Abstract
Here, in two volumes, are Krylov's works. This edition seems to work off of the earlier Pravda edition of 1956. There are several changes. Exteriorly, the books drop the black profile of Krylov embossed on the front covers. Now, on green cloth, there is a golden title I.A. Krylov and a volume number. Secondly, the fables are now in the second volume. Thirdly, the series, Otyechyestvyennayah Klassika, is now more copiously and specifically named. Fourthly, there are now at least three colored illustrations, facing 129, 160 and 289, respectively. Otherwise, illustrations seem more sparse here than in the 1956 edition. I find only a few, like the two facing 128. N.P. Stepanova still does the very first item in the first volume, presumably an introduction to Krylov and his works. As I did with the earlier pair of volumes, I will here keep the first volume in the collection, so that it stays with its companion volume. The fables commence immediately here on 5 and seem to finish on 200. This book maintains the 1956 tradition of a commentary on each piece at the back. There is a T of C at the back of each volume. What are not fables in this volume seem to be mostly dramas.
