About this book

Based on versions of the Fables by Phaedrus and Babrius, Niklas Holzberg offers us the first bilingual edition of the collection of Greek prose fables transmitted under the name of Aesop (first/second centuries CE). In the manuscripts, the fables follow a fictional vita of the narrator, a biography that profoundly influenced the modern genre of the picaresque novel. It is translated for the first time into German here based on sound scholarship.

  • First edition with German translation
  • Edited by Niklas Holzberg, renowned for his expertise on ancient fables

    "Dem Forscher und Lehrenden der Klassischen Philologie Niklas Holzberg ist es auf prägnante Weise gelungen den »Lachfreund« Äsop so darzubieten, das alle Interessierten, die in den Fabeln auftretenden Figurationen wie Götter, Menschen, Tiere, Pflanzen und anderes Zeug - in fabelhafterweise übersetzt und interpretiert – erfrischend neu klargestellt werden."
