A Study of Fairy Tales

by Laura Fry Kready

In Norway we have:—

1851. Norske Folkeeventyr, collected by Asbjörnsen and Moe.

1862. Norse Tales. The above tales translated by Sir George W. Dasent.

In Denmark we have:—

Sagas of Bodvar Biarke.

Danske Folkeeventyr, by M. Winther, Copenhagen, 1823.

1843-60. Danmarks Folkesagn, 3 vols., by J.M. Thiele.

1805-1875. Fairy Tales, by Hans Christian Andersen. These tales are important as marking the beginning of the modern fairy tale. They are important also as literary fairy tales and have not been equaled in modern times.

In Slavonia we have:—

Wochentliche Nachrichten, by Busching, published by Schottky.
