"The Red Romance Book: Tales of Knights, Dragons & High Adventure" is a book of tales of heroism and legend, edited by Andrew Lang. It was first published in 1905. The stories were mostly taken from various sagas and chivalric romances, including "The Story of Burnt Njal", "Orlando Furioso", "The Faerie Queene", and "Don Quixote". This wonderful collection would make for a great addition to any bookshelf, and it is not to be missed by collectors of antiquarian literature of this ilk. The stories include: "How William of Palermo was carried off by the Werewolf", "The Disenchantment of the Werwolf", "The Slaying of Hallgerda's Husbands", "The Death of Gunnar", "Njal's Burning", "The Lady of Solace", "Una and the Lion", "How the Red Cross Knight Slew the Dragon", "Amys and Amyle", "The Tale of the Cid", "The Knight of the Sorrowful Countenance", and many more. Many vintage texts such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive, and it is with this in mind that we are republishing this book now, in an affordable, high-quality, modern edition. It comes complete with a specially commissioned biography of the author.

Folktales and fairy tales are living stories; as part of the oral tradition, they change and evolve as they are retold from generation to generation. In the last thirty years, however, revision has become an art form of its own, with tales intentionally revised to achieve humorous effect, send political messages, add different cultural or regional elements, try out new narrative voices, and more. These revisions take all forms, from short stories to novel-length narratives to poems, plays, musicals, films and advertisements. The resulting tales paint the tales from myriad perspectives, using the broad palette of human creativity. This study examines folktale revisions from many angles, drawing on examples primarily from revisions of Western European traditional tales, such as those of the Grimm Brothers and Charles Perrault. Also discussed are new folktales that combine traditional storylines with commentary on modern life. The conclusion considers how revisionists poke fun at and struggle to understand stories that sometimes made little sense to start with.

Originally published in 1892, "the object of this Handbook is to supply readers and speakers with a lucid, but very brief account of such names as are used in allusions and references, whether by poets or prose writers; - to furnish those who consult it with the plot of popular dramas, the story of epic poems, and the outline of well-known tales. The number of dramatic plots sketched out is many hundreds. Another striking and interesting feature of the book is the revelation of the source from which dramatists and romancers have derived their stories, and the strange repetitions of historic incidents. It has been borne in mind throughout that it is not enough to state a fact. It must be stated attractively, and the character described must be drawn characteristically if the reader is to appreciate it, and feel an interest in what he reads." This work, an American reprint of The Reader's Handbook by E. Cobham Brewer, ..".while retaining all of the original material that can interest and aid the English-speaking student, gives also 'characters and sketches found in American novels, poetry and drama.'"
