Everyone Has At One Time Been Inspired Or Enchanted By Fairy Tales, With Their Evil Witches, Pure Princesses, Heroic Princes, And Happy Endings. Yet Over The Years, Most Of These Popular Tales Have Undergone Many Transformations, As Editors And Storytellers Have Shortened And Sentimentalized Them, As Well As Slanted Them To Suit The Demands Of The Time.Now Reissued, Iona And Peter Opie'S Magnificent The Classic Fairy Tales, Presents Twentyfour Of The Bestknown Fairy Tales In Their Original Written Form. Drawing On Years Of Expertise, The Editors Provide Introductions To Each Fairy Tale, Tracing The Development Of Each Story And Noting Points Of Interest. We Learn, For Example, That In A 17Th Century Version Of 'Sleeping Beauty', The Prince Actually Raped The Princess In Her Sleep. Goldilocks, It Turns Out, Evolved From The Little Old Woman Of The Original Story Into A Young Girl. Little Red Ridinghood Was Actually Eaten By The Wolf, And In An Early Version Of The 'Frog Prince,' The Princess Had To Sleep With The Frog To Free Him From His Spell.With Classic Tales From The Likes Of Charles Perrault, The Brothers Grimm, And Hans Christian Andersen, And The Works Of Such Famous Illustrators As Gustav Dore, Kate Greenaway, And George Cruikshank, The Classic Fairy Tales Brings To Life The Charm And Beauty Of These Timeless Favorites.
