The fairy tales of the Brothers Grimm are known to children around
the world: Little Red Riding Hood, Cinderella, Rapunzel, and many
other familiar stories that have been translated and published in
many editions through the years. Stackpole published a hardcover
edition in 1937 (list price $2.75!) The flap copy on that early
edition describes it as fuller in text than any available edition
and more beautifully illustrated with 94 black-and-white
illustrations and 8 full-page color plates by Fritz Kredel. This
paperback edition, reproduced with Kredel's charming illustrations
in black-and-white, brings these timeless tales to a new
generation.
The adventures and challenges of Sir Gawain, King Arthur's nephew
and a knight at the Round Table, including his duel with the
mysterious Green Knight, are among the oldest and best known of
Arthurian stories. Here the distinguished author and poet John
Gardner has captured the humor, elegance, and richness of the
original Middle English in flowing modern verse translations of
this literary masterpiece. Besides the tale of "Sir Gawain and the
Green Knight", this edition includes Gardner's substantial
introduction to the works of the Gawain poet: his worldview and the
conventions and traditions found in the poems, as well as an
analysis of his poetic forms.
