Opis

Examines contemporary retellings of perhaps the world's best-known fairy tale in a large corpus of international children's texts, many of which have never been translated into English.

Recenzje

"Beckett's book is a welcome addition not only to fairy-tale scholarship, but also to the study of intertextuality and postmodernist play, whether thay play is textual or pictorial." Cathy Preston, Marvels & Tales
