Andrew Lang (1844 – 1912) was a Scots poet, novelist, literary critic, and contributor to the field of anthropology. He is best known as a collector of folk and fairy tales. The Andrew Lang lectures at the University of St Andrews are named after him. Lang was also a prolific author of works both fiction and non-; he wrote his own fairy tales such as Prince Prigio and Prince Ricardo of Pantouflia , and wrote numerous historical texts. 'The Escape Of The Mouse' is a fairy-tale that was published as a part of the collection book 'The Lilac Fairy Book' in 1910. This story represents a brilliant example of celtic folklore. This story is about blood-thirsty and avenging princes. 'Once an insult is made it cannot be forgiven' — so they think, and the revenge leads to a chain of terrible events.
