Edition of the 94 Phaedrus fables with commentaries in French to be used at schools, together with the 5 additional fables by Gudius and the Sententiae of Syrus. After a half-title follow the famous "100 (Aesop) fables", translated in elegant Latin verses by Gabriel Faerno (first ed. 1563; Bodemann, 33,1).Pope Pius IV, convinced that reading the fables of Aesop was of great use in forming the morals of young children, commissioned Gabriel Faerno, whom he knew as an excellent poet as well as a man with a taste for elegant and beautiful Latinity, to versify these fables so that children might learn, at the same time and from the same book, both moral and linguistic purity. Faerno (1510-1561), a scrupulous scholar and Latin poet from Cremona, has been called a second Phaedrus, though he never saw a Phaedrus edition, which did not appear till above thirty years after Faerno's death.Top slightly damaged; some quires somewhat loosened.l Cf.

Zustand: Good. 8vo. 13 x 20cm, xvi, 192pp.Contemporary calf covers rebacked in matching calf. .One of the most popular editions of Aesop's Fables was that of Gabriele Faerno, published posthumously in 1563. Faerno translated 100 fables into Latin verse, apparently at the behest of Pope Pius IV, to serve as moral tales to educate young children. The collection not only included fables by Aesop and other ancient fabulists but also examples of medieval folklore. Faerno is also notable for his inclusion of the moral of the story at the end of each of the tales. The work went through around 40 editions and was translated into several European languages.OCLC Number / Unique Identifier:559297411.…
