Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To ALL LOVERS OF FAIRY LORE, IN COMPLIANCE With MANY REQUESTS FROM OLD-YOUNG FRIENDS, THESE THREE TALES, WRITTEN IN STRAY MOMENTS, ARE AFFECTIONATELY DEDICATED BY THE AUTHOR. THE three tales which form the present volume tell of fairies, good and bad, of evil witches, and of fanciful elves-some friends, some foes to mankind. There are wise people who call such tales frivolous, and think the time wasted which is employed on them.But, in the first place, so far as I am concerned, the tales are written only in the most leisure of leisure moments, as a relaxation from heavier work; and, in the second place, I cannot think any time wasted which contributes to the amusement of the young. To my mind there is enough of dry, prosy matter stuffed into their poor brains in these dull times, and a little lighter food is as useful as it is welcome to them.So the wise people may talk just as much wisdom as they please, and my fairies and I will only laugh at them, as long as boys and girls love us as well as we love them, and recognize in us pleasant friends with whom sometimes to pass an idle hour.

Book Synopsis Friends and Foes from Fairy Land by : Lord Brabourne
Download or read book Friends and Foes from Fairy Land written by Lord Brabourne and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-04-08 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To those persons who consider that a wholesome food for the youthful mind is to be found in the brutal narratives of witch persecution related from the point of view of the persecutors, Lord Brabourne's book may be warmly commended. They will find in the longest story in the volume, "The Witches of Headcorn," a description of the pursuit and death by drowning of a wretched old woman, which for graphic horror is worthy of the most superstitious and bigoted old chronicler, and it is narrated without a word of reprobation, or any sign that the author does not consider that the old hag was appropriately punished. In the two other stories in the volume the supernatural element is also chiefly supplied by the malign influence of witchcraft: there is one shadowy fairy and an elf or so, but they are comparatively unimportant. However, whether these witch stories are edifying reading or not, there is not much chance that the youthful reader will relish them, especially when related in Lord Brabourne's ponderous style and adorned by his labored facetiousness. The childish imagination craves for the altogether mysterious and fanciful, and is far more impressed by fairies or giants than mere evil-minded old women. With the remembrance of several pleasing story-books by Lord Brabourne some dozen or more years since, in the balmier days, we are able to bestow a another word of commendation on this performance, being the book is loaded with pretty illustrations supplied by Mr. Linley Sambourne.

Book Synopsis The A to Z of Fantasy Literature by : Brian Stableford
Download or read book The A to Z of Fantasy Literature written by Brian Stableford and published by Scarecrow Press. This book was released on 2009-08-13 with total page 568 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Once upon a time all literature was fantasy, set in a mythical past when magic existed, animals talked, and the gods took an active hand in earthly affairs. As the mythical past was displaced in Western estimation by the historical past and novelists became increasingly preoccupied with the present, fantasy was temporarily marginalized until the late 20th century, when it enjoyed a spectacular resurgence in every stratum of the literary marketplace. Stableford provides an invaluable guide to this sequence of events and to the current state of the field. The chronology tracks the evolution of fantasy from the origins of literature to the 21st century. The introduction explains the nature of the impulses creating and shaping fantasy literature, the problems of its definition and the reasons for its changing historical fortunes. The dictionary includes cross-referenced entries on more than 700 authors, ranging across the entire historical spectrum, while more than 200 other entries describe the fantasy subgenres, key images in fantasy literature, technical terms used in fantasy criticism, and the intimately convoluted relationship between literary fantasies, scholarly fantasies, and lifestyle fantasies. The book concludes with an extensive bibliography that ranges from general textbooks and specialized accounts of the history and scholarship of fantasy literature, through bibliographies and accounts of the fantasy literature of different nations, to individual author studies and useful websites.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Chronicles of Fairy Land I grew tired watching the shadow-dance, so, letting my chin sink on my breast, I stared into the red hollows and burning caverns made by the flames among the logs of wood. There I saw all kinds of curious things, - turreted castles, which held enchanted princesses, broad red plains, across which journeyed brave knights in armour, to deliver those same princesses, and huge rocky caverns wherein dwelt cruel magicians, who try to stop the brave knights from reaching the enchanted castles. I saw all these things in the fire, and you can see them also, if you look steadily into the flames at night-time, because then everything is under the spell of faery power. But you must believe very hard indeed, as you look, for the faeries will not let their country be seen by children who doubt that the beautiful land exists.
