FRANZ XAVER VON SCHÖNWERTHThe Turnip PrincessAnd Other Newly Discovered Fairy TalesEDITED BY ERIKA EICHENSEER AND MARIA TATARTRANSLATED WITH AN INTRODUCTION AND NOTES BY MARIA TATARILLUSTRATED BY ENGELBERT SÜSS
For the first time, Schönwerth’s Bavarian fairy tales—lost until a few years ago when his manuscripts were discovered in a German municipal archive—are available in English. Recorded with minimal literary embellishment, these more than seventy stories bring us closer to the oral tradition in which fairy tales are rooted and revolutionize our understanding of the genre.
Editor Maria Tatar chairs the program in folklore and mythol-ogy at Harvard. Editor Erika Eichenseer is a historian, preserva-tionist, and director of the Franz Xaver von Schönwerth Society.
“Schönwerth’s legacy counts as the most significant collection in the German-speaking world in the 19th century.”—Daniel Drascek, University of Regensburg
“Schönwerth’s tales have a compositional fierceness and energy rarely seen in stories gathered by the Brothers Grimm or Charles Perrault.”—The New Yorker
“[This] new collection of German folk stories…challenges preconceptions about many of the most commonly known fairytales….Many of the stories centre around surprisingly emancipated female characters.”—The Guardian (UK)
PENGUIN CLASSICS PAPERBACK • 288 PP. • 978-0-14-310742-2 • $17.00
PHIL IP PULLMANFairy Tales from the Brothers Grimm: A New English Version“All of [Pullman’s] gifts, including his prose eloquence and his endless high Romantic imagi-nation, are manifested in this marvelous retelling.”—Harold Bloom, Yale University PENGUIN CLASSICS PAPERBACK • 432 PP. • 978-0-14-310729-3 • $18.00
PETER WORTSMAN, ed i t o rTales of the German ImaginationFrom the Brothers Grimm to Ingeborg BachmannTRANSLATED WITH AN INTRODUCTION BY THE EDITOR
“[This] collection of German tales, beautifully translated by Peter Wortsman, introduces some of the most fascinating and powerful examples of this genre to English speakers, en-couraging them to revisit that extraordinarily rich German culture which has had such an impact on world literature….Wortsman dazzles.”—Albrecht Classen, University of ArizonaPENGUIN CLASSICS PAPERBACK • 400 PP. • 978-0-14-119880-4 • $18.00
KATHERINE HOWE, editorThe Penguin Bookof WitchesINTRODUCTION AND NOTES BY THE EDITOR
From a manual for witch hunters written by King James in 1597, to court documents from the Salem witch trials of 1692, to newspaper coverage of a woman stoned to death in Phila-delphia in 1774, The Penguin Book of Witches presents real-life accounts of accused witches from medieval Europe through colonial America, providing a unique tour of the dark history of English and North American witchcraft.
Edited by Katherine Howe, professor of American colonial history at Cornell, this collection includes the stories of Eunice Cole, tried for attacking a teenager and buried with a stake in her heart; Jane Jacobs, so often accused of witchcraft that she took her tormentors to court; Increase Mather, an exorcism-performing minister famed for his witch knowledge; and others.
“This comprehensive collection of carefully selected documents and published primary materi-als, coupled with judicious and informative introductions, will help modern readers understand the...popular phenomenon of belief in witchcraft from the seventeenth century into more mod-ern times.”—Mary Beth Norton, author of In the Devil’s Snare
“An informative and engaging series of texts that [Howe] introduces in a crisp and well-informed manner. The chronological breadth…allows us to grasp more fully the continuities that mark the history of witch-hunting on both sides of the Atlantic.”—David D. Hall, Harvard Divinity School
PENGUIN CLASSICS PAPERBACK • 288 PP. • 978-0-14-310742-2 • $17.00
JOHN DEMOSThe Enemy Within: A Short History of Witch-HuntingExplores the social, cultural, and psychological roots of witch-hunting, both in the remote past and the present, and chronicles the most prominent witch-hunts of the Western world to show how communal fear of witchcraft has fueled cycles of accusation, persecution, and purging within communities. PENGUIN PAPERBACK • 336 PP. • 978-0-14-311633-2 • $17.00
MARGOT ADLERDrawing Down the MoonWitches, Druids, Goddess-Worshippers, and Other Pagans in AmericaIn this detailed history of Neo-Pagan subculture, Adler—who attended ritual gatherings and interviewed a diverse array of people inspired by ancient deities, nature, myth, and even science fiction—explores the religious experiences and lifestyles of America’s pagan groups.

