ABC-CLIO CLASSIC FOLK AND FAIRY TALES
Jack Zipes, Series Editor
a wealth of stories from around the world and published them in
English translations for the delight of general readers, young and old.
Most of these anthologies have been long out of print.
The ABC-CLIO Classic Folk and Fairy Tales series brings back to
life these key anthologies of traditional tales from the golden age of
folklore discovery. Each volume provides a freshly typeset but otherwise
virtually unaltered edition of a classic work and each is enhanced by an
authoritative introduction by a top scholar. These insightful essays dis-
cuss the significance of the collection and its original collector; the
original collector’s methodology and translation practices; and the orig-
inal period context according to region or genre.
Certain to be of interest to folklorists, these classic collections are also
meant to serve as sources for storytellers and for sheer reading pleasure,
reviving as they do hundreds of folk stories, both reassuringly familiar
and excitingly strange.
