Summary:
This [book] includes over sixty fairy tales from around the world and across the ages, many translated for this edition, organized by an expanded sense of tale type into nine groupings ; an all-new section on "natureculture," exploring interactions among humans, animals, and the environment in fairy tales; a revised introduction and headnotes to each tale type by Maria Tatar, showing how fantastical stories we tell children really tell us so much more about ourselves; a robust selection of criticism, much of it new to or exclusively written for this Third Edition, responding to student interest in themes and lenses such as queer adaptations, disability studies, and decolonization; and an updated selected bibliography. -- Provided by publisher.
