Book Description
Lost in the woods, Ada finds a magic window in a tree. A window into another world! The dwarves invite her in, and Ada gladly accepts. Once inside the dwarf world, however, Ada is trapped there by a tragic mistake: Lithglib, one of her diminutive new friends, has accidentally broken the Calix, the silver cup that is the source of the dwarves' magic and the world's balance. Now forests grow dark, animals transform into monsters, and earthquakes threaten to tear the world apart. If Ada ever hopes to return home, she must accompany her new dwarf friends, a guilty Lithglib and his ridiculous friend Racket, on their quest to fix the cup before the world is destroyed--and if possible, help Lithglib find redemption.

The English Fable
Author: Jayne Elizabeth Lewis
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 9780521481113
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 248
Book Description
Between 1651 and 1740 hundreds of fables, fable collections, and biographies of the ancient Greek slave Aesop were published in England. In The English Fable, Jayne Elizabeth Lewis describes the national obsession with Aesop's fables during this period as both a figural response to sociopolitical crises, and an antidote to emerging anxieties about authorship. Lewis traces the role that fable collections, Augustan fable theory, and debates about the figure of Aesop played in the formation of a modern, literate, and self-consciously English culture, and shows how three Augustan writers - John Dryden, Anne Finch, and John Gay - experimented with the seemingly marginal symbolic form of fable to gain access to new centres of English culture. Often interpreted as a discourse of the dispossessed, the fable in fact offered Augustan writers access to a unique form of cultural authority.
