Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Encyclopedic in its coverage, this one-of-a-kind reference is ideal for students, scholars, and others who need reliable, up-to-date information on folk and fairy tales, past and present. Folktales and fairy tales have long played an important role in cultures around the world. They pass customs and lore from generation to generation, provide insights into the peoples who created them, and offer inspiration to creative artists working in media that now include television, film, manga, photography, and computer games. This second, expanded edition of an award-winning reference will help students and teachers as well as storytellers, writers, and creative artists delve into this enchanting world and keep pace with its past and its many new facets. Alphabetically organized and global in scope, the work is the only multivolume reference in English to offer encyclopedic coverage of this subject matter. The four-volume collection covers national, cultural, regional, and linguistic traditions from around the world as well as motifs, themes, characters, and tale types. Writers and illustrators are included as are filmmakers and composers—and, of course, the tales themselves. The expert entries within volumes 1 through 3 are based on the latest research and developments while the contents of volume 4 comprises tales and texts. While most books either present readers with tales from certain countries or cultures or with thematic entries, this encyclopedia stands alone in that it does both, making it a truly unique, one-stop resource.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 2012 CHOICE Outstanding Academic Title Most early fairy tale authors had a lot to say about what they wrote. Charles Perrault explained his sources and recounted friends' reactions. His niece Marie-Jeanne Lhéritier and her friend Marie-Catherine d'Aulnoy used dedications and commentaries to situate their tales socially and culturally, while the raffish Henriette Julie de Murat accused them all of taking their plots from the Italian writer Giovan Francesco Straparola and admitted to borrowing from the Italians herself. These reflections shed a bright light on both the tales and on their composition, but in every case, they were removed soon after their first publication. Remaining largely unknown, their absence created empty space that later readers filled with their own views about the conditions of production and reception of the tales. What their authors had to say about "Puss in Boots," "Cinderella," "Sleeping Beauty," and "Rapunzel," among many other fairy tales, is collected here for the first time, newly translated and accompanied by rich annotations. Also included are revealing commentaries from the authors' literary contemporaries. As a whole, these forewords, afterwords, and critical words directly address issues that inform the contemporary study of European fairy tales, including traditional folkloristic concerns about fairy tale origins and performance, as well as questions of literary aesthetics and historical context.

Download or read book Fairer Than a Fairy written by Gabrielle Sutherland and published by Createspace Independent Pub. This book was released on 2014-11-01 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When our lovely heroine is born so breathtakingly beautiful, her father, the King, is amazed by her astounding beauty, so he names her Fairer-than-a-Fairy. This one act signals an ancient enemy and sets in motion a series of dire events for the little princess, for the Dark Faerie World takes the baby's naming as a challenge. Fairer-than-a-Fairy will face kidnaping and imprisonment, a perilous journey, seemingly impossible tasks, an Ogre, a voyage across the sea, hidden dangers and tests of courage and will. She will also make alliances, find opportunities for true happiness, explore the meaning of friendship and justice, and contemplate the True Love. Fairer-than-a-Fairy is a True Hero Princess from centuries' worth of story, brought to us over time as a girl-become-woman, purposefully choosing her Path.Fairer-than-a-Fairy comes to us most recently through Andrew Lang's series of Fairy Books of Many Colors: twelve books containing 437 stories. “Fairer-than-a-Fairy” appeared in the Yellow Fairy Book published in 1894. Like other 19th century fairy tales, Andrew Lang's version of the story was greatly reduced from the original version, retaining only the most basic elements, leaving behind many of the most powerful pieces of the Heroine's Journey. The Fairy Tale Project at Wonder Tales for Today's Woman has traced the story through the centuries to discover the missing pieces, working through story cuts and mapping the elements of the story geographically to its origins in the Wonder Tales of Ancient Greece more than 800 years ago. The result is this marvelous Fairy Tale, relevant still, as the universal nature of a story about life and growing up, that lasts over time and space.
