'The Fables of Phaedrus' is a collection of stories from ancient Rome, brought to life by Phaedrus, the first Latin verifier of Aesop's fables. Divided into five books, these fables feature a range of animals, including talking trees, and provide an insightful commentary on human nature. This collection includes not only the 94 fables contained in the Pithoeanus, but also the 30 poems found in the Appendix Perottina. A must-read for those interested in classical literature and the wisdom of the ages.
