Jean de La Fontaine Bio/Wiki, Net Worth, Married 2018
Jean de La Fontaine (IPA: [??? d? la f??t?n]; 8 July 1621 – 13 April 1695) was the most famous French fabulist and one of the most widely read French poets of the 17th century. He is known above all for his Fables, which provided a model for subsequent fabulists across Europe and numerous alternative versions in France, and in French regional languages.According to Flaubert, he was the only French poet to understand and master the texture of the French language before Hugo. A set of postage stamps celebrating La Fontaine and the Fables was issued by France in 1995.
He re-wrote in French a lot of Aesop's fables. But he also invented a lot and included in his versions a satire of French society. (e.g. the lion represented the King of France...).
