Tales from the Cloud Walking Country
Author: Marie CampbellPublisher: University of Georgia Press
ISBN: 9780820321868
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 276
Book Description
Assembled here are seventy-eight stories from six of the "ballad-singingest, tale-tellingest" residents of the eastern Kentucky mountain country. Based on stories rooted in European traditions from German fairy tales to Irish hero stories to Greek myths, the tales had been handed down through generations of telling before Marie Campbell collected them in the late 1920s and early 1930s. Readers will recognize the story of Snow White in "A Stepchild That Was Treated Mighty Bad," while "Three Shirts and a Golden Finger Ring" recalls the fairy tale of the Seven Swans. "The Fellow That Married A Dozen Times" is a lively rendition of "Bluebeard." As the narrators cautioned Marie Campbell again and again, "Tale-telling is nigh about faded out in the mountain country," but Tales from the Cloud Walking Country offers a lasting record of history, cultural heritage, language, and good old-fashioned fun.
The Garden

Pages : 221
Book Description
Rich color illustrations and a scholarly text characterize this catalogue of a landmark exhibition of Mughal carpets held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, November 1997-March 1998. Though exquisite, Indian carpets are little known even to carpet experts. This volume (and the exhibition) focus on the 16th to the 18th century, a peak period for stunning works. The text surveys the era in terms of history, the role of commerce, technical characteristics, and the carpets themselves, which exemplify the broad range of imperial and provincial production during the "classical" period of Indian carpet weaving. Carpets are organized by style and pattern and include a group from Kyoto. Three appendices analyze animal fibers and dyes. Oversize (9.50x12.25").

Moral Stories For Kids

Book Description
This book is a compilation of some timeless legendary stories. Separate stories were scattered across different media. The intention was to record them in a book. Children's parents were children once too. All of us have heard these stories from our elders in our childhood. We also read them in books. Interspersed in these stories are some important life lessons, teaching, and values - which I think are very much helpful in a child's future to make decisions when requires. It also helps to become a complete person. Hence these stories are immortalized beyond the boundaries of countries and eras. I have written this book with the help and research of many fables, foreign literature, folklore, expert opinions, and historians. Children are its intended readers. If they and their parents like this book, I will consider my efforts worthwhile. Hope you will collect the book and recommend it to others to do so.
