1665Best.-Nr. H-236AESOP c.620-564 BCE and Francis BARLOW c.1626-1702 artist. Aesop's Fables with his Life: in English French and Latin. Translated by Thomas Philipott and Robert Codrington. London: Printed by William Godbid for Francis Barlow 1665. Folio 370 x 240mm. Pre-fire First edition and large paper issue of Barlow's masterpiece on Aesop's Fables. The first edition of 1665-1666 is a rare survivor as nearly all copies were destroyed in the 1666 London fire. According to the Yale Center for British Art who has a similar copy the first edition was largely destroyed in the London fire this copy has the Rob. Codrington trans. entry on the title page consistent with the pre-fire first edition. A second edition was published in 1687 with additional plates to illustrate the life of Aesop and with Philipott's verse replaced with new verse by Aphra Behn. A third edition was issued in 1703 and a posthumous French edition appeared in 1714 published in Amsterdam. The Fables themselves are in English verse by Mrs Behn and French and Latin prose each followed by a moral. Illustrated throughout with detailed images of animals and scenes this edition stands as a landmark book in the history of printing definitely a rare feat of the 17th century. Hodnett describes Barlow's anatomically-skilled drawings as 'the special glory of the Aesop illustrations' and affirms 'No artist has responded with more sensitivity and less sentimentality to the gentle grace of deer … The least of creatures the frog the hare the snake and the swallow and the least favored of them the ass the boar and the wolf — he draws them all with an intimacy charm and inviolable integrity never surpassed in an English book' Edward Hodnett Francis Barlow: First Master of English Book Illustration London 1978 pp.182 185. The fables we now associate with the legendary ancient author Aesop have a complicated textual transmission history but they have been an important part of the educational tradition of the Greco-Roman world and its successors for thousands of years—not only teaching moral lessons but playing a role in language instruction through their many translations.
