Jack Zipes has spent decades as a "scholarly scavenger," discovering forgotten fairy tales in libraries, flea markets, used bookstores, and internet searches, and he has introduced countless readers to these remarkable works and their authors. In Buried Treasures, Zipes describes his special passion for uncovering political fairy tales of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, offers fascinating profiles of more than a dozen of their writers and illustrators, and shows why they deserve greater attention and appreciation.

Revisado: 01-31-24
Zipes is a prolific thinker and writer on folk and fairy tales. He translated and published the original Bambi text into vivid English prose, is the translator of the best and most complete Grimms tales available in English and is an absolute genius.
This book is a collection of introductory essays on various literary fairytale authors. It’s not a collection of stories. The essays are revealing and informative and an excellent jumping off point for further research. But if you’re looking for tales…. Keep looking.
