Download or read book Danish Fairy Tales written by Svendt Grundtvig and published by . This book was released on 2003-03-01 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These Danish folk-tales were originally collected by Svendt Grundtvig, a Danish professor and philologist (1824-1883). He found that throughout all the country districts, men and women were telling stories and reciting ballads that they had learned from their grandmothers, who, in their turn, had heard them from crooners of old songs, and tellers of old tales. Professor Grundtvig realized that these echoes of an earlier time were precious; that, if they were not perpetuated in written form, they would be lost. It was a labor of love on his part to collect these tales; a labor that lasted over twenty years, and that enlisted the aid of many of his countrymen. Grundtvig says that he has kept the simplicity and artlessness of the oral tradition; and that, in the case of varying versions from different parts of the country, he has taken the purer and more complete form, but has always preserved the epic unity.The translator of these tales spent a part of his boyhood in Denmark, where his father was United States Minister. There he heard many of these stories, which were told him by a manservant who came from Jutland. Jensen had not read any of these tales; but they, with many others, were stored in his memory. He had always known them, he said.

Download or read book In Search of the Swan Maiden written by Barbara Fass Leavy and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 1994 with total page 387 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Challenges the conventional interpretations of the worldwide folktale in which a swan maiden is captured, forced to marry and serve a human man, and eventually finds the key (usually her old skin) and escapes. Leavy (English, City U. of New York) considers the motive in the context of other animal brides, and animal grooms, and finds women socializing other women in a man's world, how myths of feminine evil spread, and how ominous meanings are obscured by traditional happy endings.
