Collected Swedish Folk Tales
The following volume of Swedish folk-tales represents a careful choice,
after the best original sources, of those examples of their kind which
not only appeared most colorful and entertaining, but also most racially
Swedish in their flavor. For the fairy-tales of each of the three
Scandinavian countries, Sweden, Denmark and Norway, have a distinct
local color of their own. The wealth of material available has made it
possible to give due representation to most types of fairy-tales, from
the stories of older origin, the tales of giant, troll, and werewolf, to
such delightful tales as "Lasse, My Thrall", "The Princess and the
Glass Mountain" and "Prince Hat under the Ground" colored with the rich
and ornate stylistic garb of medieval chivalric poesy. There has been no
attempt to "rewrite" these charming folk-and fairy-tales in the
translation. This book is not illustrated.
