The Greenwood Encyclopedia of Folktales and Fairy Tales (Three Volumes)

Folk and fairy tales exist in all cultures and are at the heart of civilization. The most comprehensive work of its kind, this massive Encyclopedia gives students and general readers a broad, accessible, multicultural survey of folk and fairy tales from around the world. Edited by one of the foremost authorities on the subject, the Encyclopedia draws on the work of numerous expert contributors and covers a broad range of themes and motifs, characters and character types, genres, individuals, national traditions, and other topics. Included are hundreds of alphabetically arranged entries on such subjects as:

African American Tales Hans Christian Andersen Cartoons and Comics Changeling Childhood and Children Charles Dickens Egyptian Tales Elves Fable Nathaniel Hawthorne Internet

Pigs Puck Riddle Maurice Sendak Stamps Virginia Woolf And many more. Entry topics were chosen in consultation with a nine-member Advisory Board that includes some of the most prominent scholars currently pursuing the study of folk and fairy tales, such as Professor Jack Zipes of the University of Minnesota, whose work has revolutionized research on fairy tales. Entries cite works for further reading, and the Encyclopedia closes with a bibliography of print and electronic resources. Literature students will value this book as an aid to understanding and analyzing folk and fairy tales as literary forms, while social studies students will appreciate the book's examination of the foundations of world cultures. And because many of these tales continue to influence films, television, and popular culture, general readers will welcome the Encyclopedia as a means of understanding the modern world.

I am getting fedup with this uploading shit.

From where I am at there is no way I can download.

Why post something when most people cannot download.

I hope admin will do something about it.

I downloaded this ebook some time back.

Here is the RS link.

well said, horusng!

I may add "uploaded.to", which is almost useless nowadays (large german boards refuse in taking their links!).

uploading.com ..........gives MANY broken downloads.

uploaded.to ............results in heavily pop-upped sites where nothing moves in the end (probably kind of "invitation" for buying an account).

I also urge the admin to take action about (against) it.

Nevertheless: Big Thanks to each and every uploader! Sadly I´m actually too busy to upload anything :-(.

I have never had any problem with uploading.com. In fact it is one of the better downloading sites. I get good downloads, NO broken ones, which I cannot say for RS and DF. I also do not get download limits with uploading.com. The only thing I think the admin should change is the policy about not putting mirrors in the comments if the OP asks not to. Mirrors are needed in many cases such as yours.

Lets look real at this. The fact of the matter is that those posters using these shit-sites r hoping to cash in on the DL hits and otherwise. It IS about money $$$$! Granted hue and many others OVERUSE these crappy sites... but they DO provide a wealth of stuff, and thanks 4 that, HOWEVER, I too agree that admin needs to look at this crap in order to 'streamline' many aspects of why Avax is the absolute BEST link site on earth. If u have widespread UNavailibilty of files or problematic sites that host shitjackers, popups, virii or whateverthefuck ppl will get pissed and go elsewhere.

I tend to agree with horusng and hermanthegerman, that uploading.com is slow too, this file on rapidshare was 20 seconds, where on upload it would have been about 15 mins. which is too long for a small file. So, thanks for the Rapidshare mirror!

well said horusng, hermanthegerman and Badmojo.

Uploading useless in many country.
