В книгу вошли басни Эзопа – легендарного древнегреческого раба – в переводах Льва Николаевича Толстого. Эзоп прославился тем, что слагал короткие истории про животных, в которых обличал человеческие пороки. Причём делал это так мастерски, что в народе с лёгкостью узнавали прототип героя. Басни Эзопа облетели весь мир и были переведены на разные языки, а строки из них стали крылатыми. Л.Н. Толстой сделал свой перевод эзоповских историй – максимально приближенный к оригиналу, но понятный деревенским детям, которых обучал писатель.

Sappho is widely recognized as one of the great poets of world literature, an author whose works have caused her readers to repeat in many different forms Strabo's amazed epithet when he wrote that she could only be called "a marvel." The reception of Sappho's poetry even through the twentieth century offers a case study of the conflicts induced by the sexual preferences she seemingly alludes to in her verse. Little is known with certainty about the life of Sappho, or Psappha in her native Aeolic dialect. She was born probably about 620 B.C. to an aristocratic family on the island of Lesbos during a great cultural flowering in the area.
