Description
1869 1st ed Fables of Ivan Krylov RUSSIA Political Satire Aesop Fontaine English
Ivan Krylov was the most popular and unequivocally best Russian fabulist of the 18th- and early 19th-century. Many of his fables were based on the works of Aesop and Fontaine, however, they are still considered original and full of satire. Many of Krylov’s fables take a humorous ‘jab’ and politics or are a reworking of a well-known fable; perhaps relating it to something different than the original plot.
This 1869 first English edition was translated by William Ralston and published by Strahan.
