Covering a period of more than one hundred years of work by renowned folklorists, these enlightening essays explore the timeless tale of Cinderella. In addition to the most famous versions of the story (Basile's Pentamerone, Perrault's Cendrillon, and the Grimm's Aschenputtel), this casebook includes articles on other versions of the tale from Russian, English, Chinese, Greek and French folklore. The volume concludes with several interpretive essays, including a psychoanalytic view from Dundes and a critique of the popularization of Cinderella in America. "Folklorists, scholars of children's literature, and feminists should appreciate particularly the wide scope of this collection . . . now in paperback with an updated Bibliographical Addendum. . . . Most helpful are the two-page introductions to each variant and to each essay which include a brief overview of the historical times as well as suggested additional sources for more discussion."-Danny Rochman, Folklore Forum "A milestone, a near complete source of primary and secondary materials. . . . The selected analytical writing include definitive classic and new discoveries, covering the whole range of methodological modes and theoretical perspectives from early forms and typology to myth-ritual, social-historical, anthropological, and psychoanalytical readings. The annotated bibliography is most helpful, illuminating, and comprehensive, encompassing publications in other Western languages and works by Asianists."-Chieko Mulhern, Asian Folklore Studies "One can imagine several dimensions on which psychoanalysts might find such a collection interesting: as examples of applied psychoanalysis, in relation to philosophical and cultural examination of imaginative material, in relation to child development, and in the correlations between folktales of a particular culture and individual histories."-Kerry Kelly Novick, Psychoanalytic Quarterly

This volume studies some of Edward Burne-Jones’s paintings, focusing specifically on his approach to nature, both through his observations about the real, physical world and through his symbolic interpretations of earthly and celestial realms. Burne-Jones’s appreciation for natural formations grew from his interests in astronomy and geography, and was expanded by his aesthetic sensibility for physical and metaphysical beauty. His drawings and watercolors carefully recorded the physical world he saw around him. These studies provided the background for a collection of paintings about landscapes with flora and fauna, and ignited an artistic furor that inspired the imagery he used in his allegorical, fantasy, and dream cycles about forests, winding paths, and sweet briar roses. This study focuses on two main ideas: Burne-Jones’s concept of ideal and artificial or magical nature expressed and represented in his drawings and paintings, and the way in which he fused his scientific knowledge about nature with some of the symbolism in his paintings.

“Go to the little tree on your mother’s grave. Shake it and wish for beautiful clothes, but come back before midnight.” In the Brothers Grimm’s version of a persecuted heroine’s struggle to escape the hardships she experiences following her widowed father’s marriage to a cruel woman with two beautiful but mean daughters, there are impossible tasks and helpful birds, a new name and an ash-dress, a Prince and three balls, a wish-tree and dresses of silver and gold. Can Aschenputtel find happiness and a future full of promise, or will her family succeed in keeping her as their cinder maid? In one book, experience new translations of the first and seventh versions of Aschenputtel (Cinderella) alongside Allerleirauh (All Kinds of Fur), a close variant from the ‘Cinderella Cycle’ of fairytales. Also included is another ATU-510 type fairytale, The True Bride, taken from the final edition of the Brothers Grimm’s Children's and Household Tales. [Folklore Type: ATU-510: Cinderella and Catskin – A + B (Persecuted Heroine + Unnatural Love)]

