D．The Story Behind Boxing

The Mother Goose Stories, so well known to children all over the world, are commonly said to have been written by a little old woman for her grandchildren.  According to some people, she lived in Boston,  and her real name was Elizabeth Vergoose. Her son-in-law, a printer named Thomas Fleet, was supposed to have published the famous stories and poems for small children in 1719. However, no copy of this book has ever been found, and most scholars doubt the truth of this story—and doubt, moreover, whether Mother Goose was ever a real person. They point out that the name is a direct translation of the French “Mere I’Oye”. In 1695 the Frenchman Charles Perrault published the first book in which this name was used.  The collection contains eight tales, including “Sleeping Beauty”,  “Cinderella”,  and “Puss in Boots”. But Perrault did not originate these stories; they were already quite popular in his day, and he only collected them. In 1729 there appeared an English translation of Perrault’s collection, Robert Samber’s Histories or Tales of Past Times, Told by Mother Goose(London, 1729),  which introduced “Sleeping Beauty”,  “Little Red-hood”, “Puss in Boots”, “Cinderella” and other Perrault’s tales to English-speaking audiences. These were fairy tales(童話). John Newbery published a book of English rhymes，Mother Goose’s Melody, or Sonnets for the Cradle(London,  undated, 1765),  which switched the focus from fairy tales to nursery rhymes, and in English this was until recently the primary meaning for Mother Goose. A book of poems for children entitled Mother Goose’s Melody was published in England in 1781, and the name “Mother Goose” has been associated with children’s poetry ever since.
