Even after dismissing the stories by ten-year-olds who did n't own typewriters and sent in handwritten stories—which I couldn't use even if t heir stories were Nebula quality, which they usually, to put it as charitably as possible, aren't—and throwing out unread the single spaced efforts by people who ought to know better, and ploughing through all the stories about people who are called sorceresses but, for all the magic we ever see, might as well be plumber s or carpenters—well, I'm ranting again. But if I can't sound off in my own editorials, where can I? A little rant reli eves the mind, but even amateurs ought to know a little about the business they' re trying to get into. If I had never taken voice lessons and was tone deaf, wou ld I be singing at the Metropolitan Opera or conducting the Philharmonic? So why would a would-be writer fail to learn grammar? But they do. Some New Age types, with more compassion than brains, insist that everyone has talent and simply needs a chance to release her creativity! Maybe so—in play therapy. But not in my anthologies, thank you. I can't help thinking how happy I'd have been even with some of the stories I must now reject when this anthology was getting started. I found out with shock and disillusion that many—or even most—editors do not share my delight in slush pile s. Where I see all that new unformed talent— those young, original, undiscovered voices—some editors see only the yahoo who cou ldn't write his way out of a paper bag. The only thing that makes me angry is people who send stories to me without ha ving read my current guidelines. So, if you want to submit to me, first send a S ASE (Self-Addressed Stamped Envelope) to me at PO Box 72, Berkeley, CA 94701, an d get the guidelines. A lot of slush is just that. But sometimes you do find a pearl in all these oy sters. I still find plenty—and that's what makes it all worthwhile. While some edi tors think only of all the frogs they have to kiss, I keep my mind on the rare p earls. Or princes, depending on which metaphor you're using. And that's what people mean by talking about their sense of wonder. The best e ditors never lose it—and so I go back for just one more wet smelly oyster. Maybe t his one will contain the pearl. And if not this one, maybe the next. Who knows? It might be yours. CALL THE WILD HORSES by Bunnie Bessell Bunnie Bessell is one of those young writers of whom I think with pride as "one of ours," since her first sale was to me, to Marion Zimmer Bradley's Fantasy Mag azine. One of my chief delights is to discover the new writers who will turn out to have careers as writers—so I'll have something to read when the others are cal led—as so many of my own long-ago generation—to that great SF Convention in the afte rlife. I'm looking out to see so many of my own contemporaries there. Bunnie Bessell says of herself that she has always been a storyteller. As a ch ild she believed that small creatures lived inside her who came out at night and told their adventures to her two sisters as they huddled under the covers. That 's really how every fiction writer I know started. Despite all the New Age stuff about releasing one's own creativity, we all started with some variation of lov ing "Pretend" more than any other game. Another thing she says rings such a bell that it might have been my own teens. She was "the kind of adolescent who was s till playing make-believe while others were discovering boys." I, for instance, was the one who hid in the library while other girls my age were being herded in to the gym at noon for mandatory social adjustment—meaning dancing with boys—which m ay be why schools are in trouble: too much emphasis on social skills instead of reading. At the risk of being thought reactionary, I suggest schools return thei r emphasis to making the kids literate instead of emphasizing "social adjustment " to such a degree that girls drop out to be married while still illiterate. Bunnie adds that (like me) she wrote h er first book in seventh grade and that it was a science fiction thriller. "It n ow resides in the darkest recess under my bed. Don't we all have one under our b eds?" Well, no; sometimes we drag them out when we're in our forties and rewrite the m, and they get nominated for Hugos! Mine did! Maybe yours will. If it's as inte resting as this tale of a horse-clan sorceress, it just might. Bunnie also adds that she collects wind-up toys and, having no children, has d ecided "to become the world's greatest aunt." She now has the honor of adoring, befriending, and frolicking with eleven marvelous nieces and nephews. One great thing about aunthood, Bunnie: nieces and nephews never—or very seldom—wake you up fo r a diaper change or a bottle at 3 a.m. You get a lot more sleep—and time to dream up plots—that way. She's female, 40 something, lives in Arlington, Texas, and is a "dedicated hug ger." Long may she hug—and keep on writing. It took all of Marlee's courage to walk into the circle of the campfire. She did n't look to either side, not wanting to meet the stares of the Clan women, but k ept her gaze fixed straight ahead. The chatter of conversation fell silent as sh e entered. On the other side of the fire, Hesta stood up and Marlee came to a halt in fro nt of her. Her