New German fairy tale book

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

New German Fairy Tale Book is the title of a fairy tale collection by Ludwig Bechstein that appeared from 1856. It supplemented Bechstein's German book of fairy tales .

In the foreword, Bechstein goes into the flowing demarcation of the fairy tale , which is locally indeterminate and whose core element is the wonderful, to saga and legend . He left out the latter here, and for pedagogical reasons he also dispensed with the motives of bad stepmothers. All texts were edited by himself, but were based on the oral and written sources mentioned.
