Best Fairy Stories of the World (Marcus Clapham) ; CRW Publishing Limited, 2010

Fairy tales are the simplest and purest expressions of the collective unconscious, and thus offer the clearest understanding of the basic patterns of the human psyche. Every people or nation has its own way of experiencing this psychic reality, and so a study of the world's fairy tales yields a wealth of insights into the archetypal experiences of humankind. Folk tales and fairy stories were originally intended for both adults and children - "Grimms' Household Tales", for instance - and this international anthology brings together, "The Sagacious Monkey and Boar" from Japan, "The Thee Billy Goats Gruff" from Norway, and "The Bunyip" from Australia, as well as the classic stories of Andersen, the Grimm Brothers and Charles Perrault, among many others.
