Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Violet Jacob (1863-1946) is most well known as a North East writer of historical fiction and of lyric poetry in Scots and English but she also wrote for children. This collection of short fairy tale fictions, The Golden Heart and Other Fairy Stories, is reprinted for the first time since its original publication in 1904, and makes visible an important part of Jacob's writing life. These eight tales, populated by witches, fairies, and princesses as well as talking animals and magical objects, echo aspects of both folk tradition and the classical European fairy tale canon. Jacob's protagonists seek love and happiness, enduring trials and misfortunes in order to reach a fairy tale ending; their narratives are often imbued with irony and humour, or laced with tender melancholy in the way of a Hans Christian Andersen tale. In its fantastical portraits of desire and longing, Jacob's collection is not altogether 'child-like'.Its charm and power is enriched by the original drawings by the artist May Sandheim; in their interlinking of an Art Nouveau aesthetic and fairy tale subject matter, they evokes the contemporary context of the 'Scotto-Continental Art Nouveau' movement and its female artists - such as Margaret MacDonald and Jessie M. King - who drew inspiration from fairy tales in their symbolist artworks. Published in the same year of the first performance of J.M. Barrie's famous 'fairy play', Peter Pan, The Golden Heart deserves to be restored to the tradition of Scottish fantasy and fairy tale writing. Sarah Dunnigan is a Senior Lecturer in English Literature at Edinburgh University. She has written about medieval and Renaissance Scottish literature, ballads, Burns, contemporary women writers, and fairy tales. She edited Nancy Brysson Morrison's Mary Queen of Scots for Kennedy & Boyd.

Download or read book Golden Heart written by Suzanne Taylor and published by MBS Press. This book was released on 2011 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Golden Heart invites you into a zany fairytale adventure. The story begins when a nasty witch moves into an ancient forest. All is well until the Witch finds a happy Kingdom nestled cosily at its edge. She decides the Kingdom's happiness is not something she can stomach so she starts her tricks. The Witch is forced to expand her plans when she finds the Queen has a Golden Heart, something unexpected but with a little care it could double her powers. Golden heart is written very much like one of the old familiar fairy tales yet it presents a story that is a little different. It is about understanding the spaces in love and it encourages recognition of the real self. It is also about adults enjoying the shared reading experience as much as the child. The illustrations are deliberately presented to attract the eye and give enough stimulation to fire the imagination. They encourage the reader to step back and take another look.

Book Synopsis Flemington And Tales From Angus by : Violet Jacob
Download or read book Flemington And Tales From Angus written by Violet Jacob and published by Canongate Books. This book was released on 2010-07-01 with total page 559 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Edited and introduced by Carol Anderson. ‘I think it is the best Scots romance since The Master of Ballantrae,’ said John Buchan when Flemington was first published in 1911. Violet Jacob’s fifth and finest novel is a tragic drama of the 1745 Jacobite Rising, tightly written, poetic in its symbolic intensity, lit by flashes of humour and informed by the author’s own family history as one of the Erskines of the House of Dun near Montrose. Drawn back to these roots in her later years, Violet Jacob also wrote many unforgettable short stories about the people, the landscapes and the language of the North-east. In this volume fourteen of these stories are re-collected and re-edited as Tales from Angus.
