The Fairy world of Northern Europe and Germany
The term "Fairy" covers all kinds of nature spirits and Elementals all over the world. Not just the tiny sugar sweet creatures hovering around flowers. Thomas Keightley collected an impressive amount of mostly European, and nowadays often "extinct" folklorist data on these invisible realm's inhabitants, and compiled these in Fairy Mythology (1870).

In its revised edition, this massive work of over 800 pages, is republished in two volumes to meet modern reading standards. In volume 1 the origins of the term Fairy are traced and oriental and medieval romance, Eddas and Sagas, are examined before we explore Fairy-species as Elle-maids, Trolls, Nisses, Elves, Dwarfs, Necks, Mermaids, Nixes, Heinzelm nchen, Watermen or Wasserm nchen, H deken, Changeling, Wild women and Little people.

An invaluable work of resource for those interested in old European folklore or nature magic. Preview of high quality layout on www.vamzzz.com
