Abstract

See my comments on Volume 1. This volume takes TH and The Carter Stuck in the Mud from their place in Book VI and inserts them at its beginning, apparently in order to let the cover illustrate the first story inside the book. There is only one other change from Rabier's original order: The Charlatan and Epilogue are taken from their original place at the end of Book VI and inserted at the end of this volume, which by then has actually included eight fables of Book VII. I think I can see a slight difference of taste in the coloring of the illustrations that my original did not have colored. Would Rabier's coloring of Le Singe et le Dauphin (10) have been quite as wild as this? T of C at the front. This volume handles Books V and VI and parts of IV and VII. Where does the cover-picture of TH come from? It is not from either the cover or the illustrations in the 1906 edition.
