Illustrated: Minerva et Naufragus

790. Minerva et Naufragus. Dives quidam Atheniensis olim cum aliis nonnullis navigabat. Tempestate autem ingenti exorta, subversaque navi, reliqui omnes se natatu servarunt. Sed Atheniensis, subinde Minervam invocans, sescenta ei promittebat si ex undis eriperetur, cum adnatans ex naufragis unus “Cum Minerva,” inquit, “tu quoque manus move.” Qui in calamitates incidere, necesse est pro se laborare, ac deinde Deum quoque, ut auxilium afferat, invocare.

About This Blog

This is a companion blog for the book Mille Fabulae et Una: 1001 Aesop's Fables in Latin. You can get a free copy of the book in PDF format here.

This blog contains illustrated versions of the fables in that book. I'm still not through with illustrating all the fables - but I'm getting close! You can "page" through the fables one by one starting here: Fable 1. Leo et Canis. I've added navigation for fables 1-600, more to come. You can see the Index for Fables 1-600, listed by title.

For simplified versions of the fables, check out the Latin Via Fables blog. Be sure to check out the links below for information about the original sources for the fables in the book, indexes, and an errata list. To keep up with new content here and at the other Bestiaria Latina blogs, check out the Bestiaria Round-Ups.
