Aesop (Storyteller)

Aesop was an ancient Greek storyteller, believed to have lived around the 6th century BCE. He is best known for his collection of fables—short stories featuring animals that teach moral lessons. These tales often convey human virtues and vices, such as wisdom, folly, and justice, through clever narratives. Famous examples include "The Tortoise and the Hare" and "The Boy Who Cried Wolf." Aesop's fables have been passed down through generations, influencing literature, ethics, and storytelling worldwide. They remain timeless moral lessons, valued for their simplicity and depth of insight into human nature.
