Abstract

en_US Here is the 1922 printing of a book already in the collection from the 1925 printing. It is missing two of the lovely fable illustrations: FG (19) and TH (22). The particular pride of this volume is, I believe, the orange-brown-and-black Pogany illustrations. The book presents eighteen fables in three early groups. The source for at least TMCM seems to be Joseph Jacobs. Among these, several are particularly well illustrated, including MM (35) and TMCM (43). Perhaps half of the fables are illustrated. The ox mutters a good moral to DM: Ah, people often grudge others what they cannot enjoy themselves (18). WS (24) is told in the poorer version. This version of LS (27) gives the lion unusual partners: a fox, jackal, and a wolf. The last comment to the miller in MLS (30) is well done here: Why, you two are better able to carry the poor beast than he is to carry you.
