The Green Children of Woolpit

Chronicles, Fairies and Facts in Medieval England

Beschreibung

This book introduces the story of the â Green Childrenâ and how it has been interpreted, retold, and reworked. Analysing the two accounts, and offering fresh translations from the Latin originals, it considers what the historians tell us happened, and then the childrenâ s own story of their homeland.
