The Fox in Global Folk Tales

Beschreibung

The Fox in Global Folk Tales collects stories from across the centuries and continents that feature folklore's all-time animal antihero. The rich storytelling tradition tapped into in this book says as much about us as it does the sly red beast this collection is about. Why are the adventures of a thief and a scoundrel so alluring? Why isn't there a selfless beast in the history of mythology that rivals this selfish one for number of stories or degree of interest? We may not know but we do know these fables were told long ago, are entertaining, and deserve to be preserved.
