Abstract

en_US The T of C at the end gives the basic structure and tells who wrote each fable. There are three books of fables here, with one hundred, one-hundred-and-fourteen, and forty-one fables in them, respectively. That adds up to two-hundred-and-fifty-five on 458 pages. Unless ten pages have been lost, the pagination jumps from 456 to 467 and keeps rising from there. It is hard to tell whether pages have been lost because the last work is a fairly endless Debate of the Flowers, labeled as a Poeme Allégorique. I will let someone else delve into that mystery. Check Bodemann 194.1: that is a fable book for mature children. This, done a year later by the same publisher, apparently acts as an introduction and complement to that book. The engraved frontispiece has a child reading to the birds and animals from a sheet of paper. A rapid scan of the T of C reveals a wide variety of authors, including Desbillons and Berenger, the author of the 1801 Bruyset edition. Offhand, the fable authors seem all to be French. Leather covers, the front cover separating from the spine. Marbled end-papers. A great little find!
