Recenzje

"[...] the interdisciplinary mode of this text offers a fascinating and needed intervention in the field, relocating criticism of fairy tales from historically and nationally based analysis of when and where fairy tales operate and in what contexts, to how fairy tales travel across cultures and media and how this impacts the perceived function of the tales. To decouple fairy tales from their assumed spaces and relocate them within a media culture that is constantly transforming and recreating itself is a step long needed in the field of fairy-tale studies." - Michelle Anya Anjirbag, in Jeunesse, Vol 11 No 1 (2019)
