Book Description
Excerpt from Tales of the Good Woman, Vol. 1 of 2 To prevent any misconception, the Publishers take this Opportunity to state, that in a few in stances the titles of the works included in this se ries have been changed. That of Koningsmarke, who is an historical character, did not sufiiciently indicate that it was an American story; and that of the New Mirror for Travellers, which is alto gether a satirical work, was calculated to produce, and did produce, an idea in many purchasers that it was a mere traveller's guide. The Chronicles of Gotham were originally intended as a continua tion of Tales of the Good Woman; but it happen ing that a work was just at the time republished here with a similar title, it seemed proper that some other should be adopted. They now form the sec ond volume of Tales of the Good Woman, as originally designed. These alterations can pro duce no deception in the public, since it is suffi ciently known that, with the exception of a single volume of dramatic writings, the whole of this collection is a republication.

The Lost Princess
Author: Anne E. Duggan
Publisher: Reaktion Books
ISBN: 1789148138
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 271
Book Description
Once upon a time: the forgotten female fabulists whose heroines flipped the fairy tale script. People often associate fairy tales with Disney films and with the male authors from whom Disney often drew inspiration—notably Charles Perrault, the Brothers Grimm, and Hans Christian Andersen. In these portrayals, the princess is a passive, compliant figure. By contrast, The Lost Princess shows that classic fairy tales such as “Cinderella,” “Rapunzel,” and “Beauty and the Beast” have a much richer, more complex history than Disney’s saccharine depictions. Anne E. Duggan recovers the voices of women writers such as Marie-Catherine d’Aulnoy, Marie-Jeanne L’Héritier, and Charlotte-Rose de La Force, who penned popular tales about ogre-killing, pregnant, cross-dressing, dynamic heroines who saved the day. This new history will appeal to anyone who wants to know more about the lost, plucky heroines of historic fairy tales.
