Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Tales of the Fairies: And of the Ghost World; Collected From Oral Tradition in South-West Munster Mr. Jeremiah Curtin needs no introduction to the lovers of Gaelic lore and legend. By the publication of his two volumes, Myths and Folk-Lore of Ireland (Boston: Little, Brown & Co.; London: S. Low Co., 1890) and Hero Tales of Ireland (Boston: Little, Brown & Co., 1894), as well as of the large collection which, as yet, has only appeared in the Sunday edition of The Sun (New York), he has approved himself the foremost collector of Irish oral literature, and has brought together an amount of material which, for intrinsic interest, holds its own by the side of Campbell of Islay's Popular Tales of the West Highlands. The present collection supplements the two I have just cited. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Children into Swans written by Jan Beveridge and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2014-10-01 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fairy tales are alive with the supernatural - elves, dwarfs, fairies, giants, and trolls, as well as witches with magic wands and sorcerers who cast spells and enchantments. Children into Swans examines these motifs in a range of ancient stories. Moving from the rich period of nineteenth-century fairy tales back as far as the earliest folk literature of northern Europe, Jan Beveridge shows how long these supernatural features have been a part of storytelling, with ancient tales, many from Celtic and Norse mythology, that offer glimpses into a remote era and a pre-Christian sensibility. The earliest stories often show significant differences from what we might expect. Elves mingle with Norse gods, dwarfs belong to a proud clan of magician-smiths, and fairies are shape-shifters emerging from the hills and the sea mist. In story traditions with roots in a pre-Christian imagination, an invisible other world exists alongside our own. From the lost cultures of a thousand years ago, Children into Swans opens the door on some of the most extraordinary worlds ever portrayed in literature - worlds that are both starkly beautiful and full of horrors.
