The Feminist Architecture of Postmodern Anti-Tales (eBook, PDF)

Space, Time, and Bodies

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This monograph aims to counter the assumption that the anti-tale is a 'subversive twin' or dark side of the fairy tale coin, instead it argues that the anti-tale is a genre rich in complexity and radical potential that fundamentally challenges the damaging ideologies and socializing influence of fairy tales.

Rezensionen

This monograph excels in offering original close-reading analyses of a selection ofpostmillennial speculative fantastic narratives. The four chapters pursue an innovativeagenda by tracing the kaleidoscopic patterns of contemporary fictional attempts atreimagining notions of space, time, and body, while revindicating the validity of the genericcategory "postmodern feminist anti-tale". -- Dr habil Anna Kérchy, Associate Professor,University of Szeged, Hungary
