HI there,

i added the original entry for fairy and was just editing it to add the info regarding a midsummer nights dream - and discovered someone else was doing the same thing at that very moment... who are you? :)

Sorry about that. Saw a gap and leapt in. If you're working on something it's useful to put a to be continued marker in it! sjc

Oh No worries at all - just interesting, coz I added the original entry ages ago, and just decided to add something :) (CatS - i don't actually have an account, perhaps I should create one.)

Yeah, having an account is nice. So much more human than an IP address! It's nice to be able to put names to contributions, too. sjc
Actually, the more I think and look at this the more I think we probably need a Fairies in art and Fairies in literature spin-off from this page. sjc
Hmmm - yes, a very good idea - and also something about cross cultural fairies perhaps? and what about Elves, Gnomes, Leprechauns,

Goblins etc?

How about having divisions for different cultures' ideas of fairies? And the history of belief in them? Around the time of the Scottish Reformation Scottish fairy belief started to change quite substantially, for example. Just a thought -Egoinos
