My question is regarding the title of Mark Twain's story "Some Learned Fables, For Good Old Boys And Girls"
What does "learned" in the title mean?
I checked the dictionary, and I think I can relate to two meanings.
1. Scientific. You will understand how this is significant to the story if you read it.
2. Taken from generation to generation, from father to son.
I think I am more inclined toward the latter.
Please let me know what you think.
Edit: I found another example that I think is similar.
The Learned Tales of Medieval Ireland.
