Bemerkung:

Commentary by Pedro Badenas, Rita de Tata, Josefina Planas, Text: engl. /spanish.Aesop's Fables translated in latin by Gualterius Anglicus. Gualterus Anglicus (Medieval Latin for Walter the Englishman) was an Anglo-Norman poet and scribe who produced a seminal version of Aesop's Fables (in distichs) around the year 1175. With its 146 intensely colored miniatures arranged in frames, this fourteenth-century manuscript is a splendid Gothic edition of Aesop's fables. The Latin text in Gothic script, adorned with decorated initials and borders, tells about animals speaking and behaving like humans.
