Around 2,500 years ago, it is believed, Greek storyteller and fabulist (creator of fables) Aesop created, and gathered from other sources, hundreds of fables. Fables are short fictional stories that teach a moral lesson, the so-called moral. They would feature animals, legendary creatures, plants, inanimate objects, or forces of nature that are given human qualities, such as the ability to speak. Over the centuries, Aesop’s Fables have been translated into many languages and haven often been re-written, according to local culture. Armagh Robinson Library holds several 17th and 18th Century publications on Aesop’s Fables, as well as works inspired by or based on Aesop’s legacy. This exhibit showcases some of these works. • •	4 The moral of the story is… The legacy of Aesop’s Fables in Armagh Robinson Library The moral of the story is… The legacy of Aesop’s Fables in Armagh Robinson Library June 4, 2019, 10:00 am - 4:00 pm The moral of the story is… The legacy of Aesop’s Fables in Armagh Robinson Library Apart from the New Testament, no other work written in Greek is more widely or better known than Aesop’s Fables.
