The following volume of Swedish folk-tales represents a careful choice, after the best original sources, of those examples of their kind which not only appeared most colorful and entertaining, but also most racially Swedish in their flavor. For the fairy-tales of each of the three Scandinavian countries, Sweden, Denmark and Norway, have a distinct local color of their own. The wealth of material available has made it possible to give due representation to most types of fairy-tales, from the stories of older origin, the tales of giant, troll, and werewolf, to such delightful tales as "Lasse, My Thrall", "The Princess and the Glass Mountain" and "Prince Hat under the Ground" colored with the rich and ornate stylistic garb of medieval chivalric poesy. There has been no attempt to "rewrite" these charming folk-and fairy-tales in the translation.

With their roots in old Norse mythology, the folk tales from Sweden are evocative and reveal ancient beliefs about the wonders and dangers of the natural world. Sweden is a land filled with unearthly creatures, with ethereal spirits drifting in forests, and mischievous trolls lurking in mountain caves. Some of these beings are welcoming and helpful, rewarding those who treat them and their surroundings with respect, while others set out to seduce, sometimes with devious intentions. The stories in this book have been collected and retold by Swedish storyteller Anna Maria from the lenght and breadth of the country. With tales ranging from dark and forebodung to humorous and farcical, this collection illustrates all aspects of the Swedish history.

"Swedish Folktales and Legends is a diverse and enchanting collection of more than one hundred and fifty tales, providing a representative sampling of Sweden's folklore tradition, which was first recorded in the mid-nineteenth century (around the time of the Brothers Grimm). Drawn primarily from the Swedish National Folklore Archives and private collections as well as from various other sources, they are all newly translated from the Swedish, many for the first time. Ranging from the ribald to the romantic from the rustic to the mystical, from farmers' jokes to epiphanies, these are stories in which sirens trolls, giants, tomtar (household spirits) and ghosts, as well as princesses, shepherds, dunces and rakes all come to life. The unique voices and spirit of storytellers from generations past are unerringly captured in these lively original translations."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
