| Summary: | "New, modern English translation of the folk tales collected by Peter Christen Asbjornsen and Jorgen Moe, which was first published in Norway in 1841, and a second edition in 1852"-- The extraordinary folktales collected by Peter Christen Asbjørnsen and Jørgen Moe began appearing in Norway in 1841. Over the next two decades the publication of subsequent editions under the title Norske folkeeventyr made the names Asbjørnsen and Moe synonymous with Norwegian storytelling traditions. Tiina Nunnally's vivid translation of their monumental collection is the first new English translation in more than 150 years-and the first ever to include all sixty original tales. |
