Will O' the Wisp in the Town, Says the Moor Man
1872 FAIRY TALES OF HANS CHRISTIAN ANDERSEN THE WILL-O-THE WISP IS IN THE TOWN, SAYS THE MOOR WOMAN Hans Christian Andersen Andersen, Hans Christian (1805-1875) - A Danish writer who is remembered as one of the world’s greatest story-tellers. Although most of his poems, novels, and dramas have been forgotten, his Fairy Tales, (compiled 1835- 1872), have gained him lasting fame. The Will-o’-the-Wisp is in the Town - One of Hans Christian Andersen’s Fairy Tales. A man who used to know many stories searches for the Story that used to come of its own accord. A Moor- woman tells him of the Will-o’-the-Wisp. THE WILL-O-THE WISP IS IN THE TOWN SAYS THE MOOR WOMAN THERE was a man who once knew many stories, but they had slipped away from him- so he said. The Story that used to visit him of its own accord no longer came and knocked at his door. And why did it come no longer? It is true enough that for days and years the man had not thought of it, had not expected it to come and knock; and if he had expected it, it would certainly not have come; for without there was war, and within was the care and sorrow that war brings with it. The stork and the swallows came back from their long journey, for they thought of no danger; and, behold, when they arrived, the nest was burnt, the habitations of men were burnt, the hedges were all in disorder, and everything seemed gone, and the enemy’s horses were stamping in the old graves.

The Forest of Magic & Mystery: the Wily Will-‐O-‐The-‐Whisp
SPARKLE HALLOWEEN EVENTS The Forest of Magic & Mystery: the Wily Will-O-The-Whisp David and Lisabeth Sewell McCann, Sparkle Stories PRODUCTION NOTES: This “play” is structured as a series of short performances – to be experienced by groups of people in the order given below. Each of the “stations” needs to be spaced apart – enough distance so that the action of one doesn’t distract from another. This can be performed in woods or fields or parks, or even in the classrooms and along the halls of schools. Or it could be in different houses of a neighborhood. The path between the stations can be lit with jack-o-lanterns or luminarios. At the performance’s end, there should be a table that represents the “fairy ball” with edible treats. There is a lot of “singing” and “dancing” in this show – but this in no way needs to sound or seem “professional”. The songs can be the simplest diddies – or even spoken as verses. As long as the performer is having fun, so will the children! Below is the “script”. The play is interactive, and so the language can be flexible and open to improvisation and embellishment. The logistical details, however, do need to be included and stressed – as they propel the story and the journey for our “travelers” or the children who have come to enjoy themselves. RECOMMENDATIONS: Have a volunteer parent “guide” go with each group to help direct, in case the children forget the clues or songs. Parents should join children on the walk. No unattended children.

Fat Fairies 1
Peterson Fat Fairies 1 Fat Fairies: Stereotype, Body Type, and Personality of TV Godmothers (Presented at UC Berkeley’s Western States Folklore Conference on April 8, 2016) Before getting to her magical work, Cinderella’s 1950 Disney godmother rolls up her sleeves and realizes that she seems to have misplaced her wand. She bumbles about, looks under the garden bench, shakes out her dress before announcing, “Oh! I forgot: I put it away!” Busy godmothers can forget things, but this fairy’s absent mindedness doesn’t end there. Moments later this pudgy Disney godmother nods her head approvingly to send Cinderella off to the ball still dressed in her rags before realizing, “Good heavens, child! You can’t go to the ball in that!” Thus our round friend is a little absent-minded at times, but she leaves us with an iconic image of fairy godmothers: that they are chubby and therefore cheery. Fast forward now to 2015 and let’s watch this same scene. For actress Helena Bonham Carter Disney got rid of the rounded body type (though, not necessarily the round dress). But Carter’s godmother takes her pumpkin into the greenhouse to turn it into a coach—and nearly misses getting squashed by the pumpkin’s enlargement. Yes, Disney got rid of the round body from 1950, but what did that leave them with? The ditzy godmother who cannot think through her own magical spells. I wondered if these large and airheaded, chubby and cheery godmothers were just a Disney-sponsored formula. But they weren’t. From 1950-2016, animation to live-action, Disney to non-Disney, my research finds that most fairy godmothers across the film industry and on TV are either fat or foolish—and they are usually a combination of both.

Chapter on History of the Otherworld
PERCEPTIONS OF ANNWN: THE OTHERWORLD IN THE FOUR BRANCHES OF THE MABINOGI Rhian Rees MA Celtic Studies Dissertation Department of Welsh and Bilingual Studies Supervisor: Dr Jane Cartwright University of Wales Trinity Saint David, Lampeter 2012 2 ABSTRACT There is little description or positive information about the realm of Annwn in the Four Branches, and relatively few publications have explored the Otherworld in the Mabinogi in any depth. The redactor presumably did not deem such detail necessary since in his time the Otherworld was a place familiar to his audience from many other stories and folk-tales which have not survived to inform our own times. The objective of this thesis, therefore, is to establish the perceived location of the Celtic Otherworld, its nature and topography, and to obtain descriptions of its people, buildings and animals and any distinctive objects or characteristics pertaining to it. The ways in which Annwn influences each of the Four Branches are also considered. Some sketchy evidence is available in Welsh poetry, mostly various descriptive names reflecting different aspects of Annwn, but for more detailed information it is necessary to trawl the waters of early Irish literature. The Irish poems and stories give much fuller particulars of all characteristics of the Celtic Otherworld, though they do suggest that there was more than one such other world. Some parallels from Norse literature and the Lais of Marie de France also reinforce certain themes of this thesis, such as magical tumuli and magical bags and

While she was sewing, she looked out at the snow and pricked her finger with the needle. Three drops of blood fell onto the snow” (Snow White 81). This is a quote which many may recognize as the opening to the famous fairy tale Snow White. But how many would take notice of the number three in the last sentence of the quote and question its significance? Why, specifically, did three drops of blood fall from the queen’s finger? The quote from Snow White is just one example of many in which the number three presents itself as a significant part of the story.

Few things have been more lovely in the marvellous English poetry of the last three centuries than its pictures of the fairy world, real to our ancestors. So persistent was the fairy note throughout the evolution of our literature, that from ShaKespeare, Drayton and HerricK, to Swinburne, Tennyson and Rossetti the tribute to the elfin realm was paid, and to-day in Ireland and Gaelic Scotland the horns of Elfland still blow "of perilous seas in faery lands forlorn." No other literature save Greece has given us glimpses of the mysterious land of phantasy and charm that equal the pictures of the English poets.
