Book 2. Legends of Austria

The book contains legends from the federal states and regions of Austria: Burgenland, Lower Austria, Upper Austria, Salzburg, Styria, Carinthia, Tyrol, Vorarlberg, and Vienna.

The publication was made with the financial support of the Austrian Academic Exchange Service.

«In the XIV century, legends (in German they sound like «Sage»; this word comes from the old name. «saga» and the Middle High German. Sage (meaning "conversation, utterance") were interpreted as "unattested stories about the past". However, it was only in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries (by the Brothers Grimm) that this concept gained popularity. Legends, like fairy tales, were told in a sincere company, but, unlike fairy tales, they were worth believing in. The narrator could have witnessed the events, and information about the place, time and names was passed down from generation to generation with all seriousness. In contrast, fairy tales do not have precise instructions, they are limited to the ambiguous: «Once upon a time…» Fairy tales usually have a happy ending: «And if they did not die, they live to this day». In legends, the ending is mostly sad or moralising" (Andreas Wenninger).
