PERRAULT'S STORIES: Modern English THIS EDITION: The revised
English text is in part a translation from Spanish. Essentially,
Perrault's fairy tales have been rewritten in contemporary English
from the Spanish translation. The stories were originally written
in French. The English translation is in a segmented format as part
of a '2Language Books' dual-language project. BRIEF SYNOPSIS: This
book is a collection of eight fairy tales that were originally
published in 1697. The Grimm brothers rewrote many of these
stories. However, in many ways they are remarkably different
versions. The full title, as translated into English, is "Tales and
Stories of the Past with Morals: Tales of Mother Goose." The
stories include: Sleeping Beauty in the Woods; Cinderella; Little
Finger; Puss in Boots; Riquet with the Tuft; Blue Beard; The Fairy;
Little Red Riding-Hood. AUTHOR: Charles Perrault (1628 - 1703) is
often times considered the founder of the modern fairy tale genre.
Although, some of his stories follow themes from earlier authors,
and he did not coin the phrase 'fairy tale'. (For a Dual-Language
Book Project) 2Language Books
