Produktbeschreibung
This book offers a critical analysis of the reworkings of and commentary on traditional folk and fairy tales. Chapters are organized by tale theme. In each chapter, the authors summarize and discuss the tales, give a chronological overview of the critical interpretations, then list the tale's reworkings, organized chronologically and by form. Internet resources are cited, and classroom extensions and bibliographies follow. The book can be used as a reference and professional reading by storytellers, including librarians, and folklorists; and as a supplementary text in college courses on folklore and storytelling. It will also appeal to writers who work in this area.
Altmann and de Vos are back with more great ideas for exploring contemporary reworkings of classic folk and fairy tales that appeal to teen readers. If you loved New Tales for Old (Libraries Unlimited, 1999), this new work will be sure to please. Following the same format, each story includes tale type numbers, motifs, and lists of reworkings arranged by genre, and suggestions for classroom extensions. INSIDE: Beauty and the Beast, Jack and the Beanstalk, Tam Lin, Thomas the Rhymer, and five fairy tales by Hans Christian Andersen.
