| Summary | "La Coupe" by George Sand is a fairy tale written in the late 19th century. The narrative revolves around a young prince who, in an attempt to explore the mountains, falls into a glacier's depths, leading to a series of mystical encounters with fairies and other magical beings. The story unfolds themes of innocence and the contrast between human mortality and fairy immortality, as the prince navigates his new existence within the fairy realm. The opening of the story introduces the young prince, who, guided by his governor, ventures too close to the edge of a glacier and disappears into its icy depths. As he faces the perils of the cold and darkness, his loyal dog leaps in to save him, showcasing themes of loyalty and bravery. Eventually, a beautiful fairy named Zilla finds the child and decides to bring him to the hidden valley of the fairies. This sets the stage for an exploration of the differences between the child’s human nature and the fairies' immortal characteristics, hinting at the complexities of love, care, and the struggle for understanding between these two worlds.
