1st edition. Twayne's Studies in Literary Themes and Genres series. "From their prehistoric roots in oral narrative to their contemporary manifestations in books, films, music, and other media, fairy tales have unceasingly appealed to audiences of all ages and cultures. That folklorists have documented some 400 versions of 'Snow White' and 500 variations of 'Cinderella' over time and across cultures attests to the enduring and far-reaching qualities of this distinctive literary genre." Pp.xviii/156. Grey cloth, dustwrapper. VG/VG.
