Aesop, an ancient Greek poet who was sold into slavery in the early
sixth century B.C, relied on animal stories to convey his key points
to his masters in court. AESOP'S FABLES are now classic, memorable
morality plays in which amusing animal characters drive home
thought-provoking morals to generations of listeners and modern day
readers. They illustrate what was fundamental to Greek culture yet
their appeal lies in logic we still understand.
