‎Rotkäppchen.‎

‎Verlag A. Anton & Co. Leipzig (Druck von Ernst Hedrich Nachf. in Leipzig). (Ohne Jahr. Um 1928). 13, (1) Seiten. Mit 4 ganzseitigen u. farbig lithographierten Illustrationen sowie 7 s/w Illustrationen im Text. Dekorativ farbig illustrierter Originalumschlag in neuerem, beigen Leinwand-Einband ohne Titelaufdruck. (Die farbigen Abbildungen in kräftigem Abddruck. Papier teils gering randfleckig. Hinteres Umschlagblatt nicht mit eingebunden). Querformat 20,5x24,5 cm‎

‎* Friedrich ?Fritz? Karl Baumgarten (* 18. August 1883 in Reudnitz bei Leipzig; ? 3. November 1966 in Leipzig) war ein deutscher Kinder-/Bilderbuchillustrator, Lithograf, Zeichner und Maler. Er hat über mehrere Jahrzehnte zahlreiche Bilderbücher mit Wichteln und Zwergen gestaltet und dabei einen für ihn charakteristischen Stil geprägt.... Zwischen den frühen 1920er Jahren und 1960 veröffentlichte er weit über 500 Werke für Kinder (teilweise auch Jugendliche), die Mehrzahl davon vor dem Zweiten Weltkrieg. Dazu gehören auch von ihm illustrierte Märchen-, Sagen- und Volksbücher sowie Erzählungen für die Jugend, Adventskalender, als auch illustrierte Bilderbücher zu Märchen der Gebrüder Grimm, etwa Rotkäppchen (1928), Hänsel und Gretel (1928), Dornröschen (1935), Frau Holle (1938) oder Der Wolf und die sieben Geißlein (vermutlich 1928). Letztgenanntes Märchen-Bilderbuch wurde seinerzeit wie folgt bewertet: ?Diese schöne Mär, die zu den Beständen echter deutscher Volksmärchen gehört, wird mit Bildern vorgelegt, die eindrucksvoll den Text begleiten, mit ganzseitigen farbigen, die Höhepunkte festhalten und eingestreuten oder umrahmenden Tondrucken im Text. Die Bilder sind großflächig gehalten, stimmungshaft ? wenn auch etwas gleichförmig ?, reich im einzelnen, zeigen das Tier in seiner Wesenseigenart und bringen nur vereinzelt ? etwa um das Mütterliche, der alten Geiß zu unterstreichen ? Kleidung (Rock, Bluse, Schürze). Solches Maß paßt durchaus zum Märchen. Im ganzen ein erfreuliches Buch... (Quelle Wikipedia)‎

‎MYTH AND HISTORY IN ANCIENT GREECE The Symbolic Creation of a Colony‎

‎Princeton: Princeton University Press. Fine in Very Good dust jacket. 2003. Hardcover. 0691114587 . Book is fine. DJ has light shelfwear with a few small scratches. ; Xvii 178pp. Surely the ancient Greeks would have been baffled to see what we consider their "mythology." Here Claude Calame mounts a powerful critique of modern-day misconceptions on this front and the lax methodology that has allowed them to prevail. He argues that the Greeks viewed their abundance of narratives not as a single mythology but as an "archaeology." They speculated symbolically on key historical events so that a community of believing citizens could access them efficiently through ritual means. Central to the book is Calame's rigorous and fruitful analysis of various accounts of the foundation of that most "mythical" of the Greek colonies--Cyrene in eastern Libya. Calame opens with a magisterial historical survey demonstrating today's misapplication of the terms "myth" and "mythology." Next he examines the Greeks' symbolic discourse to show that these modern concepts arose much later than commonly believed. Having established this interpretive framework Calame undertakes a comparative analysis of six accounts of Cyrene's foundation: three by Pindar and one each by Herodotus in two different versions Callimachus and Apollonius of Rhodes. We see how the underlying narrative was shaped in each into a poetically sophisticated distinctive form by the respective medium a particular poetical genre and the specific socio-historical circumstances. Calame concludes by arguing in favor of the Greeks' symbolic approach to the past and by examining the relation of mythos to poetry and music. ; 178 pages . Princeton University Press hardcover‎

‎Italian Folktales‎

‎NEW YORK: Harcourt Brace Jovanovich 1980 TERRIFIC BOOK. GOOD CONDITION BROWN COVER GOLD TURKEY ON FRONT GOLD PRINT SPINE SLIGHT WEAR ON FRONT 2 SMALL WATER MARKS. NO MARKINGS. SELECTED AND RETOLD BY ITALO CALVINO TRANSLATED BY GEORGE MARTIN. ENGLISH TRANSLATION COPYRIGHT 1980. A HELEN AND KURT WOLFF BOOK. 200 FOLKTALES NOTES AND BIBLIOGRAPHY. 18 PAGES OF INTRODUCTION TRANSLATED BY CATHERINE HILL. CALVINO IS A MASTER OF FOLKTALES. Calvino Italo 1923�85 Italian writer critic and editor. He was born in Cuba to Italian parents but grew up in San Remo on the Ligurian Riviera. Italian Folktales Fiabe Italiane is a collection of 200 Italian folktales published in 1956 by Italo Calvino. Calvino began to undertake the project that will lead to the Italian Folktales in 1954 influenced by Vladimir Propp's Morphology of the Folktale; his intention was to emulate the Brothers Grimm in producing a popular collection of Italian fairy tales for the general reader.1 He did not compile tales from listeners but made extensive use of the existing work of folklorists; he noted the source of each individual tale but warned that was merely the version he used.2 He included extensive notes on his alterations to make the tales more readable and the logic of his selections such as renaming the heroine of The Little Girl Sold with the Pears Perina rather than Margheritina to connect to the pears3 and selecting Bella Venezia as the Italian variant of Snow White because it featured robbers rather than the variants containing dwarfs which he suspected were imported from Germany.4 It was first translated into English in 1962; a further translation is by Sylvia Mulcahy Dent 1975 and constituted the first comprehensive collection of Italian folktales.5 WOW! GREAT BOOK FROM CALVINO WHO LOVED FOLKTALES. HISTORY COLLECTORS ITEM. 1776 BOOKSTORE WHERE HISTORY LIVES. Harcourt Brace Jovanovich hardcover‎
