The Interpretation of Fairy Tales

by Roy Wilkinson

The reality of the fairy stories lies in the fact that their content portrays soul experiences, cosmic truths, the process of the individual's development, the elemental world, folk wisdom, and apocalyptic imaginations. These "reports," however, are not couched in conceptual language, but in imaginative pictures. A whole world of spiritual scientific knowledge is contained in them.

This book interprets thirty-nine popular fairy tales from an Anthroposophical point of view.
