Description
Summary:"The Story of the Great Prince Oribeau, King of Mommonia, in the country of Evinland, and the Virtuous Princess Oribelle of Lagenia; extracted from the ancient annals of Ireland and recently translated into French by Nicholas Donneraill of the County of Cork, descendant of the author, to use its full title, was first published in four volumes in 1785. In addition to narrating the educational journeys of Prince Oribeau and his mentor O'Barbo, the book features three separate fairy tales: Mellusine, Sireneh and The Fay Ouroucoucou, connecting the genealogy of the fay to the imaginary history of the story, and the known history of the world, in a fashion that is as ambitious as it ultimately becomes ambiguous"--Page 4, cover.