heart ached at the sight of the older woman. Hesta had been secon d mother to Marlee since her own mother died many years back. Once, she would ha ve stepped forward to hug Hesta, but she had lost that right twelve months ago. Sabrine came from behind Marlee, shoved her aside, and stood next to Hesta. "T ell her to leave," she demanded, pointing at Marlee. "She's done enough harm." Fearing Hesta would send her away, Marlee quickly tossed off her outer cloak a nd sank to her knees in front of the fire. Underneath she wore only a plain, sho rt tunic of untanned hide. "I, Marlee, daughter of Quebacc, granddaughter of Iris, great-granddaughter of Leemay, ask to serve the Horse Clan." She heard grumbled surprise at her words but carefully kept reciting the ritual plea of a novice to join the Callers. "On this the Night of Calling, I wi ll touch the minds of fillies and colts, of mares and of stallions. I will share their thoughts and bring them forth in p-peace," she stumbled over the word. "I will bid them to live among the People, to serve the Clan and to be one wit h the Clan. I do this so that the People and the Herd might grow and prosper. I will Call the Wild Horses from the Great Herd and make them gentle." Then she bowed her head. "I will Call for the Horse Clan if This Leader wills it." She waited, knowing she should not look up until Hesta pronounced her decis ion. She had knelt like this five years ago, truly a novice then. Juliane had been by her side. They had been young and full of excitement. Neither doubted that th ey would be allowed to join the Callers. Both girls came from families strong wi th the Caller magic. Their acceptance had been quick and their first Calling cel ebrated happily.

  • CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION 1.1 Background of Study It Was
    CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION 1.1 Background of Study It was amazing and amusing when in my childhood listen the fable story of Sang Kancil and its series (the mouse deer) as the most popular children stories in my childhood. This story firstly was undocumented and it was told orally from the parents to their children. Such the traditional story shows the traditional setting of culture, custom, and nature as well. The jungle, the river and the farm field characterizes the setting of story. While the crocodile, snail, tiger, elephant, farmer, and the mouse deer itself became the characters in the story. It firmly depicts the influence of culture and nature to the traditional children stories. Being Sang Kancil (the mouse deer) is the well - known story for children, mostly it was told every day before the children were slept by the parents. Consequently, the following day, the children discussion in the school will talk of the abundance of this story, discussing the smartness of the mouse deer, laughing at the elephant’s silliness, crocodile’s confusion, and tiger stupidity, chatting how could the mouse deer cheat them and so forth. The simple discussion of the children dealing with the story is always about the amusement, funny, and entertaining simple topics. Attending the children to listen the stories will emerge two kinds of possibilities, first they will be laughing and happy and perhaps secondly, they will yawn as the reaction of their boredom. It is the natural response and honest expression from the children from the entire world in acquainted with the interesting and uninteresting of the stories that they have heard.

  • 'An Ancient Tale New Told' Shakespeare's Use of Folk- AND
    ‘An ancient tale new told’ Shakespeare’s use of folk- and Fairy Tales as Sources for his Plays Submitted by Ciara Rawnsley BA (Hons) This thesis is presented for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of The University of Western Australia School of Humanities The University of Western Australia Crawley, WA 6009 Australia August 2013 ABSTRACT hakespeare drew inspiration for his plays from a wealth of different sources, but the ones usually discussed are in written, literary forms which are still accessible: the chronicles of Holinshed and Plutarch’s The Lives of the Noble Greeks and Romans, Ovid’s Metamorphoses and popular romance, Italian novelle pre-eminently. What has long been neglected, however, is the abundance of traditional oral stories in circulation during Shakespeare’s youth: folk- and fairy tales in particular. This thesis aims to identify and explore Shakespeare’s reliance on this major, though largely unrecorded, well of inspiration, and argues that the playwright made frequent use of folktale plotlines, motifs, and figures in his plays, often superimposing several folk stories in one drama. This may partly explain why Shakespeare has so often been adapted for children, by writers from Charles and Mary Lamb to the present day. The thesis proposes, moreover, that Shakespeare not only drew on the narrative patterns and plots of folktales, but that he also utilised the powerful but latent emotional subtexts such tales encode. This is particularly evident in All’s Well That Ends Well and Cymbeline, the two plays discussed in detail, which have proved theatrically effective but have always puzzled critics, arguably because their links with folktales have not been investigated.