FRANZ XAVER VON SCHÖNWERTHThe Turnip PrincessAnd Other Newly Discovered Fairy TalesEDITED BY ERIKA EICHENSEER AND MARIA TATARTRANSLATED WITH AN INTRODUCTION AND NOTES BY MARIA TATARILLUSTRATED BY ENGELBERT SÜSS
For the first time, Schönwerth’s Bavarian fairy tales—lost until a few years ago when his manuscripts were discovered in a German municipal archive—are available in English. Recorded with minimal literary embellishment, these more than seventy stories bring us closer to the oral tradition in which fairy tales are rooted and revolutionize our understanding of the genre.
Editor Maria Tatar chairs the program in folklore and mythol-ogy at Harvard. Editor Erika Eichenseer is a historian, preserva-tionist, and director of the Franz Xaver von Schönwerth Society.
“Schönwerth’s legacy counts as the most significant collection in the German-speaking world in the 19th century.”—Daniel Drascek, University of Regensburg
“Schönwerth’s tales have a compositional fierceness and energy rarely seen in stories gathered by the Brothers Grimm or Charles Perrault.”—The New Yorker
“[This] new collection of German folk stories…challenges preconceptions about many of the most commonly known fairytales….Many of the stories centre around surprisingly emancipated female characters.”—The Guardian (UK)
PENGUIN CLASSICS PAPERBACK • 288 PP. • 978-0-14-310742-2 • $17.00
PHIL IP PULLMANFairy Tales from the Brothers Grimm: A New English Version“All of [Pullman’s] gifts, including his prose eloquence and his endless high Romantic imagi-nation, are manifested in this marvelous retelling.”—Harold Bloom, Yale University PENGUIN CLASSICS PAPERBACK • 432 PP. • 978-0-14-310729-3 • $18.00
PETER WORTSMAN, ed i t o rTales of the German ImaginationFrom the Brothers Grimm to Ingeborg BachmannTRANSLATED WITH AN INTRODUCTION BY THE EDITOR
“[This] collection of German tales, beautifully translated by Peter Wortsman, introduces some of the most fascinating and powerful examples of this genre to English speakers, en-couraging them to revisit that extraordinarily rich German culture which has had such an impact on world literature….Wortsman dazzles.”—Albrecht Classen, University of ArizonaPENGUIN CLASSICS PAPERBACK • 400 PP. • 978-0-14-119880-4 • $18.00
KATHERINE HOWE, editorThe Penguin Bookof WitchesINTRODUCTION AND NOTES BY THE EDITOR
From a manual for witch hunters written by King James in 1597, to court documents from the Salem witch trials of 1692, to newspaper coverage of a woman stoned to death in Phila-delphia in 1774, The Penguin Book of Witches presents real-life accounts of accused witches from medieval Europe through colonial America, providing a unique tour of the dark history of English and North American witchcraft.
Edited by Katherine Howe, professor of American colonial history at Cornell, this collection includes the stories of Eunice Cole, tried for attacking a teenager and buried with a stake in her heart; Jane Jacobs, so often accused of witchcraft that she took her tormentors to court; Increase Mather, an exorcism-performing minister famed for his witch knowledge; and others.
“This comprehensive collection of carefully selected documents and published primary materi-als, coupled with judicious and informative introductions, will help modern readers understand the...popular phenomenon of belief in witchcraft from the seventeenth century into more mod-ern times.”—Mary Beth Norton, author of In the Devil’s Snare
“An informative and engaging series of texts that [Howe] introduces in a crisp and well-informed manner. The chronological breadth…allows us to grasp more fully the continuities that mark the history of witch-hunting on both sides of the Atlantic.”—David D. Hall, Harvard Divinity School
PENGUIN CLASSICS PAPERBACK • 288 PP. • 978-0-14-310742-2 • $17.00
JOHN DEMOSThe Enemy Within: A Short History of Witch-HuntingExplores the social, cultural, and psychological roots of witch-hunting, both in the remote past and the present, and chronicles the most prominent witch-hunts of the Western world to show how communal fear of witchcraft has fueled cycles of accusation, persecution, and purging within communities. PENGUIN PAPERBACK • 336 PP. • 978-0-14-311633-2 • $17.00
MARGOT ADLERDrawing Down the MoonWitches, Druids, Goddess-Worshippers, and Other Pagans in AmericaIn this detailed history of Neo-Pagan subculture, Adler—who attended ritual gatherings and interviewed a diverse array of people inspired by ancient deities, nature, myth, and even science fiction—explores the religious experiences and lifestyles of America’s pagan groups.

FRANZ XAVER VON SCHÖNWERTHThe Turnip PrincessAnd Other Newly Discovered Fairy TalesEDITED BY ERIKA EICHENSEER AND MARIA TATARTRANSLATED WITH AN INTRODUCTION AND NOTES BY MARIA TATARILLUSTRATED BY ENGELBERT SÜSS
For the first time, Schönwerth’s Bavarian fairy tales—lost until a few years ago when his manuscripts were discovered in a German municipal archive—are available in English. Recorded with minimal literary embellishment, these more than seventy stories bring us closer to the oral tradition in which fairy tales are rooted and revolutionize our understanding of the genre.
Editor Maria Tatar chairs the program in folklore and mythol-ogy at Harvard. Editor Erika Eichenseer is a historian, preserva-tionist, and director of the Franz Xaver von Schönwerth Society.
“Schönwerth’s legacy counts as the most significant collection in the German-speaking world in the 19th century.”—Daniel Drascek, University of Regensburg
“Schönwerth’s tales have a compositional fierceness and energy rarely seen in stories gathered by the Brothers Grimm or Charles Perrault.”—The New Yorker
“[This] new collection of German folk stories…challenges preconceptions about many of the most commonly known fairytales….Many of the stories centre around surprisingly emancipated female characters.”—The Guardian (UK)

