La Fontaine: Fables: Choix de Fables intégrales

Abstract

This Hachette paperback differs from many others in offering not only a good selection of the fables but a wide variety of black-and-white illustration from the history of La Fontaine's fables. It also has the usual battery of helpful Hachette questions along the way and essays at the back, meant no doubt to get French students through their literature exams. Artists included here include Grandville, Lorioux, Chauveau, Sauvage, Oudry, Job, Picart le Doux, Rabier, Bertall, and Meit. This tight little book of 224 pages was a great find in Casablanca!
