Description

Marvelous Transformations is an innovative anthology of fairy tales and related criticism that reflects current, interdisciplinary scholarship on oral traditions and the cultural history of the fairy tale. Tales range chronologically from ancient Egypt to the twenty-first century. A collection of modern and postmodern tales from authors such as Neil Gaiman, Kelly Link, and Marina Warner shows the continuing vitality of this ancient genre.
