Book excerpt: In Russian folklore Baba Yaga (pronounced Buh Bah Yug Gah) is perhaps one of the most popular and recognizable characters. She is an old lady that lives deep in a forest in a hut on chicken legs. She flies around on a mortar, kidnaps small children, knows the presence of a human being by sniffing the air and knows many, many secrets. In most Russian folk tales, Baba Yaga is portrayed as a real witchy witch. She supposedly fries and eats humans, especially small children, but usually her horrifying intentions do not realize because her victims manage to escape at the last minute. Russian kids learn about Baba Yaga at early age; so, it is a good idea for anyone who wants to know about Russian language and culture to get familiar with the old lady. In this book, the reader will find four stories about Baba Yaga based on popular Russian fairy tales. The texts are edited for easier reading by all learners of Russian. - This book also available as Amazon MP3 download ( ASIN: B009B0DEDA). You can listen to an audio recording of these Russian texts.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Baba Yaga is an ambiguous and fascinating figure. She appears in traditional Russian folktales as a monstrous and hungry cannibal, or as a canny inquisitor of the adolescent hero or heroine of the tale. In new translations and with an introduction by Sibelan Forrester, Baba Yaga: The Wild Witch of the East in Russian Fairy Tales is a selection of tales that draws from the famous collection of Aleksandr Afanas'ev, but also includes some tales from the lesser-known nineteenth-century collection of Ivan Khudiakov. This new collection includes beloved classics such as "Vasilisa the Beautiful" and "The Frog Princess," as well as a version of the tale that is the basis for the ballet "The Firebird." The preface and introduction place these tales in their traditional context with reference to Baba Yaga's continuing presence in today's culture--the witch appears iconically on tennis shoes, tee shirts, even tattoos. The stories are enriched with many wonderful illustrations of Baba Yaga, some old (traditional "lubok" woodcuts), some classical (the marvelous images from Victor Vasnetsov or Ivan Bilibin), and some quite recent or solicited specifically for this collection

Book excerpt: Baba Yaga is a well-known witch from the folklore tradition of Russia, Ukraine, and Belarus. A fascinating and colorful character, she resembles witches of other traditions but is in many ways unique. Living in the forest in a hut that stands and moves on chicken legs, she travels in a mortar with a pestle and sweeps away her tracks with a broom. In some tales she tries to harm the protagonist, while in others she is helpful. This book investigates the image and ambiguity of Baba Yaga in detail and considers the meanings she has for East Slavic culture. Providing a broad survey of folktales and other sources, it is the most thorough study of Baba Yaga yet published and will be of interest to students of anthropology, comparative literature, folklore, and Slavic and East European studies.
