Krylov's "Hops".

[edit]

The course seems to be similar, but the message is quite different. Can't find anything about a connection. https://archive.org/details/cu31924026691612/page/n146/mode/1up Omeganian (talk) 11:27, 30 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Actually the parallel is drawn in the main article on Krylov, but unfortunately the only reference is to Ralston's version. I've looked at the other two works mentioned under See Also but can't find anything there or in Fleury's commentary. Do you have access to Kenevich's Bibliographical and Historical Notes to the fables of Krilof? It doesn't seem to be on Google now.
It's a characteristic of fables that their morals change from age to age, author to author, and sometimes end up with a meaning completely opposite! Sweetpool50 (talk) 14:57, 30 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
It only mentions the year. No analysis. https://archive.org/details/bibliografiches00kenegoog/page/n189/mode/2up Omeganian (talk) 19:08, 30 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
