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 False Prince and the True' — a fairy tale that was published as a part of 'The Lilac Fairy Book' in 1910. It tells us a story of a prince who gets in a quarrel over tennis and gets beaten there. The prince doesn't strike back but cries instead. The king is dissapointed with his son's behaviour, but he must punsh the man who has insulted the heir to the throne. Now that man has got only 14 days to find a way to stay alive...
