United Public Radio

Welcome to the fascinating world of Fairy. Author and expert, Morgan Daimler is returning, bringing us more of what they’ve found in the field of fairy research and understanding, and assisting us to live respectfully with These Good Neighbours. Morgan is bringing her newest work, Fairy: The Other World by Many names, as well as The Fairy Faith for Children. We’ll also take a look at what’s happening in their fantasy fiction writing. About Fairy: The Other World by Many Names - The world of Fairy has intrigued humanity across folklore and literature for as long as we have written records and into the modern period. This book seeks to detangle the convoluted history of the world of Fairy by looking at the various cultural beliefs that form the basis of the wider view and explore how those beliefs interact and impact each other. We will explore the Irish Soal Eile, Scottish Elfland, English Fairy, and Welsh Annwn before delving into modern and popcultural understandings of this Otherworld so intrinsically bound to our own. About The Fairy Faith For Children - The Fairy Faith is a way to approach believing in fairies based in centuries of folklore. This book, written for children ages 8 to 12, explores what fairies are, what the Fairy Faith is, and how children can engage with these beliefs. Chapters focus on fairy belief, practices associated with those beliefs, stories of fairies, and an exploration of various specific types of fairy beings, and include several lists of suggestions for children to explore these ideas further. Perfect for children interested in fairies who want to engage with belief through folklore and folk practices.
