'''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]
