«Psicoanálisis de los cuentos de hadas» is Bruno Bettelheim's essay, published by Critica in paperback (464 pages, in Spanish).
Bettelheim analyses classic fairy tales and argues that, beyond entertainment, they help children work through fears, desires and inner conflicts. Their symbolism and restorative endings convey moral lessons and foster emotional and intellectual maturity, an essential formative value in childhood.
The cover bears the subtitle: «La extraordinaria importancia de los cuentos de hadas para la formación moral e intelectual de los niños».
Recommended for educators, parents and readers interested in child psychology and the symbolic interpretation of classic tales.

Bruno Bettelheim was an Austrian-born American psychologist, scholar, public intellectual and writer who spent most of his academic and clinical career in the United States. An early writer on autism, Bettelheim's work focused on the education of emotionally disturbed children, as well as Freudian psychology more generally. In the U.S., he later gained a position as professor at the University of Chicago and director of the Sonia Shankman Orthogenic School for Disturbed Children, and after 1973 taught at Stanford University.
