Aesop's Fables, or the Aesopica, is a collection of fables credited to Aesop, a slave and storyteller believed to have lived in ancient Greece between 620 and 564 BCE. Of diverse origins, the stories associated with his name have descended to modern times through a number of sources and continue to be reinterpreted in different verbal registers and in popular as well as artistic media. The fables originally belonged to the oral tradition and were not collected for some three centuries after Aesop's death.

Viele der Märchen Hans Christian Andersens haben eine relativ offensichtliche, häufig aber auch eine weitere, hintergründige Moral. So ist zum Beispiel relativ leicht ersichtlich, dass der Kaiser in "Des Kaisers neue Kleider" nicht so leichtgläubig sein darf und die Betrüger ihn durchaus zu Recht als seines Amtes unwürdig entlarven. Aber letztlich nimmt die Erzählung nicht die eine Figur des lächerlichen Monarchen aufs Korn, sondern die ganze Gesellschaft und die kollektiven Überzeugungen, denen man sich zu unterwerfen hat.
