Bag om Dr. Bentley's Dissertations On The Epistles Of Phalaris, And The Fables Of Aesop (1698)

Dr. Bentley's Dissertations On The Epistles Of Phalaris, And The Fables Of Aesop is a book written by Charles Boyle, first published in 1698. The book contains two dissertations, the first one being on the Epistles of Phalaris, a collection of letters attributed to the ancient Greek tyrant Phalaris. Dr. Bentley, a renowned classical scholar, argues that the letters are actually a forgery written much later than Phalaris' time. The second dissertation is on the Fables of Aesop, a collection of moral tales attributed to the ancient Greek storyteller Aesop. Dr. Bentley examines the authenticity of the fables and argues that many of them were not actually written by Aesop but were added later by other authors. The book is considered a landmark in classical scholarship and is still widely studied and referenced today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
