This collection of 18 Romanian folk and fairy tales contains translations of tales from Romanian which, however, comprise but a small portion of the inexhaustible treasure that exists in the nation. While the originals are scattered throughout Romanian literature this volume is an excellent companion to “Roumanian Fairy Tales and Legends” ISBN: 978-8-827544-00-6 which contains a further 15 children’s tales from Romania. Given Romania’s long and diverse cultural history, it is no surprise that the country has such a rich heritage of folk tales, fairy tales, and legends. It is also fortunate that so many of these stories survived the country’s turbulent history and were passed down throughout the ages to countless Romanian children and are now retold here. The exquisite stories in this volume are: Stan Bolovan The Wonderful Bird The Twins With the Golden Star. Youth Without Age and Life Without Death The Little Purse with two Half-pennies Mogarzea and His Son Cunning Ileane The Princess and the Fisherman Little Wild-Rose The Voice of Death The Old Woman and the Old Man The Pea Emperor The Morning Star and The Evening Star The Two Step-Sisters The Poor Boy Mother's Darling Jack Tellerchen The Fairy Aurora In approximately 82 BC, the rule of the Dacian kings was replaced by the Romans, who, in turn, were forced out by the Goths, layer supplanted by the Huns a;; by the 4th C. BC. After this, a sequence of nomadic rulers, including the Gepids, the Avars, the Bulgars, the Pechenegs, and the Cumans, ruled the area. By the Middle Ages, Romanians lived in three distinct principalities: Wallachia, Moldavia, and Transylvania, which were later ruled by the Austro-Hungarian and Ottoman empires. In 1859, Moldavia and Wallachia united under Prince Alexandru Ioan Cuza, but it was not until the end of WWI, in 1918, that Bessarabia, Bukovina and Transylvania proclaimed unions with the Kingdom of Romania and the modern state of Romania was born. 10% of the publisher’s profits from the sale of this book will be donated to the Relief Fund for Romania. =============== TAGS: Romanian, Roumanian, Folklore, Fairy tales, myths, legends, children’s stories, bedtime, fables, traditions, Stan Bolovan, Wonderful Bird, Twins, Golden Star, Youth Without Age, Life Without Death, Little Purse, two Half-pennies, Mogarzea, Son, Cunning Ileane, Princess, Fisherman, Little Wild-Rose, Voice, Death, Old Woman, Old Man, Pea Emperor, Morning Star, Evening Star, Two, Step-Sisters, Poor Boy, Mother, Darling, Jack, Tellerchen, Fairy, Aurora

Here he stood before the Emperor Full of big plans for all the peas he would harvest (if he got around to planting the three little peas he had found) the penniless boaster began regaling his highness with wild tales of places far away -- until the Emperor was listening with mouth agape I see you have traveled widely, know a great deal, and are cunning and experienced, said the Emperor. I will gladly give you my daughter in marriage. The braggart now regretted having told so many lies -- for what would happen if the Emperor learned he was not, indeed, the Pea Emperor he made himself out to be? The Pea Emperor and seventeen other folktales capture the charm of a Roumania of long ago, and that perhaps never was -- full of dreams and magic.

"Legends and Folklore: Eighteen Fairy Tales from Romania" were collected by Mite Kremnitz, a German writer who was a good friend of Queen Elisabeth and co-authored several novels with the queen during the 1800's. Both women used pen names for this purpose. Queen Elisabeth wrote under the name Carmen Sylva, while Mite Kremnitz signed her works as Ditto and Idem. Mite Kremnitz (1852-1916), born Marie von Bardeleben, was the daughter of the famous surgeon Heinrich Adolf von Bardeleben. She grew in Greifswald, London and, starting with 1868, in Berlin. Later she married the doctor Wilhelm Kremnitz and moved with him to Bucharest in 1875. The couple had 2 children. In Romania, Marie became good friends with the Queen Elisabeth and was appointed her maid of honor. Although Mite signed some of her collaborative works with the queen as Ditto and Idem, in 1990 she began authoring under her name, Mite Kremnitz.
