Seller's Description:
Vintage B&W illustrations throughout. New in New jacket. Book CONDITION: NEW 2018 Henry Holt small hardcover (red boards) & dust jacket, first edition, first printing. Vintage B&W illustrations throughout (I guess that means they got the images for free off of the net? ). CONTENT: Like Nursery Rhymes, fairy tales can be rooted in true stories. Robert Bly revisits a selection of fairy tales and examines how these enduring narratives capture the essence of human nature. Few forms of storytelling have greater power to captivate the human mind than fairy tales, but where do these tales originate from, and what do they mean? Celebrated poet and bestselling author Robert Bly has been asking these questions throughout his career. Here Bly looks at six tales that have stood the test of time and have captivated the poet for decades, from "The Six Swans" to "The Frog Prince." Drawing on his own creative genius, and the work of a range of thinkers from Kirkegaard and Yeats to Freud and Jung, Bly turns these stories over in his mind to bring new meaning and illumination to these timeless tales. Along with illustrations of each story, the book features some of Bly's unpublished poetry, which peppers his lyric prose and offers a look inside the mind of an American master of letters in the twilight of his singular career. Additional tales are: "The Lindworm" "The Dark Man, " "One-Two Man, " and "The White Bear King Valemon."