Ye Xian és la protagonista d'un relat escrit durant el període Tang que ha sigut definit com "La Ventafocs xinesa" i també com "la primera Ventafocs escrita". He realitzat una anàlisi del conte per demostrar que molts dels aspectes d'aquest, que han sigut associats a la cultura Tang, són de fet difícilment compatibles amb aquesta. A més, la història presenta una estructura narrativa trencada i certs elements difusos que mostren les dificultats en l'adaptació de motius estrangers. A fi de completar aquesta anàlisi he utilitzat tres perspectives metodològiques, els enfocaments Clasicista, Sinologista i Folclorista, d'acord amb tres classes de narrativa investigades, per estudiar aquesta història i el seu rol en el cicle de la Ventafocs. L'enfocament Clasicista analitza el treball d'escriptors que han investigat contes de fades i motius trobats a la literatura clàssica sense emmarcarla en un gènere literari. L'enfocament Sinologista, d'altra banda, pren aquest relat concret tenint en compte les circumstàncies específiques de la producció del text i el seu context, especialment la història literària xinesa i la llengua xinesa, així com el gènere, entès no únicament com el marc literari seguit per l'autor, sinó també d'acord amb les expectatives de la seva audiència. En darrer lloc l'enfocament Folclorista ens permet comparar aquest conte amb altres relats de la Ventafocs, tot i que el seu mètode tradicional, considerant totes les narratives com a contes populars, té el defecte de caure en una perspectiva eurocentrista i sovint massa simplista. Els elements que he pres per analitzar són els principals components dels relats de la Ventafocs, i al mateix temps representen el dramatis personae més important en el desenvolupament de la narrativa. El primer element analitzat són els protagonistes del relat xinès, Ye Xian, el fet que ella sigui una dona, així com el fet que la figura de la germanastra no es descrigui tan malvada com a les ulteriors versions de la Ventafocs. El segon element és l'antagonista, la madrastra: mentre les madrastres són comuns a la literatura xinesa, habitualment apareixen als relats amb característiques diferents, normalment presentant un protagonista masculí. El tercer element important són els ajudants. Ye Xian presenta un ajudant principal i altres dos breument esmentats; mentre el primer pot ser considerat l'adició d'un sistema cultural particular, les altres dues són relíquies de relats previs. El quart element és l'objecte màgic, que té un rol extremadament important en els relats; aquest objecte màgic específic, una sabata, té importants connotacions culturals i ha sigut interpretat com un senyal innegable de la presència de la cultura xinesa relacionada amb l'embenat dels peus, però aquesta investigació refuta aquestes concepcions. El cinquè element és la reunió social juntament amb la figura del rei; el futur marit de la protagonista no es descriu detalladament, mentre la importància de la reunió social, així com l'addició d'aquesta versió concreta del Cicle de la Ventafocs, s'examina amb detall. Totes les conclusions indiquen que aquest text és una combinació de narratives prèvies que contenen motius de la Ventafocs, convertint a Ye Xian en la primera versió que conté tots els elements presents en la Ventafocs moderna. Aquesta metodologia tripartita és, per tant, adaptada a aquest cas, mentre combina també enfocaments epistemològics per crear un paradigma funcional per investigacions futures en les quals els contes no puguin connectar-se fàcilment a un sistema literari precís i emmarcat en un gènere que representa una clau crucial per la interpretació.

Thanks to these generous donors for making the publication of the books in this series possible: Lloyd E. Cotsen; The Maurice Amado Foundation; National Endowment for the Humanities; and the National Foundation for Jewish Culture Tales from Arab Lands presents tales from North Africa, Yemen, Lebanon, Syria, and Iraq in the latest volume of the most important collection of Jewish folktales ever published. This is the third book in the multi-volume series in the tradition of Louis Ginzberg?s timeless classic, Legends of the Jews. The tales here and the others in this series have been selected from the Israel Folktale Archives (IFA), named in Honor of Dov Noy, at The University of Haifa, a treasure house of Jewish lore that has remained largely unavailable to the entire world until now. Since the creation of the State of Israel, the IFA has collected more than 20,000 tales from newly arrived immigrants, long-lost stories shared by their families from around the world. The tales come from the major ethno-linguistic communities of the Jewish world and are representative of a wide variety of subjects and motifs, especially rich in Jewish content and context. Each of the tales is accompanied by in-depth commentary that explains the tale's cultural, historical, and literary background and its similarity to other tales in the IFA collection, and extensive scholarly notes. There is also an introduction that describes the culture and its folk narrative tradition, a world map of the areas covered, illustrations, biographies of the collectors and narrators, tale type and motif indexes, a subject index, and a comprehensive bibliography. Until the establishment of the IFA, we had had only limited access to the wide range of Jewish folk narratives. Even in Israel, the gathering place of the most wide-ranging cross-section of world Jewry, these folktales have remained largely unknown. Many of the communities no longer exist as cohesive societies in their representative lands; the Holocaust, migration, and changes in living styles have made the continuation of these tales impossible. This series is a monument to a rich but vanishing oral tradition. This series is a monument to a rich but vanishing oral tradition.
