Abstract

en_US
"This book has surprised me. It is a book of fables divided into two parts. It is meant for children, as the series indicates. The first part offers fables of the "pampa," for which our closest translation is probably "the prairie." The second part covers fables of the woods. Most of the fables are one or two pages in length. As is natural for fables, many involve two characters encountering each other. I enjoy getting into "La mosca sonadora" (13). Is it that the questioner asks a fly sitting in a pigsty buzzing what she is doing not flying? Her answer, I believe, is "I'm buzzing." "Las respuestas del indio" has the narrator asking a native American four questions and getting good answers (175). Which animal is most faithful? The dog. Which is most noble? The horse. This fable has one of the full-page colored illustrations. Another shows the monkey, parrot, and crocodile facing the beginning of "Fábulas de la pampa." There are also full-page black-and white designs, and there is a light green floral watermark on the binding edge of all the print pages. The book is unusual for its colored pictorial cover showing something of the pampa and something of the woods. There is a T of C at the end on 237-40."
