Literary Fables of Yriarte (English)
by Tomás de Iriarte from 1782 (Spanish); this English trans. c. 1855
About
Iriarte's Fábulas Literarias (1782) are the most distinctive Spanish contribution to the European fable tradition: verse fables specifically about literary and artistic topics — bad critics, plagiarists, hacks, and pretenders — using animal parables to anatomize the literary world. They are witty, technically accomplished, and surprisingly modern in their targets. This English translation makes them accessible.
