Publisher Description: 1887. Volumes 1 and 2 of the original works. The following papers are designed as a contribution to the history of European popular tales, the study of which - an it is both instructive and fascinating - has been, until within comparatively recent years, much neglected in this country, though its importance has long been recognized by eminent Continental scholars, the value of whose researches it would not be easy to overrate. It is believed the papers will prove both useful to English students of comparative folklore and folktales and interesting to intelligent readers generally. |
