| Summary | "Fables de La Fontaine" by Jean de La Fontaine is a collection of fables written in the 17th century. This celebrated work consists of short stories that often feature anthropomorphic animals, encapsulating moral lessons and social commentary. The fables reflect on human behavior and societal norms through engaging narratives." "At the start of "Fables de La Fontaine," the author provides a preface that discusses the origins of fables and emphasizes the importance of moral lessons conveyed through storytelling. La Fontaine references the ancient fabulists like Aesop and highlights the artistry of combining poetry with moral instruction. The opening also introduces the first few fables, including "The Ant and the Grasshopper," where an ant's industriousness contrasts sharply with the carefree grasshopper, setting the tone for the timeless wisdom woven throughout the collection. Additionally, La Fontaine engages the reader with rich illustrations and an invocation to the reader, establishing an intimate connection between himself and the audience."
