78 fairy tales, myths, and legends from around the world, beautifully illustrated by renowned artist Yoshi Yoshitani.
For centuries, people have told each other amazing stories: about heroes and monsters, about forbidden lands and promised lands. Yoshi Yoshitani, the author of the book 'Tales of the Sublunary World,' invites you to look closely at fairy tale plots and see in them what connects people across time and space, and therefore, helps you understand yourself and your place in the world.
The book contains mythological stories, fables, excerpts from epics, and fairy tales - from the most famous and classic ones to those created by small peoples in remote corners of the world. Scheherazade and Tournadot, Rapunzel and the Fairy Godmother, the three princesses of the White Island and Oedipus. The reader will be interested to learn about the stories that fill our world. And also to observe how all myths have something in common - archetypes that are present in culture, in life, and in ourselves.
Illustrations in a fresh, bright and expressive style complement the tales and contain symbols familiar to all connoisseurs of tarot culture.
