"Fables" by Jean de La Fontaine is a celebrated collection of fables written by the French poet and fabulist Jean de La Fontaine. First published in the 17th century, these fables are renowned for their wit, moral lessons, and the clever use of anthropomorphized animals to reflect human behavior and societal norms. La Fontaine's fables draw inspiration from classical sources, including Aesop's fables, as well as Indian and Middle Eastern folklore, yet they are uniquely adapted to reflect the cultural and social milieu of 17th-century France.

The collection is divided into twelve books, published in several volumes between 1668 and 1694. The first six books were released in 1668, followed by five more in 1678-1679, and the final twelfth book in 1694. Each fable typically concludes with a moral, encapsulating the essence of the story in a succinct and often poignant lesson. La Fontaine's fables cover a wide range of themes, including justice, power, greed, and the folly of human nature, making them not only entertaining but also deeply reflective of human virtues and vices.

La Fontaine's writing style is marked by its elegance, clarity, and rhythmic quality, which have contributed to the enduring popularity of his fables. His use of verse and the conversational tone of his narratives make the fables accessible to readers of all ages, while the layered meanings and sophisticated humor appeal to more mature audiences. The fables have been translated into numerous languages and have inspired countless adaptations in literature, theater, and visual arts.

Jean de La Fontaine's "Fables" hold a significant place in the canon of world literature, celebrated for their artistic merit and timeless wisdom. They continue to be studied, enjoyed, and revered for their ability to convey profound truths about human nature through the simple yet powerful medium of storytelling.