KATHERINE HOWE, editorThe Penguin Bookof WitchesINTRODUCTION AND NOTES BY THE EDITOR
From a manual for witch hunters written by King James in 1597, to court documents from the Salem witch trials of 1692, to newspaper coverage of a woman stoned to death in Phila-delphia in 1774, The Penguin Book of Witches presents real-life accounts of accused witches from medieval Europe through colonial America, providing a unique tour of the dark history of English and North American witchcraft.
Edited by Katherine Howe, professor of American colonial history at Cornell, this collection includes the stories of Eunice Cole, tried for attacking a teenager and buried with a stake in her heart; Jane Jacobs, so often accused of witchcraft that she took her tormentors to court; Increase Mather, an exorcism-performing minister famed for his witch knowledge; and others.
“This comprehensive collection of carefully selected documents and published primary materi-als, coupled with judicious and informative introductions, will help modern readers understand the...popular phenomenon of belief in witchcraft from the seventeenth century into more mod-ern times.”—Mary Beth Norton, author of In the Devil’s Snare
“An informative and engaging series of texts that [Howe] introduces in a crisp and well-informed manner. The chronological breadth…allows us to grasp more fully the continuities that mark the history of witch-hunting on both sides of the Atlantic.”—David D. Hall, Harvard Divinity School

A great cache of ancient, magical tales, these earliest-known Arabic short stories dating from at least a millennium ago survived in a single, ragged manuscript in a library in Istanbul. Although some of these charming, surreal, baffling, and beautiful tales found their way into The Arabian Nights, most appear here, for the very first time, in English. “Offers a gateway to a different world of language and ideas, florid, wildly descriptive and a powerful reminder of the human need for story….Irresistible.”—The Independent (UK) PENGUIN CLASSICS HARDCOVER • 496 PP. • 978-0-14-139503-6 • $30.00

WASHINGTON IRV INGThe Legend of Sleepy Hollow: And Other StoriesINTRODUCTION AND NOTES BY ELIZABETH L. BRADLEY
Originally published under a pseudonym as The Sketch Book of Geoffrey Crayon, Gent., this collection of tales features Washington Irving’s best-known literary inventions: Icha-bod Crane, the Headless Horseman, Rip Van Winkle, and other larger-than-life charac-ters and stories that gave America its own haunted mythology.“[Irving is] the architect of America’s founding mythology....Today, Americans can hard-ly begin to sort out where Irving’s vision leaves off and theirs begins, so steeped are they in his portrait of their ‘sublime and beautiful’ country.”—Elizabeth L.

J EAN THOMPSONThe Witch: And Other Tales Re-ToldIn this captivating collection, Thompson takes the classic fairy tale and brings it into the modern age with eight short stories that capture the magic and horror of everyday life. “[A] series of exuberantly imaginative riffs on traditional folk and fairy tales….They offer all the chills and suspense embedded in those ancient pinnacles, gorges and deep, dark woods....[A] spirited, provocative collection.”—San Francisco Chronicle“[Thompson] has a clear, strong sense of how all sorts of people work, sometimes a mys-tery even to themselves, and her smart, spare style, conveying these inner workings in an almost matter-of-fact way, is a sly modern counterpart of the age-old storyteller’s voice, simply reporting the way things are, however strange.”—Minneapolis Star-TribuneBLUE RIDER PRESS HARDCOVER • 272 PP. • 978-0-399-17058-4 • $25.95
HELEN OYEYEMI Boy, Snow, Bird“By transforming ‘Snow White’ into a tale that hinges on race and cultural ideas about beauty—the danger of mirrors indeed—Oyeyemi finds a new, raw power in the classic. In her hands, the story is about secrets and lies, mothers and daughters, lost sisters, and the impossibility of seeing oneself or being seen in a brutally racist world….[Oyeyemi] elegantly and inventively turns a classic fairy tale inside out.”—Los Angeles TimesRIVERHEAD HARDCOVER • 320 PP. • 978-1-59463-139-9 • $27.95RIVERHEAD PAPERBACK • 336 PP. • 978-1-59463-340-9 • $16.00PAPERBACK AVAILABLE MARCH 2015

Following in the inspired footsteps of Gregory Maguire’s fairy-tale twists, this debut novel puts a spellbinding new spin on a classic yarn.”—BooklistBERKLEY PAPERBACK • 464 PP. • 978-0-425-27384-5 • $16.00
