Hi all, I am writing a paper for my graduate class on mythology and folklore. It is comparing the original fairy tale to subsequent revisions - republications of the same story. I have to find the tale as close to the original as I possible can. The tale I chose was Puss in Boots. So far the oldest I have been able to 'get my hands on' is from 1841. I called the NYPL the Donnell has an extensive children's collection but only goes back to mid 19th century. The librarian there told me that some professional journals may have a copy of the original tale in an article. I am searching some databases that I am able to access but I am not having much success. does anyone have any suggestions on what search terms I should use, or where else I may be able to find what I need. Thank you for your time and effort.
