description: "Egbert of Liège, in Latin: Ecbertus Leodiensis, was an 11th-century educator and author, working at the cathedral school in Liège. His main work, produced around 1023, is an educational collection entitled Fecunda Ratis, divided into two parts, the \"Prora\" (Prow), containing proverbs and classical and secular stories, and the \"Puppis\" with extracts from biblical and patristic writers. The collection contains the earliest known precursor of the Little Red Riding Hood story, entitled \"De puella a lupellis servata\". A critical edition of the Fecunda Ratis by Ernst Voigt was published in the series Monumenta Germaniae Historica in 1889. An English translation by Robert Gary Babcock has been published as book 25 in the Dumbarton Oaks Medieval Library. An extract describes the origins of the red riding hood:"
