PERRAULT'S STORIES: English to Spanish THIS EDITION: The
dual-language text has been arranged into sub-paragraphs and
paragraphs, for quick and easy cross-referencing. The Spanish
translation has been modernised and amended to suit this dual
language project. 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
emphasis is on attaining a high correlation between each set of
text fragments. The stories were originally written in French.
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 Spanish subtitle is, "Los Cuentos de Mama Ganso." 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'. (A Dual-Language Book
