Favole di Jean de La Fontaine, Libro 08

Nei 12 volumi delle "Favole" (1669 - 1693) Jean de La Fontaine rinnovò la tradizione esopica, rappresentando la commedia umana. Quest'opera dimostrò il suo amore per la vita rurale e attraverso animali simbolici ironizzò sulla vita della società dell'epoca.

By : Jean de La Fontaine (1621 - 1695), translated by Emilio De Marchi (1861 - 1917)

Jean de La Fontaine era il più famoso fabulista francese e uno dei poeti francesi più letti del XVII secolo. È noto soprattutto per le sue Favole, che hanno fornito un modello per i fabulisti successivi in tutta Europa e numerose versioni alternative in Francia e nelle lingue regionali francesi. Secondo Flaubert, era l'unico poeta francese a comprendere e padroneggiare la trama della lingua francese prima di Hugo.
