Folk Tales from India: A Selection of Oral Tales from Twenty-two Languages


Description

"Folktales from India" is an enchanting collection of one hundred and ten tales translated from twenty-two different languages, by turns harrowing and comic, sardonic and allegorical, mysterious and romantic. Gods disguised as beggars and beasts; animals enacting Machiavellian intrigues: sagacious jesters and magical storytellers; wise counselors and foolish kings all of these inhabit a fabular world, yet one firmly grounded in everyday life. Augmented by A. K. Ramanujan s definitive introduction and notes, this is an indispensable guide to India's ageless folklore tradition. Part of the Pantheon Fairy Tale and Folklore Library"
