AESOP'S FABLES Translated by George
Fyler Townsend (1814-1900) Edited and
Converted to Windows 3.1 Help Format by
Jon E. Noring Revision 1.2 December 27,
1993 (C) Copyright 1993 by Jon E. Noring
"Aesop's Fables" contains 312 fables
attributed to Aesop, an ancient Greek
writer and scholar born approximately
620 B.C. The fables contained in this
document were originally translated by
the Rev. George Fyler Townsend
(1814-1900). Throughout history,
"Aesop's Fables" have been regarded as
the finest of that genre and were much
studied in scholarly circles. I
encourage the reader to approach these
fables with an open mind; not only will
they be quite enjoyable, they will also
be quite enlightening as to how the
wisdom contained applies as much today
as it did over 2500 years ago.
