Reynard the Fox 'hero of several medieval European cycles of versified animal tales that satirize contemporary human society. Though Reynard is sly amoral cowardly and self- seeking he is still a sympathetic hero whose cunning is a necessity for survival. He symbolizes the triumph of craft over brute strength usually personified by Isengrim the greedy and dull-witted wolf.The main literary tradition of Reynard the Fox descends from the extant French 'branches' of the Roman de Renart about 30 in number nearly 40000 lines of verse. The facetious portrayal of rustic life the camel as a papal legate speaking broken French the animals riding on horses and recounting elaborate dreams all suggest the atmosphere of 13th-century France' Merriam-Webster's Encyclopedia of Literature.

The Reynard stories were already established as a coherent collection in the 12th century and were first printed in 1479 in a Dutch prose edition. They became especially well known when translated into English and adapted for Caxton's 1481 edition in 43 chapters. The publisher Edward Alde in London began work on an extensive revision of Caxton's text with many new additions but he published only the first part probably in 1620 the first edition of the present part 1 containing 25 chapters some corresponding with chapters in Caxton's edition and some not. Although the second part would have to wait 52 years the first part quickly became the standard English version of the Reynard the Fox stories with 8 editions from 1620 to 1671. Its language was modernized giving both a view of the stories as they were known through most of two centuries and insights into English values and culture of the time. In 1684 Brewster added the present first edition of part 3 giving the adventures of Reynard's son Reynardine.With 20th-century woodcut bookplate. The woodcut on C1 of part 1 is printed upside down.
