"This new collection of fairy tales, drawn from the Archives of Appalachia at East Tennessee State University and the special collections at Berea College, celebrates a lively current of storytelling going back centuries in Appalachia. The volume's editor, Stacy Sivinski, has written an introduction contextualizing the regional oral tradition that produced these adaptations and retellings of well-known tales. She explains what makes the stories distinctively Appalachian, and, indeed, readers will find traces of "Cinderella," "Beauty and the Beast," and "Snow White," all with a distinctly Appalachian flavor. The brave and clever women characters, so strong in Sivinski's selection, are given additional emphasis in specially commissioned photographs by local artist Jamie Sivinski. In contrast to a previous era of skeptical folklore criticism, this volume encourages readers to enter the fairy tale with a sense of wonder that is not less contemporary for being fantastic"-- Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |
