Abstract

This article is devoted to the development of the fable genre in world literature and the work of its famous representatives - Aesop, La Fontaine and Gellert. Fables are considered as a means of expressing human behavior and teaching moral lessons through animals. Aesop's fables are a major part of ancient Greek literature, many of which shed light on social problems of their time. La Fontaine improved French fables in a new style, raised them to the level of art, and deeply analyzed human nature. Gellert, on the other hand, developed the fable genre in German literature, expressing moral values in a modern context. The article analyzes the unique style of each author and the modern significance of fables.
