Sobre este artículo
London: Thomas Nelson & Sons. Hardcover. Good +/No Jacket. Helen Haywood. The interior of the book is clean and tight, showing light wear only. There is a vintage Christmas seal on the top corner of the free front end paper with the name of a former owner, a gift inscription (dated Xmas 1957) on the verso, and her name again on the top corner of the title page. The glossy pictorial covers are in good + condition, with light wear overall, but heavier wear to the spine, including colour loss to the top and bottom. The general impression is of a slightly shabby -- but still bright and attractive -- little book. Scans are available on request.
Sinopsis
Sardonic, wry and wise, Aesop's Fables are some of the most enduring and well-loved literary creations in history. In a series of pithy, amusing vignettes, Aesop created a vivid cast of characters to demonstrate different aspects of human nature. Here we see a wily fox outwitted by a quick-thinking cicada, a tortoise triumphing over a self-confident hare and a fable-teller named Aesop silencing those who mock him. Each jewel-like fable provides a warning about the consequences of wrong-doing, as well as offering a glimpse into the everyday lives of Ancient Greeks.
