Storytelling on the Social Network Station and “The Ecology of Pooh”

Returning to blogging after I finish translating The Enchanted Quill, an anthology of nineteenth-century fairy tales collected by Franz Xaver Schoenwerth.  Once you read these stories, you will abandon any ideas about the literary transmission of fairy tales–these are tales in the raw, not cooked to suit the tastes of the literate.  My deadline is Sunday at midnight.  For now, a fascinating article about the ecology of Pooh, and yesterday’s interview on storytelling with the wonderful Jane and Dr. J. on the Social Network Station.
