Description:
(New York): Oxford University Press, (1999). First edition. Octavo, black boards, pp. [xv], 272; illustrated. From the cover blurb, "Teeming with creatures, both real and imagined, this encyclopedic study in cultural history illuminates the hidden web of connections between the Victorian fascination with fairies and their lore and the dominant pre-occupations of Victorian culture at large. Carole Silver draws on sources ranging from the anthropological, folkloric, and occult to the legal, historical and medical. She is the first to atomize a world peopled by strange beings who have infiltrated both the literary and visual masterpieces and the minor works of the writers and painters of that era". Fine copy in a dust jacket with a crease to the lower corner of the rear flap..
