This book describes the Aesopian fable as a hitherto underestimated function in renaissance culture and subsequently. Partly thanks to their traditions of origin--how fables came to be written, by whom, and why--traditions which (whether or not they believed them) were deeply interesting to sixteenth- and seventeenth- century readers, the stories of beasts, the birds, the trees, and the insects quickly acquired or recovered their function as a medium of political analysis and communication.
