Myths about mermaids. From sirens and Melusine to ningyo and Ariel

Mermaids and other mythical creatures dwelling in water have fascinated people's imagination long before Ariel sold her voice to the sea witch in Disney's adaptation of 'The Little Mermaid'. Ancient sirens and medieval Melusine, Scottish selkies and Japanese ningyo, countless... water spirits from all continents — they are multifaceted and elusive, like the shimmering of sea water under the sun.
The authors of this book have gathered dozens of stories from all corners of the world — from classic plots to local legends — to show how the image of mermaids has changed with the development of global culture and reflected its most important trends.
