Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Not since Bruno Bettelheim's The Uses of Enchantment has there been such an illuminating contribution to the world of children's fairy tales. The Annotated Classic Fairy Tales is a remarkable treasure trove, a work that celebrates the best-loved tales of childhood and presents them through the vision of Maria Tatar, a leading authority in the field of folklore and children's literature. Into the woods with Little Red Riding Hood, up the beanstalk with Jack, and down through the depths of the ocean with the Little Mermaid, this volume takes us through many of the familiar paths of our folkloric heritage. Gathering together twenty-five of our most cherished fairy tales, including enduring classics like "Beauty and the Beast," "Jack and the Beanstalk," " ," and "Bluebead," Tatar expertly guides readers through the stories, exploring their historical origins, their cultural complexities, and their psychological effects. Offering new translations of the non-English stories by the likes of Hans Christian Andersen, Brothers Grimm, or Charles Perrault, Tatar captures the rhythms of oral storytelling and, with an extraordinary collection of over 300 often rare, mostly four-color paintings and drawings by celebrated illustrators such as Gustave Doré, George Cruikshank, and Maxfield Parrish, she expands our literary and visual sensibilities. As Tatar shows, few of us are aware of how profoundly fairy tales have influenced our culture. Disseminated across a wide variety of historical and contemporary media ranging from opera and drama to cinema and advertising, they constitute a vital part of our storytelling capital. What has kept them alive over the centuries is exactly what keeps life pulsing with vitality and variety: anxieties, fears, desires, romance, passion, and love. Up close and personal, fairy tales tell us about the quest for romance and riches, for power and privilege, and, most importantly, they show us a way out of the woods back to the safety and security of home. Challenging the notion that fairy tales should be read for their moral values and used to make good citizens of little children, Tatar demonstrates throughout how fairy tales can be seen as models for navigating reality, helping children to develop the wit and courage needed to survive in a world ruled by adults. This volume seeks to reclaim this powerful cultural legacy, presenting the stories that we all think we know while at the same time providing the historical contexts that unlock the mysteries of the tales. The Annotated Classic Fairy Tales is a volume that will rank as one of the finest fairy tale collections in many decades, a provocative and original work to be treasured by students, parents, and children.

A Glimpse Inside It happened that where the Prince's father lay buried, there grew a rose tree--a most beautiful rose tree, which blossomed only once in every five years, and even then bore only one flower, but that was a rose! It smelt so sweet that all cares and sorrows were forgotten by him who inhaled its fragrance. And furthermore, the Prince had a nightingale, who could sing in such a manner that it seemed as though all sweet melodies dwelt in her little throat. So the Princess was to have the rose, and the nightingale; and they were accordingly put into large silver caskets, and sent to her.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This definitive collection of work from Hans Christian Andersen—one of the immortals of world literature—not only includes his own notes to his stories but is the only version available in trade paperback that presents Andersen's fairy tales exactly as he collected them in the original Danish edition of 1874. Recognizing the literary merit of Andersen's own simple colloquial language, which Victorian translators and their imitators very often altered to sentimentalize or vulgarize, translator Erik Haugaard has remained faithful to the original text. The fairy tales Hans Christian Andersen wrote, such as "The Snow Queen," "The Ugly Duckling," "The Red Shoes," and "The Nightingale," are remarkable for their sense of fantasy, power of description, and acute sensitivity, and they are like no others written before or since. Unlike the Brothers Grimm, who collected and retold folklore, Andersen adopted the most ancient literary forms of the fairy tale and the folktale and distilled them into a genre that was uniquely his own.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fairy stories of Hans Christian Andersen are distinct from those compiled with the aid of the Brothers Grimm. Not because of their content material a lot as their provenance. A little-known truth amongst individuals who are acquainted with the testimonies of little mermaids and unsightly ducklings is that some of the maximum beloved testimonies penned by way of Andersen virtually have their foundation in his autobiography. Take that duckling that turns out to be a swan, as an example.Andersen grew up not simply dealing with the ravages of poverty, however the ravages of a mom attempting as great she should to cope with encroaching intellectual illness. Her tries to impose a restrictive popularity of conformity upon younger Hans become carried out-just like the mother duck's-with the first-rate of intentions. Just like the mother duck, the writer's mom had no concept her perception became reality became no longer pretty actual.The autobiographical idea of The Red Shoes is greater direct: they have been born out of his obsessive interest to the pronounced squeaking which issued forth from his new boots offered mainly to put on at some point of his church affirmation rite. The attention interested in the squeaky boots essentially allowed them to take on an existence of their very own, just like the title shoes of his fairy story which in turn stimulated a traditional movie.Andersen's fairy stories have retained their strength to enchant in large part by using virtue of delineating standard themes. If the universality of the memories are capable of making character connections with readers across a broad range of social strata, it must no longer be at all unexpected they spring from non-public revel in. Anderson turned into a creator committed to the purity of literary creation. He grew embittered looking less talented writers revel in extra reputation and success with the aid of appealing to fads. Why wouldn't the sort of creator eventually conceive a tale like "The Emperor's New Clothes"?The stress of innocence that constantly come truth to stand with the deceptive nature of the person international that recurs in the fairy memories of Hans Christian Andersen talk to a mature mind that never lost touch with the ache of youth. A ache that greater palpable and tangible within the autobiographical worlds of Andersen's Snow Queen and Tin Soldier than within the worlds of Cinderella and Snow White assembled by the Grimms, however created by way of others.
