The most complete corpus of the proverbs and fables of Aesop ever
assembled Ben Edwin Perry's "Aesopica" remains the definitive
edition of all fables reputed to be by Aesop. The volume begins
traditionally with a life of Aesop, but in two different and
previously unedited Greek versions, with collations that record
variations in the major recensions. It includes 179 proverbs
attributed to Aesop and 725 carefully organized fables, for which
Perry also provides their eldest known sources. To better evaluate
the place of Aesop in literary history, Perry includes testimonies
about Aesop made by Greek and Latin authors, from Herodotus to
Maximus Planudes.
