==The fables of Marie de France== right|220px|thumb|A miniature from a mediaeval book of hours The origin of the term 'Ysopet' dates back to the twelfth century, where it was first used by Marie de France, whose collection of 102 fables, written in Anglo-Norman octosyllabic couplets, she claims to have translated from an original work by Alfred the Great.
