註釋
No less a poet than the great
Seamus Heaney said of Norman Shapiro's
Fifty Fables of La Fontaine,
"It is a pleasure to open a book as sure and sly as these translations.
. . . He gets the tune right and the tone right, and manages to echo both
the folk wisdom and the poker-faced formality of the originals."
As surely as La Fontaine followed
Aesop, Shapiro has now made fabulous fifty
more
fables of the wonderful
La Fontaine--among them "The Hare and the Tortoise," "The
Old Man and the Ass," and "The Frogs Who Asked for a King."
David Schorr has just as captivatingly illustrated them.
