books about fairy tales
I'm not looking for collections of fairy tales, but rather a history of the genre, or books analyzing them. I've just finished Bruno Bettelheim's The Uses of Enchantment, for example, but would like more non-Freudian viewpoints.

I should add, I've got the Tolkien book "on fairy tales" - is that considered definitive, or are there others I should read?
