Fairies are a challenging subject, intertwining culture, folklore, and anecdotal accounts across centuries and millennia. From ancient sources to living, breathing cultures within the Native Fairy Faith. Focusing primarily on the Celtic speaking cultures, with some material from adjacent cultures including Anglo-Saxon and Norse, A New Dictionary of Fairies has in-depth entries on a variety of fairies and ‘fairy like’ beings. It also delves into subjects related to them, such as why we picture elves with pointed ears or where the idea of invisible fairies comes from. It also tackles more complicated topics like the nature and physicality of the fairy people. Anyone with an interest in the Good Neighbours will find this book a solid, readable resource to draw from.
A fantastic reference book for those wishing to learn about the Indigenous Fairy Faith and it’s otherworldly inhabitants.
