The Frog King - Fairy Tale Talks with Hannah Custis


Listen Later

I had the wonderful chance to sit down with Hannah Custis (a fellow fairy tale/myth enthusiast) to discuss the fairy tale "The Frog King", which is the lesser known version of "The Princess and the Frog". 🐸


We talk about the cultural and societal perspectives of fairy tales, Jungian symbolism, and our own personal take on the fairy tale. ✨


We used WonderLit (a spectacular fairy tale/story course) on our own to delve deeper into this fairy tale. I mention it in the podcast, and as promised here is a link if you are interested:

I also mention 2 wonderful fairy tale collections:

"Tatterhood and Other Tales" and "The Maid of the North" by Edith Johnston Phelps

And here is a link to the wonderful talk by Marina Warner (feminist fairy tale scholar), that we also mention in the podcast:
