Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 354
Book Description
The purpose of this volume is to furnish our younger readers of the present generation with a fresh supply of stories—half legend, half fairy-tale—of a kind with which the children of an earlier time were more familiar. Herein you will find 19 illustrated stories from the Rhineland and old Roumania. Stories like: The Jipi The Serpent-Isle Vîrful Cu Dor Furnica The Caraiman The Stags’ Valley The Witch’s Stronghold Piatra Arsa (“The Burnt Rock”) Rîul Doamnei (“The River Of The Princess”) The Cave Of Jalomitza The Nixies’ Cleft The Flying Castle The Silver Nail A Doubting Lover A Legend Of Walpurgis-Night Seekers After Gold The Maiden’s Rock The Water-Snake (Parts I And II) The Little Glass-Man The first ten of these stories are taken from the German of Carmen Sylva, who has kindly given the translator her special permission to add them to the following collection of legends. Many of them are associated with the mountains which surround her home among the pine-woods of Sinaia (Prahova County, Romania); others belong to the districts traversed by the Pelesch (Peleș) river (a tributary of the Prahova River), the merry stream that dashes through the ravine at the foot of her garden, “whispering all sorts of wonders and secrets to those who have ears to hear.” The remaining tales in the volume are collected from different parts of Germany. “The Little Glass-man,” is a legend of the Black Forest, the other stories are all compiled from, or founded upon, legends to be met with in various German collections. So, we invite you to download and read these weird tales from Central and Eastern Europe. Tales which will entertain you for hours. 10% of the net income from the sale of this book will be donated to charities. ========== KEYWORDS/TAGS: Rhineland, Germany, Roumania, HM the Queen, : fairy tales, folklore, myths, legends, children’s stories, children’s stories, bygone era, fairydom, fairy land, classic stories, children’s bedtime stories, happy place, happiness, Jipi, Serpent-Isle, Vîrful Cu Dor, Furnica, Caraiman, Stags Valley, Witchs Stronghold, Piatra Arsa, Burnt Rock, Rîul Doamnei, River Of The Princess, Cave, Jalomitza, Nixies Cleft, Flying Castle, Silver Nail, Doubting Lover, Legend, Walpurgis Night, Seekers After Gold, Maiden’s Rock, Water, Snake, Little, Glass Man, Sinaia, Prahova, Pelesch, river, mountains, București, Transylvania, Wallachia, Braşov, Bucharest, Bucegi Mountains

The Brown Fairy Book
Author: Andrew Lang
Publisher: Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 394
Book Description
The stories in this Fairy Book come from all quarters of the world. For example, the adventures of 'Ball-Carrier and the Bad One' are told by Red Indian grandmothers to Red Indian children who never go to school, nor see pen and ink. 'The Bunyip' is known to even more uneducated little ones, running about with no clothes at all in the bush, in Australia. You may see photographs of these merry little black fellows before their troubles begin, in 'Northern Races of Central Australia, ' by Messrs. Spencer and Gillen. They have no lessons except in tracking and catching birds, beasts, fishes, lizards, and snakes, all of which they eat. But when they grow up to be big boys and girls, they are cruelly cut about with stone knives and frightened with sham bogies all for their good' their parents say and I think they would rather go to school, if they had their choice, and take their chance of being birched and bullied
