Slovak Tales by Pavol Dobsinsky

Slovak Tales - Cover Page

Exclusive edition of Slovak Tales from series Book Miniatures in English language. Hand-made book work.

These tales were collected by Slovak scholar and cultural researcher Pavol Dobsinsky (1828 - 1885). Through his masterful story-telling skills, he preserved the beauty of various Slovak dialects and highlighted the best qualities of the Slovak people, such as their morality, intelligence and capacity for enterprise. He rightly deserves a place among the other celebrated collectors of folk fairy tales, including the Brothers Grimm in Germany, Hans Christian Andersen in Denmark and A. N. Afanasiev in Russia.

There are these fairy tales in Slovak Tales I.:

Salt is Better Than Gold, A Tale of the Twelve Months, An Egg Went Wandering, Popolvar – the Greatest in the World….

Order: Slovak Tales I..
