À propos de cet audio

Do you remember the timeless tales of the Ant and the Grasshopper, the Fox and the Sour Grapes, or the Boy Who Cried Wolf? These enchanting stories have been cherished for centuries, all attributed to the legendary Aesop, an Ancient Greek slave born around 620 B.C. Known as a master storyteller, Aesops fables illuminate our human weaknesses and strengths, collectively known as Aesops Fables. Although none of his original writings have survived, countless tales linked to him have been preserved through the ages, celebrated in various languages within a rich storytelling tradition that continues today. Many of these fables feature animals and inanimate objects with human traits, engaging in problem-solving and moral lessons. References to Aesops life can be found in the works of ancient scholars such as Aristotle, Herodotus, and Plutarch. The Aesop Romance, an ancient literary piece, presents a dramatized version of his life, portraying him as an unattractive slave who, through his wit, gains freedom and becomes a trusted adviser to rulers. While later traditions depict Aesop as a black Ethiopian, the essence of his fables remains a reflection of human behavior that resonates even after 2500 years.
