Did Fairy Tales Exist in the Ancient World? (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Welcome to the fascinating world of books, where you can make friends, travel to wondrous places and think about things you'd never thought of before.

This book consists of 57 book reviews I wrote during 2020 as a blog. I have divided the content into twelve different sections each with a different theme, such as Victorian, Royalty, or Sicily.

Each review comes with an accompanying color illustration. This volume was designed and edited by Melissa Stevens of The Illustrated Author Design.

The title of this volume comes from one of my blogs Fairytale in the Ancient World by Graham Anderson which you can find in the Non-Fiction section of this book. Anderson's book argues that fairy tales (or folk tales) are much older than is commonly thought, some dating back thousands of years, like The Twelve Dancing Princesses which dates back to the time when The Tale of Gilgamesh was composed roughly 4,000 years ago.

Autorenporträt

Cynthia Sally Haggard was born and reared in Surrey, England. About 30 years ago she surfaced in the United States, inhabiting the Mid-Atlantic region as she wound her way through four careers: violinist, cognitive scientist, medical writer, and novelist.

Her first novel, Thwarted Queen, a saga about the Yorks, Lancasters & Nevilles whose family feud inspired Game of Thrones won the 2021 Gold Medal IPPY Award for Audiobook.

Her second novel, Farewell My Life, a dark historical about a hidden murderer and how far he will go to control the women around him, won the 2021 Independent Press Award for Women's Fiction.

Cynthia graduated with an MFA in Creative Writing from Lesley University, Cambridge MA, in June 2015. When she's not annoying everyone by insisting her fictional characters are more real than they are, Cynthia likes to go for long walks, knit something glamorous, cook in her wonderful kitchen, and play the piano.
