[Esopo favole](15x21) pp. 200. Questo libro si compone di ben 430 favole, 354 di Esopo, altre di La Fontaine ed altre ancora dello stesso Pancrazi, ma tutte sembrano scaturite da un'unica mente, impossibile distinguerne i vari autori. Diversamente dalla favole di Esopo, riportate in tante antologie, queste non hanno la morale, tolta volutamente da Pancrazi per renderle di più immediato approccio per il lettore. Anche il titolo per molte è stato cambiato; ridotto ad una o due parole sole parole, esprimenti in sintesi il concetto del racconto. Nelle pagine iniziali "Invito all'Esopo", leggiamo, tra l'altro, la tanto particolare, quanto leggendaria vita di Esopo. L'opera è inoltre impreziosita dalla prefazione della giornalista Marina Corradi e dall'introduzione del filosofo Edoardo Mirri. L'editore in dieci pagine finali ha voluto catalogare queste favole, raggruppandone i titoli sotto gli analoghi concetti che, a suo parere, esprimono, come: adulazione, affetto deleterio, ambiguità, ecc.

1954réf. 1004349New York: Museum of Modern Art 1954. First trade edition of one of the most graphically striking modern editions of Aesop adapted from the limited edition of the same year signed and dated by Antonio Frasconi. Featured fables include "The Hare with Ability and the Tortoise with Staying Power" "The Jackdaw with Eclectic Plumage" and "The Flattered Raven and the Crafty Fox." Bursting with energy Frasconi's linocut images provide a comic counterpoint to Glenway Wescott's deadpan "narration" of the fables: the stag "took refuge springing amid the underbrush where his proud headgear entangled him. There as he struggled with the desolate sound of the hound coming closer and closer in a flash he developed a better sense of values." The Books of Antonio Frasconi 9. A near-fine copy in original publisher's envelope scarce signed. Side-stapled pamphlet measuring 8.25 x 6 inches: 32. Original buff pictorial wrappers printed in red and black. Linoleum block illustrations printed in black throughout text. Signed and dated "July 9 '75" by Antonio Frasconi at title. Upper corner lightly bumped. Housed in publisher's red envelope with ghost of price label. Museum of Modern Art unknown books

AAS 223140. Fourteen fables from Aesop some told in rhyming verse: The Fox and the Grapes The Fox and the Tortoise The Shepherd's Boy The Fox and the Goat The Ass in the Lion's Skin The Dog and the Water Dog The Wolf and the Crane The Dog in the Manger; Hercules and the Clown The Lark and Her Yonug sic Ones The Doves and Hawk The Groom and the Horse The Lion and Other Beasts and The Owl and the Nightingale. This copy has the misspelled fable title "The Lark and Her Yonug Ones" on page 17. Page 24 has an engraving of a large tree a person holding a gun on one side and a goat on the other. There are variants with the spelling corrected and an engraving showing a tent under a tree. This may be an earlier imprint with the uncorrected spelling. J. Grout, Jr. unknown books

1697réf. 55531Paris: Widow of Claude Thiboust Madeleine Thévenon / Augustin Leguerrier 1697. Very good. First edition published in France of this influential Latin collection of Aesopian-fables - almost certainly the edition used by fairy tale-popularizer Charles Perrault for his French translation of 1699. Faerno's Neo-Latin fables were first published in 1563 as FABULAE CENTUM and soon became the most successful original work in the Aesopian tradition until La Fontaine; like La Fontaine Faerno adapted classical sources like Aesop as well as writing his own fables. In fact this edition's name refers to another important fabulist and celebrated Latin translator of Aesop Phaedrus whose work was rediscovered in the Renaissance; Faerno's fables were considered so good that many thought he cribbed them from Phaedrus - a charge against which Perrault defended him in his French translation of 1699. This edition was published the same year as Perrault's book of fairy tales HISTOIRES OU CONTES DU TEMPS PASSÉ 1697. Perrault appears to have begun his translation of Faerno around the same time suggesting that Perrault saw his fairy-tale work as linked to the fabulist tradition going back to Aesop. This edition the first printed in France according to the anonymous preface was meant especially for the education of children rearranging some of the entries to start with those easier to comprehend. Ashby notes that "Aesop's fables were not originally created for children" 6 but rather were intended as lessons for adults. Yet Faerno's own Aesopian fables were seen as a pedagogical tool from the beginning especially for teaching students Latin; it was works like this one that helped transform the wisdom tradition of the Aesopian fable into what we now see as a children's genre side by side with the fairy tale tradition. 12mo 5.5'' x 3.25''.

1875réf. 34370London: Chatto & Windus 1875. Very good. Second edition of this Victorian tour de force with fine and fabulous hand-colored images of humanized animals. Eric Quayle notes that Bennett 1829-1867 had a short career which was terminated by consumption but his books were "extremely popular most passing though several editions"; this book "contains some of Bennett's finest and most vigorous work" 217. The Morgan Library's EARLY CHILDREN'S BOOKS AND THEIR ILLUSTRATORS also list it as a notable edition of Aesop. Bennett's compositions suggest the fine caricature of PUNCH but applied a classic work of ancient Greece. 9.75'' x 7.25''. Original blue pictorial cloth stamped in gilt and black. Yellow coated endpapers. Illustrated by Bennett with 24 full-page wood engravings hand colored including title page. 22 pages. Emboss of famed Victorian bookselling firm W.H.
