Drawing from Aesop's tales and his own experiences, Phaedrus transformed Greek prose fables into Latin poetry using iambic verse. These five books contain 95 animal stories and moral tales that both entertain and instruct, offering sharp commentary on Roman society and politics. His clear, concise style elevated the fable from mere rhetorical device to its own literary genre, though the work gained limited recognition in his time.
