Abstract
-
en_US
Here are 107 Aesopic fables in Hebrew, many of them accompanied by highly stylized woodcuts. Among the best of the illustrations may be "The Donkey and the Lapdog" (25); "The Cat and the Fox" (99); and "The Monkey Mother" (112). Several stories seem to have been varied slightly here. The lion faces four bulls, not three (59). What is usually a stag is here a ram whose horns get caught in the branches while dogs pursue him (80). There is a T of C at the beginning. 121 pages. 5¼" x 8¼". This book seems to have been published with the support of the Liebovitz and Kest Families.
