The Secret Commonwealth of Elves Fauns and Fairies

Více o knize

Exploring the realms of fairy folklore, witchcraft, and extrasensory perception, Robert Kirk's influential treatise delves into the supernatural beliefs of the Scottish Highlands. Recognized by folklorists and mythologists as a pivotal work, it presents a collection of tales that illuminate the cultural significance of fairies and second sight. Initially left unpublished upon Kirk's death in 1692, the manuscript was first released in 1815, with a notable re-edit by Andrew Lang in 1893, which is the basis for this reprint.
