Títulos en Cuentos de hadas

Los sueños de la bella durmiente nos llevan del bosque azul de los simbolistas a los callejones tenebrosos del doctor Caligari donde se desplazan los personajes de Emiliano González, con una lentitud que a veces se vuelve exasperante. Las fantasías en verso que acompañan a los relatos quieren reproducir estados de ánimo específicamente literarios, y la literatura que nutre a estos engendros malsanos es la misma que envenenó a nuestros abuelos cuando, a fines del siglo antepasado, exploraban los infiernos de una biblioteca.

Perteneciente a la segunda generación neoclásica junto a autores como Samaniego o Meléndez Valdés, Tomás de Iriarte se suma al abandono del barroquismo con sus Fábulas literarias, una recopilación de apólogos en torno a temas cuya novedad no pasó desapercibida en su época. Retomando la hominización de los animales en la construcción del discurso moral, Iriarte encuentra sus bases en fabulistas clásicos como Esopo. El anhelo de unos valores e ideales morales queda reflejado en estas Fábulas literarias .

"Sir Gawain and the Green Knight" is a late 14th-century chivalric romance in Middle English. The author is unknown; the title was given centuries later. It is one of the best-known Arthurian stories, with its plot combining two types of folk motifs: the beheading game, and the exchange of winnings. Written in stanzas of alliterative verse, each of which ends in a rhyming bob and wheel; it draws on Welsh, Irish, and English stories, as well as the French chivalric tradition.

Demon-beasts claim I have a power that threatens their plans of mass destruction. Joke's on them, since I have no idea how to use it. That doesn't stop them from coming after me, though.

But there's another who wants me too: Helix hunts me relentlessly and says he won't stop until I belong to him instead. The elders say I can only pick one as my guardian. The thing is, I've never been good at following orders.
