Once Upon the Disenchanted Ever After


Book Description

Once Upon the Disenchanted Ever After: The Truth about Fairy Tales by Mina Anna Poe This is Mina Anne Poe’s take on the classic fairy tales we grew up with when we were young. These somber and hauntingly enchanted tales are for a new generation of readers. These tales show a more bittersweet side of the “happily ever after” we all dreamed about when we were young, naïve and believed in love at first sight. These stories dispel that myth with every twist the characters must endure to find their perfect ending. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. There are people who are loyal – and ones who will betray. In every tale, there has to be a balance of good and evil. These tales are not as graphic or as disturbing as the ones written by the Brothers Grimm. Poe felt that terrifying the reader was the wrong way to entice them. Although these tales are dark, they are suitable for most readers. These stories have magic and enchantment. Poe has more tales to tell – just waiting patiently for one day!

The Golden Age of Folk and Fairy Tales


Book Description

In the late 18th and early 19th centuries, attitudes toward history and national identity fostered a romantic rediscovery of folk and fairy tales. This is the period of the Golden Age of folk and fairy tales, when European folklorists sought to understand and redefine the present through the common tales of the past, and long neglected stories became recognized as cultural treasures. In this rich collection, distinguished expert of fairy tales Jack Zipes continues his lifelong exploration of the story-telling tradition with a focus on the Golden Age. Included are one hundred eighty-two tales--many available in English for the first time--grouped into eighteen tale types. Zipes provides an engaging general Introduction that discusses the folk and fairy tale tradition, the impact of the Brothers Grimm, and the significance of categorizing tales into various types. Short introductions to each tale type that discuss its history, characteristics, and variants provide readers with important background information. Also included are annotations, short biographies of folklorists of the period, and a substantial bibliography. Eighteen original art works by students of the art department of Anglia Ruskin University not only illustrate the eighteen tale types, but also provide delightful—and sometimes astonishing—21st-century artistic interpretations of them.
