Críticas

Claimed as the first modern general study of the ancient fairytale, this naturally combines the worlds of the academic and the non-specialist reader. The abiding impression for one of the latter group is that there is essentially nothing new under the sun when it comes to fairytale motifs and that the human condition seeks out and welcomes the same old universal tales. A riveting read even with all the academic apparatus, this study include four equally fascinating appendices.
