Samenvatting

Here you'll find stories and fears of the everyday, often poking fun at those in authority, and laughing at the proud and haughty, including The Enchanted Rose Tree, The Wooing Of Cassandro, The Beggar and the Chick-Pea, The Dark King, The Old Miser and Why Cats and Dogs Always Quarrel, alongside some classical tales such as Cupid and Psyche.



The fables, folklore and fairy tales of Rome are definitely not the more familiar myths and legends with their pantheon of gods. Within these pages you'll find stories and fears of the everyday, observations on the world around us, often poking fun at those in authority, and laughing at the proud and haughty including, The King Who Goes Out to Dinner, The Enchanted Rose Tree, The Wooing Of Cassandro, The Beggar and the Chick-Pea, The Bad-Tempered Queen, The Old Miser, Why Cats and Dogs Always Quarrel and The Value of Salt. Tricksters and simpletons, animal tales, food stories, tales of love and marriage, and narratives imbued with religion and magic are accompanied by a complementary selection of classical tales from antiquity and the middle ages, such as Cupid and Psyche, that reveal the ancient roots of these stories that have passed down orally over the ages.
