"Tales from the Lands of Nuts and Grapes (Spanish and Portuguese Folklore)" by Charles Sellers is a collection of folk tales written in the late 19th century. This work highlights the rich narrative traditions of Spain and Portugal, weaving tales filled with magical elements, moral lessons, and cultural insights. The stories feature various characters, including ingenious students, ugly princesses, and enchanted creatures, reflecting the unique folklore and heritage of the Iberian Peninsula. The opening of the collection introduces the author’s intentions and beliefs about the importance of preserving original folklore, which has often been overlooked or misrepresented in past compilations. The narrative begins with the tale of Juan Rivas, a clever student facing poverty, who rallies his equally destitute companions to seek wealth through clever schemes. This initial story sets a tone of humor and resourcefulness that is likely to resonate throughout the collection, drawing readers into a world where ingenuity and adventure reveal the core values and moral dilemmas inherent to the cultures of Spain and Portugal.
