-'''Aesop''' was an Ethiopian slave in 600's B.C. [[Greece]].
-He is counted as the author of self-titled [[Aesop's Fables]]- a collection of short stories each containing a simple moral message.
-<blockquote>
-The true Fable, if it
-rise to its high requirements, ever aims at one great end and
-purpose representation of human motive, and the improvement of
-human conduct, and yet it so conceals its design under the
-disguise of fictitious characters, by clothing with speech the
-animals of the field, the birds of the air, the trees of the
-wood, or the beasts of the forest, that the reader shall receive
-advice without perceiving the presence of the adviser. [http://www.aesopfables.com/cgi/aesop1.cgi?1&Preface]
