Description

Fantasy and animation have long been intertwined in popular culture. This collection of essays explores their complex relationship, examining how fantasy storytelling has influenced animated films and television shows, while also considering the impact of animation on our collective understanding of fantasy cinema.

Contributions from leading film and media scholars shed light on key figures such as Ralph Bakshi and James Cameron, as well as iconic franchises like Dreamworks' How To Train Your Dragon and HBO's Game of Thrones. The book delves into the historical, theoretical, and cultural contexts that have shaped the animated fantasy genre.

By bringing together diverse perspectives on this fascinating topic, Fantasy/Animation offers a nuanced understanding of the dynamic interplay between fantasy cinema and animation.
