Aesop

The Greek fabulist Aesop or Esop (pronounced /ˈeɪsɒp/ ay-sop or /ˈiːsəp/ ee-səp, Greek: Αἴσωπος, Aisōpos) is given the dates c. 620-564 BCE and was by tradition born a slave (δοῦλος). Although known for the fables ascribed to him, Aesop's existence remains uncertain and no writings by him survive. Numerous fables appearing under his name were gathered across the centuries and in many languages in a storytelling tradition that continues to this day. In many of these tales animals speak and have human characteristics.

Scattered details of Aesop's life can be found in ancient sources, including Aristotle, Herodotus, and Plutarch. An ancient literary work called The Aesop Romance tells an episodic, probably highly fictional version of his life, including the traditional description of Aesop as a strikingly ugly slave who by his cleverness acquires freedom and becomes an adviser to kings and city-states. A later tradition (dating from the Middle Ages) depicts Aesop as a black Ethiopian. Depictions of Aesop in popular culture over the last 2500 years have included several works of art and his appearance as a character in numerous books, films, plays, and television programs.

Aesop or Æsop (from the Greek Aisopos) (c. 620BC – c. 560BC), was an ancient Greek fabulist of possibly African descent (his Greek name means Ethiopian or black man in today's parlance), by tradition a slave who credited the African goddess Isis for his gift. Aesop's Fables are still taught as moral lessons and used as subjects for various entertainments, especially children's plays and cartoons.

This Aesop Fable going to become more popular?
Q. "Belly and the Other Members" by Aesop is helpful in appreciating this new application of research? Nature magazine reports Dec 06 that stomach microbes may "lead to a way of fighting malnutrition" around the world! Jeffrey Gordon, Washington University Genome Sciences says, "For decades, doctors have treated bacteria in a WARLIKE manner, yet most encounters we have with (the unseen world of) microbes are very beneficial." 1st response: This fable has an all-time value: never look down on backstage-lowes t level work. People on top have many more supporting people performing menial/humbler tasks. Regarding the beneficial action of bacteria, "stomach microbes" are indispensable, but they can… [cont.]

A. Aesop's fables will not become more popular, because none of our children know or care about them. All thanks to our federal government's wonderful educational (and social indoctrination) system. After all, how can lowly Aesop compete with Hollywood glitz and glamor. As for Dr. Gordon, was he referring to Campylobacter jejuni or Helicobacter pylori. These are pathogenic bacteria and cause severe problems.So it is no wonder that Physicians have treated them aggressively, the real problem lies in the fact that our antibiotics are broad-spectrum and have the terrible side effect of killing off the good/beneficial bacteria as well. Suggest that Dr. Gordon turn his attention to the Pharmaceutical Companies that produce the… [cont.]
