Only 'flaw' is discreet ownership signature to front free endpaper. Illustrated with colour and black & white plates. Includes Bibliography, Notes, and Index. xxi, 458 pages. "In this landmark study of the history and meaning of fairy tales, the celebrated cultural critic Marina Warner looks at storytelling in art and legend – from the prophesying enchantress who lures men to a false paradise, to jolly Mother Goose with her masqueraders in the real world. Why are storytellers so often women, and how does that affect the status of fairy tales. Are they a source of wisdom or a misleading temptation to indulge romancing." [Author's website]. Robust, professional packaging and tracking provided for all parcels. . 1st Edition. Hardback.

Description:
Chatto & Windus, London, 1994. Edition Unstated. Hardcover. Good Condition/Good. This study looks beyond the Freudian interpretation of fairy tales, to the tellers of the tales, and to the social and cultural contexts in which the tales are told and re-told through the centuries, from the ancient sibyls to the 18th-century "salonieres", and from Disney to Angela Carter.
