal or more dedicated to specific persons. The versions of Samaniego and Iriarte are preserved as faithfully as possible. Hmm.... There are real questions here! Certainly a charming feature of the book lies in those sixty cases where two texts are presented, e.g., both Aesop's and Samaniego's The Fox and the Grasshopper (22). A second look just convinced me that all sixty cases involve this combination. Aesop is always in prose here. This book has belonged at various times to J.C. Cebrian of San Francisco and to the University of California. There is some pencilling around the text.
