Abstract
-
en_US
At last a comprehensive reproduction of Rabier's La Fontaine! Rabier had followed LaFontaine's order more or less. This book follows Rabier's original strictly except for one section where three fables from Book I (The Thieves and the Ass, Simondes Preserved by the Gods, and OF) are skipped , and in their place the editors insert three fables from Book X (Mother Lion and Mother Bear, The Shepherd and the King, and The Fish and the Shepherd Playing the Flute). Here all the illustrations are colored, whereas only about one-quarter were colored in my 1906 edition. The coloring improves them! This is a well printed book. It should be, of course, since it is Tallandier's own book! T of C at the front. This volume handles Books I, II, III, and the first few fables of Book IV. Rabier's original page-header indicated the book of LaFontaine's work, e.g., Livre Premier. Now it indicates present volume number, e.g., Tome 1. Where does the cover-picture of GA come from? It is not from either the cover or the illustrations in the 1906 edition.
