Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Secret Commonwealth is a guide to fairies, doppelgängers, wraiths, and other beings that its author Robert Kirk, an unusually inquisitive seventeenth-century Scottish minister, identifies as being ?of a middle nature betwixt man and angel.? Circulated in manuscript by its author, whose religious and scientific interests drew him at some genuine personal risk to investigate the hidden realities of the spiritual world, this short work was first published by Sir Walter Scott and then again in the late nineteenth century in an edition prepared by the famous collector of fairy tales, Andrew Lang, and dedicated to Robert Louis Stevenson. Nonetheless, Kirk’s work, which is a fine example of English prose, an important document in the history of ideas, and an enchanting introduction to fairy lore has remained a rarity"--Publisher description.

Download or read book The Book of Elves and Fairies written by Frances Jenkins Olcott and published by . This book was released on 1918 with total page 443 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Olcott's The Book of Elves and Fairies is a wonderful introduction into the world of fairies, leprechauns, pixies, elves and a host of other magical creatures. The book includes both classic children's stories like "Cinderella" as well as similarly lovely, though lesser-known tales. Stories from around the world were chosen for the collection, and the book includes myths and legends from regions like Ireland, China, Japan, England and the South Seas. The fairy tales have been carefully translated into English, and, because they are intended for children, any frightening elements have been eliminated from the stories. The editor's goal in assembling the book was to choose stories that possessed qualities to help grow the minds of young people and to enliven their imaginations. The stories in the book "stimulate a child's imagination, feed his fancy, and satisfy poetically his groping after things unseen." In all, the book serves as an important reference for those interested in learning about magical creatures and fantastic entertainment for the casual reader.
