One of the best known, most enduring, and popular genres in all of literature is the Fairy Tale. Its origins stretch back to preliterate oral societies. This book surveys the origins and evolution into the modern versions we recognize today. It includes a general history of the form, analysis of exemplary texts, chronology of significant events, works, and figures from the genre's history, notes and references, and an extensive bibliographic essay with recommended reading.
