This little poem we’re reading today profoundly influenced the American tradition of Santa Claus. Moore had St. Nicholas coming on Christmas Eve, rather than Christmas Day, as did Washington Irving, in his Old Christmas series of essays. The Christmas visitor had many different influences at the time, and the popularity of this poem solidified the character of Santa Claus. Often referred to as “T’was the Night Before Christmas”, it was originally published in 1823.
And now, A Visit from St. Nicholas, by Clement Moore

Welcome to The Classic Tales Podcast. Thank you for listening.
I’d like to thank those of you who have helped us out these last couple of weeks. In case you missed it, Cilla was diagnosed with breast cancer last year. She’s fine, now. She’d had her surgery and is now considered cancer-free. But those cancer bills are no joke.
I’m so very grateful to all our supporters who have and do support us, but I’m afraid I need your help again. If you’d like to ensure the future of The Classic Tales, please visit the website, classictalesaudiobooks.com, and either make a donation, buy an audiobook, or pick up one of our many support options.

Does the robber’s forest actually transform into a sumptuous garden on Christmas Eve? Selma Lagerlöf, today on The Classic Tales Podcast.
Welcome to The Classic Tales Podcast. Thank you for listening.
I’d like to thank those of you who have helped us out this week. As I mentioned last week, Cilla was diagnosed with breast cancer last year. She’s fine, now. She’d had her surgery and is now considered cancer-free. But it’s been a rough time. We’re still dealing with the aftermath, and those cancer bills are no joke.
I’m so very grateful to all our supporters who have and do support us, but I’m afraid I need your help again.

Not looking to get rich, here. Just trying to make it through this rough patch. So, if you can lend a hand, we’d really appreciate it. Lifetime passes are still 60% off.
Selma Lagerlöf was a Swedish writer, who lived from 1858-1940. She was the first woman to be awarded the Nobel Prize for literature in 1909, “in appreciation of the lofty idealism, vivid imagination, and spiritual perception that characterize her writings”.
And now, “The Legend of the Christmas Rose”, by Selma Lagerlöf.

Where will the little fir tree’s burning desire for adventure take him? Hans Christian Andersen, today on The Classic Tales Podcast.
Welcome to The Classic Tales Podcast. Thank you for listening.
Well, we’re in a bit of a fix, and we need your help. And as usual, I’ve left it until the last minute. Last year, Cilla was diagnosed with breast cancer. She’s fine, now. She’d had her surgery and is now considered cancer-free. But we’re still dealing with the aftermath, and let’s just say it’s a pretty blue Christmas around here.
We’re about to start season 19 of the podcast, and I honestly don’t know how I’ve kept the lights on this long. But it’s been my absolute joy to do this show. I’m so very grateful to all of our supporters who have and do support us, but I’m afraid I need your help again.

Legends tell of a spectral Black Monk who last appeared a thousand years ago. When he appears to Kovrin, does it mean he insane or inspired? Anton Chekhov, today on The Classic Tales Podcast.
Welcome to The Classic Tales Podcast. Thank you for listening.
The Vintage Episode for the week is “Frankenstein, Part 8 of 8”, by Mary Shelley. Be sure to check it out on Tuesday.
If you have found value in the show, please consider becoming a monthly supporter. Help us to help other folks like you.
Please go to http://classictalesaudiobooks.com and become a monthly supporter today. I think you’ll find we make it worth your while.
Insanity or inspiration? Today’s story follows Kovrin, an overworked scholar and young professor, who takes a long break in visiting the family who raised him. But when he sees the fabled Black Monk, is it a sign of insanity? Or is it inspiration? Chekhov explores themes of the selfish genius, contrasting that with selfless sacrificing for family. I hope you like it.
And now, “The Black Monk”, Part 1 of 2, by Anton Chekhov.
