📙 Excerpt from La Cigale Chez les Fourmis: Comédie en un ActeThe phenomenal success of the book conducted him to the highest honor that France has to bestow on her men of letters, a seat among the Forty Immortals. His immense °popularity could never induce him to resume his literary work.There are some who assign Labiche to a positively high position in literature. Though always light and easy, his dramas are never immoral and in this play it has been necessary to make no changes and to omit nothing out of a regard for propriety.The title of the play is manifestly taken from La Fontaine's famous fable, La Cigale et la Fourmi, an adaptation from Aesop.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
