Fábulas by Félix María Samaniego
QR code
"Fábulas" by Félix María Samaniego is a collection of moral fables written in the late 18th century. The work comprises various tales that employ animal characters to impart lessons about human behavior and ethics, similar to Aesop's Fables. Samaniego, often called the Spanish La Fontaine, aimed to make moral teachings accessible to children and students while enriching their understanding of language and literature. The beginning of "Fábulas" introduces the purpose behind Samaniego's
writing and his intent to create a collection that would serve educational needs. He highlights the popularity of fables among young learners, noting that these stories are often recited by children without full comprehension. This opening also emphasizes the necessity of accompanying annotations and vocabulary to aid both students and teachers in understanding the classical references embedded in the fables. Thus, Samaniego sets the stage for a compilation that is not only entertaining but also pedagogically valuable, as he emphasizes clarity and ease of comprehension for young audiences.
