" Greece is a country famed worldwide for its physical beauty, wealth of antiquities and other vestiges of its unsurpassed ancient civilisation. Yet despite over ten million annual visitors and an open and inviting culture, modern Greece is not an easy country for outsiders to understand or comprehend fully. Countless tourist guides extoll its resorts and archaeological tomes unravel its classical past, but there are few books that attempt to explore the many complexities of Greek life and lifestyles right here in the present. Until now, that is, "It's All Greece to Me: Impressions of Contemporary Greek Life", by longtime Athens News contributor John F.L. Ross, offers an accessible and dependable guide to the nooks and crannies of the modern Greek character, mentallity, customs and attitudes. It offers a sharp-eyed and challenging yet sympathetic look at the rapidly changing nature of contemporary Greece at the dawn of the new milleniium. Throughout, Ross writes with the clarity, gentle wit and perceptive insight that readers have come to expect from the author of the longrunning and popular Thursday column "On Second Thought." Book

cm. 17 x 24, xii-404 pp. Biblioteca di ?Lares? Le ?Fiabe siciliane? (Lipsia, 1870) di Laura Gonzenbach, la prima grande raccolta commentata di narrazioni popolari italiane, sono analizzate sotto varie angolature: dalla genesi alla storia della ricezione, dall?analisi strutturale e morfologica all?indagine secondo gli indici regionali, nazionali e internazionali di tipi e motivi fiabeschi. Il duplice versante su cui si attestava l?autrice imprime alla silloge il suo carattere originale rispetto ai valori di poco successivi di Giuseppe Pitr? This monograph is dedicated to the first collection of commented popular Italian stories that are analysed from various points of view: from the genesis to the history of their receptivity, from a structural and morphological analysis to an investigation on the regional, national and international indicator of fairy tale themes. The slope on which the authoress abuts gives her anthology an original style compared to the latter works by Giuseppe Pitr? 757 gr. xii-404 p.
