Synopsis
Select Fables Of Esop by Monf. de Meziriac. This English edition presents a comprehensive collection of Esop’s fables alongside works attributed to other fabulists, gathered in three books. It opens with a preface and a translated Life of Esop, drawn from ancient authorities and annotated with scholarly notes, including debates about Planudes’s accounts and Lokman’s relation to the Greek Esop. The volume compiles fables with moral lessons, illustrating virtue, prudence, and common sense through animal characters and allegorical situations. It also discusses the historical transmission of fables and the controversies surrounding their authorship. The collection aims to educate youth through succinct, morally pointed tales, while offering modern readers a window into classical and early modern approaches to fable as a didactic literary form. It stands as a significant colonial-era English rendering of ancient fable tradition, curated to entertain as well as instruct.
