Iwill give brainerlist hich detail from the biography of aesop supports the idea that aesop was respected?
"the earliest text by a known author that refers to aesop's appearance is himerius in the 4th century, who says that aesop 'was laughed at and made fun of, not because of some of his tales but on account of his looks and the sound of his voice.'”
"in his public speeches on ethics and morals to the common people, he sometimes spoke out against the strict power structure of his time. for example, one of his fables, 'the frogs asking for a king,' is aesop’s attempt to convince the people not to overthrow their leader."
"although nobody knows for certain, the death of aesop is sometimes said to have been a punishment for stealing a gold or silver cup. his sentence for the crime was to be thrown from a cliff in the city of delphi."
"however, many of his stories were caustic and sarcastic, and he was often accused of being a fool with no respect for the gods."
