Aesop was probably a prisoner of war, sold into slavery in the early sixth century BC, who represented his masters in court and negotiations, and relied on animal stories to put across his key points. All these fables, full of humour, insight and savage wit, as well as many fascinating glimpses of ordinary life, have now been brought together for the first time in this definitive and fully annotated modern edition.

Located along the northeast coast of South America, Guyana is the only English-speaking nation on the continent. Most of the country’s 800,000 people, the majority of whom are of East Indian, African, or mixed descent, live along the swampy coastal plain in the north.

It lives in every village and hamlet, in every nursery and zenana, and wherever the women and children congregate. At the same time, the folk- poem is still very far from dead, but that the wandering bard is beginning to die out is becoming clear in many ways. Already he has begun to leave the towns, and confine his peregrinations to the villages. In this collection so much prominence has been given to the stories of saints and holy personages, because it
