  • Every source and every claim, on one page

    HTML · one page

    The whole apparatus as one browsable page: the three corrections, the source ledger, all 224 typed claims, and the bibliography.

  • The three corrections

    JSON · 3 records

    Four of five Project Gutenberg identifiers guessed from memory returned a completely different book; one download of a Chinese classic arrived in Chinese; and an Internet Archive error page was found sitting in the previous volume's source library. All three are printed in the book.

  • Source ledger

    JSON · 18 records

    Every source behind the eighteen tales: work, author, edition, the file it was read from, and that file's hash.

  • Claim ledger

    JSON · 224 claims

    All 224 claims, each tagged as a primary or historical source, as scholarship, or as this book's own editorial reading.

  • Claim ledger, as a spreadsheet

    CSV · 224 rows

    The same 224 claims as a CSV, for anyone who would rather sort and filter them somewhere else.

About this material

Everything on this page is Vâliçe Press's own editorial work — ledgers, citations and corrections generated from the book's own records. The underlying texts it cites are public-domain collections and scholarship published between the seventeenth and early twentieth centuries; those are named and dated here rather than reproduced. The retellings stay in the book. These are historical and academic sources, not the direct practice of any living tradition, and no community or outside reviewer has read this material.
