Abstract
-
en_US
This 48-page comic book, consistent with our Classics Illustrated, presents the life of Aesop. To my surprise, it starts with Aesop as an older man. I can make out very few of the more commonly supposed events of tradition in this rendition. Aesop seems to carry a head of a Hermes statue. Is it revealed somewhere along the line as a kind of piggy bank? The final day of Aesop is presented as something of a divinization. He is hurled from a cliff and there is fire where he lands. Though the cover illustrates animals from some of Aesop's best known fables, I find no mention of them in the comic book itself. I learned two repeated expressions from the text and pictures: Ha, ha is Xa, Xa and people like to say Loipon. Is that something like And the rest? Very good condition.
