Synopsis "Hansel and Gretel - and Other Siblings Forsaken in Forests (Origins of Fairy Tales From Around the World) "

Hansel and Gretel - Origins of the Fairy Tales from around the World' contains seven different versions of the 'Hansel and Gretel' story. It includes an in-depth introduction to the fairy tale genre itself, as well as the folkloric provenance of the 'Hansel and Gretel' story. It encompasses the tale of 'Nennillo e Nennella' by Giambattista Basile, 'Hänsel und Gretel' by the Brothers Grimm, the Russian tale of 'Baba Yaga' and Joseph Jacob's 'Johnnie and Grizzle'. What is a fairy tale? The 'Origins of Fairy Tales from around the World' series helps to answer this question, by showcasing the amazing breath and diversity involved in classic fairy tales. It focuses on the unusual phenomenon that the same tales, with only minor variations, appear again and again in different cultures - across time and geographical space. Traditionally told as short stories for children, and for adults too, these popular fairy tales will be sure to delight both young and old. Beautifully illustrated, these story books combine the best story-telling, with the best art-work, in order that the two may be fully appreciated.
