4.9/5 (22879 ratings)

Description:Spells of Enchantment brings together the best literary fairy tales ever written, arranged to provide a sense of the history and evolution of this ancient genre. Focusing on the work of the most gifted writers of the great Western literary movements from classical times to the present, Jack Zipes's collection shows how some of literature's most creative minds have tried their hand at mixing the magic ingredients of the fairy tale - and how the genre has been marvelously transformed according to each writer's particular genius.Including more than sixty tales by such master practitioners of the art as Perrault, Voltaire, Goethe, Hoffmann, Hawthorne, Wilde, Yeats, Hesse, Thurber, Calvino, Philip K. Dick, Robert Coover, and Angela Carter, this authoritative, original, and unique volume is sure to bewitch readers of all ages.CONTENTSCupid and Psyche by Apuleius Of feminine subtlety by Gesta Romanorum The pig prince by Giovanni Straparola The merchant's two sons by Giambattista Basile Ricdin-Ricdon by Marie-Jeanne L'Heritier Riquet with the tuft by Charles Perrault Green serpent by Marie-Catherine D'Aulnoy Parslinette by Charlotte-Rose de La Force Prince Ahmed and the fairy Pari-Banou by Antoine Galland The queen Fantasque by Jean-Jacques Rousseau The white bull by Voltaire Libussa by Johann Karl August Musaus The philosophers' stone by Christoph Martin Wieland The fairy tale by Johann Wolfgang Goethe Eckbert the Blond by Ludwig Tieck A wondrous Oriental tale of a naked saint by Wilhelm Heinrich Wackenroder Hyacinth and Roseblossom by Novalis The mines of Falun by E.T.A.
