  Comments: 
Both "exemplum" and "apologue" are obscure enough that I had to look them up, so this entry seems to me to deserve a more comprehensible gloss.

I couldn't find any support in Daijisen or Meikyo for the "parable/moral fable" specific meaning that I think the original gloss of exemplum/apologue implies. (Eijiro lists "exemplum".)
