This book was released on 2000-05-17 with total page 484 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One hundred great folk tales and fairy tales from all over the world about strong, smart, brave heroines. Dismayed by the predominance of male protagonists in her daughters' books, Kathleen Ragan set out to collect the stories of our forgotten heroines. Gathered from around the world, from regions as diverse as sub-Saharan Africa and Western Europe, from North and South American Indian cultures and New World settlers, from Asia and the Middle East, these 100 folktales celebrate strong female heroines. Fearless Girls, Wise Women, and Beloved Sisters is for all women who are searching to define who they are, to redefine the world and shape their collective sensibility. It is for men who want to know more about what it means to be a woman. It is for our daughters and our sons, so that they can learn to value all kinds of courage, courage in battle and the courage of love. It is for all of us to help build a more just vision of woman.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All the selections in Richard M.

The tales presented are told in Africa, Asia, the Middle East, Europe, North and South America, and Oceania. Unlike other collections derived in large part from literary texts, this volume meets the criteria of professional folklorists in assembling only authentic examples of folktales as they were orally told. Background information, notes on the narrators, and scholarly commentaries are provided to establish the folkloric character of the tales.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book Hasan M. El-Shamy has gathered the first authentic new collection of modern Egyptian folk narratives to appear in nearly a century. El-Shamy's English translations of these orally presented stories not only preserve their spirit, but give Middle Eastern lore the scholarly attention it has long deserved. "This collection of seventy recently collected Egyptian tales is a major contribution to African studies and to international distribution studies of folktales. In the face of the recent anthropological trend to use folkloric materials for extra-folkloric purposes, the preeminence of the text must be asserted once more, and these are obviously authentic, straightforwardly translated, fully documented as to date of collection and social category of informant, and for all that . . . readable."—Daniel J. Crowley, Research in African Literatures "Western knowledge of virtually all facets of contemporary Egyptian culture, much less the roots of that culture, is woefully inadequate. By providing an interesting, varied, and readable collection of Egyptian folktales and offering clear and sensible accounts of their background and meaning, this book renders a valuable service indeed."—Kenneth J. Perkins, International Journal of Oral History

Book excerpt: Many Children's fairy tales end with this refrain. In traditional cultures, however, many folktakes were intended for adults and dared delve beyound the closure of the children's stories. Meliss Bunce has unearthed 19 such stories that explore and portary married couples in moments of challenge, struggle, and triumph. Times may have changed, but as these ancient stories illustrate, the underlying struggle haven't. In The Weaver King, The Warrior Queen(Armenia). a couple finds that reversing traditional gender roles helps them out of a tight spot. InThe Silent Fools (India), a stubborn couple's silence nearly costs them house and home--Literally. And in Patience and Magic (Korea), a wife wishes for a magic spell to transform her distantt husband and learns that the solution is more difficult--and more rewarding. A wonderful gift for weddings, anniversaries, and other holidays.
