This edition is based on the artistic retelling of ballads, legends and tales of Scotland. In addition to special characters of folklore (Thomas the Rhymer, Ian Derek and the Brown Fox, the Black Bull of Norwell, the Faynes), monsters (the Lord of the Sea Serpent, Dreglin Hogni) and fairy creatures (fairies, brownies, were-seals, giants) the world of Scottish fairy tales differs from those we are used to both in the structure of the plot and in the mood - poetic descriptions of local nature are sometimes combined with a gloomy atmosphere of the narrative. Constant references to historical places of Great Britain and the British Isles make even a magical fiction - extremely realistic. The texts are accompanied by an abridged essay by J.R.R. Tolkien on fairy tales.
