Informationen zum Autor Ruth B. Bottigheimer teaches European fairy tales and British children's literature at Stony Brook University, State University of New York. She is the author of several books, including Fairy Tales: A New History , also published by SUNY Press, and Fairy Godfather: Straparola, Venice, and the Fairy Tale Tradition . Klappentext "Women's expressive traditions remain understudied even after decades of feminist influence; this is partly because of the greater difficulties of research and translation they may pose. This book, with its offerings from South Asian female folklorists, makes a particular and significant contribution in this area." -- Ann Grodzins Gold, coauthor of Listen to the Heron's Words: Reimagining Gender and Kinship in North
