Abstract

Earlier, a tip over the web put me on to the first volume. Now I am delighted to find the second volume for only €5, along with a second copy of the first volume. As I wrote about the first volume, Aractingi did the menus for Air France that I have had for some years. This is a beautiful landscape-formatted paperback book. This volume covers Books 4-6 of La Fontaine, with a full-page illustration for each of the sixty-five fables. The introduction seems to indicate that he painted all 246 fables. I need to look for the two volumes covering the last six books; the introduction says that they were to appear in 1998. They seem unavailable now. My favorites here include Le berger et la mer (13); FM (31); L'oracle et l'impie (46); Le serpent et la lime (85); L'aigle et le hibou (89); DLS (94); Le cheval et l'âne (126); and La jeune veuve (136).
