Description
This revised edition of Breaking the Magic Spell offers a fresh perspective on the enduring power of fairy tales. In seven thought-provoking essays, Arthur Lennig examines how oral folk tales have evolved into literary narratives, often losing their original ideological context.
The book explores the influence of folklore on popular culture and literature, tracing the evolution of fairy tales from their origins to their modern adaptations. By examining a range of authors, including those who have shaped our understanding of these stories, Lennig sheds new light on the complex relationship between folklore and literature.
