This exciting scholarly edition highlights the importance of Lang's
contributions to Victorian and Edwardian children's literature and
fantasy. It repositions his children's fictions as works that have
helped shape twentieth- and twenty-first-century approaches to
writing for children and that anticipate experimental approaches to
folk narrative and fairy tale in modern literature. Included in
this edition are: Lang's children's novels The Gold of Fairnilee,
Prince Prigio and Prince Ricardo of Pantouflia; his picture-book
story The Princess Nobody; the Scottish folk tales collected by
Lang in the 1860s and reworked in successive republications
throughout his career; and a selection of the tales Lang wrote for
inclusion in the anthologies The Blue Fairy Book, The Red Fairy
Book and Tales of Troy and Greece. This edition also features
extensive critical materials designed to help the reader understand
the context, the social significance, and the textual history of
these fictions.
