About this book
Fairy tales are a rich element of childhood in many cultures around the world. But in Ireland, where they are known as wonder tales, these stories of magic and enchantment are not restricted to young audiences. Gose identifies a number of approaches - psychological, anthropological, structural, comparative, and typological.
