William Makepeace Thackeray published The Rose and the Ring in 1855. He wrote it chiefly for the entertainment of his two daughters. In this burlesque fairy tale, Thackeray presents a royal family in which the prince and the princess have been lightly cursed by the Fairy Blackstick to have a little misfortune. Prince Giglio has to fight to regain his throne, while Princess Roslaba must work as a maid until her identity is revealed.
