Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Canadian Wonder Tales by Cyrus MacMillan. The author's has taken down from the lips of living people, pretty much as they were given to him, a series of stories which obviously contain many elements that have been handed down by oral tradition from some far-off past. They are mostly animal stories, with all the usual features of magic and transformation, articulate speech on the part of the animals, and interchange of more or less kindly offices between man and beast. The result is a collection of fables which-especially as illustrated by an eminent artist-will provide a book for children, and will give their elders also some food for reflection. Not that there is, so far as I have been able to discover, any moral about some at least of the tales. They are not "stories with a purpose." But they suggest to the adult reader the essential identity of many of the methods by which in a more or less remote antiquity the human race expressed itself in various parts of the world.

Book excerpt: The tales in this collection have been gathered in various parts of Canada. They have been selected from a larger collection of folk-tales and folk-songs made by the writer for more academic and scientific purposes. They are not the product of the writer's imagination; they are the common possession of the "folk." Many of them are still reverently believed by the Canadian Indians, and all are still told with seriousness around camp fires in forests and on plains, upon the sea and by cottage hearths. The dress in which they now appear may be new, but the skeleton of each story has been left unchanged.

The author's method resembles that followed by the brothers Grimm a century ago.

Book excerpt: Canadian Fairy Tales is a collection of 26 of Native American folk tales gathered from across Canada by Professor Cyrus MacMillan, who did not indicate the origin tribe of each story. The collection was originally published in 1922, and several tales within contain themes of creation. This is MacMillan's second collection of fairy tales. Like the Grimms Brothers did in Europe, MacMillan traveled the country seeking tales from the First Nations people in Canada. HOW GLOOSKAP MADE THE BIRDS RABBIT AND THE GRAIN BUYERS SAINT NICHOLAS AND THE CHILDREN THE FALL OF THE SPIDER MAN THE BOY WHO WAS CALLED THICK-HEAD RABBIT AND THE INDIAN CHIEF GREAT HEART AND THE THREE TESTS THE BOY OF THE RED TWILIGHT SKY HOW RAVEN BROUGHT FIRE TO THE INDIANS THE GIRL WHO ALWAYS CRIED ERMINE AND THE HUNTER HOW RABBIT DECEIVED FOX THE BOY AND THE DRAGON OWL WITH THE GREAT HEAD AND EYES THE TOBACCO FAIRY FROM THE BLUE HILLS RAINBOW AND THE AUTUMN LEAVES RABBIT AND THE MOON-MAN THE CHILDREN WITH ONE EYE THE GIANT WITH THE GREY FEATHERS THE CRUEL STEPMOTHER THE BOY WHO WAS SAVED BY THOUGHTS THE SONG-BIRD AND THE HEALING WATERS THE BOY WHO OVERCAME THE GIANTS THE YOUTH AND THE DOG-DANCE SPARROW'S SEARCH FOR THE RAIN THE BOY IN THE LAND OF SHADOWS The tales in this collection, like those in "Canadian Wonder Tales," were gathered in various parts of Canada--by river and lake and ocean where sailors and fishermen still watch the stars; in forest clearings where lumbermen yet retain some remnant of the old vanished voyageur life and where Indians still barter for their furs; in remote country places where women spin while they speak with reverence of their fathers' days. The skeleton of each story has been left for the most part unchanged, although the language naturally differs somewhat from that of the story-tellers from whose lips the writer heard them.

Download or read book Channeling Wonder written by Pauline Greenhill and published by Wayne State University Press. This book was released on 2014-10-06 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Television has long been a familiar vehicle for fairy tales and is, in some ways, an ideal medium for the genre. Both more mundane and more wondrous than cinema, TV magically captures sounds and images that float through the air to bring them into homes, schools, and workplaces. Even apparently realistic forms, like the nightly news, routinely employ discourses of “once upon a time,” “happily ever after,” and “a Cinderella story.” In Channeling Wonder: Fairy Tales on Television, Pauline Greenhill and Jill Terry Rudy offer contributions that invite readers to consider what happens when fairy tale, a narrative genre that revels in variation, joins the flow of television experience. Looking in detail at programs from Canada, France, Italy, Japan, the UK, and the U.S., this volume’s twenty-three international contributors demonstrate the wide range of fairy tales that make their way into televisual forms. The writers look at fairy-tale adaptations in musicals like Rodgers and Hammerstein’s Cinderella, anthologies like Jim Henson’s The Storyteller, made-for-TV movies like Snow White: A Tale of Terror, Bluebeard, and the Red Riding Trilogy, and drama serials like Grimm and Once Upon a Time. Contributors also explore more unexpected representations in the Carosello commercial series, the children’s show Super Why!, the anime series Revolutionary Girl Utena, and the live-action dramas Train Man and Rich Man Poor Woman. In addition, they consider how elements from familiar tales, including “Hansel and Gretel,” “Little Red Riding Hood,” “Beauty and the Beast,” “Snow White,” and “Cinderella” appear in the long arc serials Merlin, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and Dollhouse, and in a range of television formats including variety shows, situation comedies, and reality TV. Channeling Wonder demonstrates that fairy tales remain ubiquitous on TV, allowing for variations but still resonating with the wonder tale’s familiarity. Scholars of cultural studies, fairy-tale studies, folklore, and television studies will enjoy this first-of-its-kind volume.
