Aesop
Aesop is a legendary figure believed to have been an ancient Greek storyteller, thought to have lived around the 6th century BCE. While little is known about his life, he is traditionally credited with creating a collection of fables that convey moral lessons through simple, engaging stories featuring animals.
Though Aesop himself did not write down his fables, they were passed down through oral tradition and later compiled by various authors. His fables have influenced literature and storytelling for centuries, inspiring countless adaptations across cultures. Aesop's legacy endures in the moral lessons of his tales, which continue to resonate in modern society.
