| Resumen |
Aesop probably lived in the middle part of the sixth century B.C. A statement in Herodotus gives ground for thinking that he was a slave belonging to a citizen of Samos called Iadmon. Legend says that he was ugly and misshapen. There are many references to Aesop found the Athenian writers: Aristophanes, Xenophon, Plato, Aristotle and others. It is not known whwther he wrote down his fables himself, nor indeed how many of them are correctly attributed to his invention. |
