Notes

Aesop's Fables are a collection of ancient moral stories attributed to Aesop, a Greek storyteller and fabulist who lived around the 6th century BCE. These fables typically feature anthropomorphic animals engaging in human-like behaviors and are known for imparting moral lessons or teachings through allegorical narratives. Each fable is relatively short and concludes with a moral or proverbial lesson that reflects on human behavior and virtues. Aesop's Fables have endured for centuries and have been translated into numerous languages, influencing literature, art, and popular culture worldwide. The timeless nature of these fables lies in their ability to convey valuable insights into human nature and ethics through the engaging and relatable characters of animals.
