Summary "Fábulas literarias" by Tomás de Iriarte is a collection of fables written in the late 18th century. The work comprises a series of allegorical tales featuring anthropomorphized animals that embody specific traits and behaviors, designed to convey moral lessons relevant to human society. Iriarte's fables are known for their wit and critique of social norms, making them both entertaining and thought-provoking. The opening of "Fábulas literarias" introduces the first fable, "El Elefante y otros animales," where the wise Elefante seeks to reform the various animals by addressing their flaws. He holds a gathering to persuade them against vices such as laziness and arrogance, resulting in mixed reactions among his audience. While some animals listen intently, others respond with hostility, showcasing the diversity of attitudes towards criticism and self-improvement. This fable sets the tone for the moral exploration throughout the collection, emphasizing themes of wisdom and the importance of self-awareness. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
