More about the book
Renowned for being one of the earliest fairy tale collections, this work features stories originally written in the Neapolitan language. Giambattista Basile's tales, including recognizable favorites like Cinderella and Sleeping Beauty, are some of the oldest known versions still in existence. Initially overlooked, the collection gained prominence after being referenced by the Brothers Grimm, leading to translations that broadened its reach. This edition, printed on premium acid-free paper, presents the complete translation by Richard F. Burton, ensuring its timeless appeal.
