Immerse yourself in the world of classical fables with this edition of 'Favole' by Phaedrus. This book, published by BUR Rizzoli, presents the text in Italian and Latin, offering an enriching reading experience for lovers of ancient literature. With an introduction, translation and notes by Enzo Mandruzzato, this edition is ideal for both students and readers interested in exploring the works of Phaedrus.
Gaius Julius Phaedrus or Phaeder was a 1st-century AD Roman fabulist and the first versifier of a collection of Aesop's fables into Latin. Nothing is recorded of his life except for what can be inferred from his poems, and there was little mention of his work during late antiquity. It was not until the discovery of a few imperfect manuscripts during and following the Renaissance that his importance emerged, both as an author and in the transmission of the fables.
