In this, the first collection of essays to address the development of fairy tale film as a genre, Pauline Greenhill and Sidney Eve Matrix stress, ""the mirror of fairy-tale film reflects not so much what its audience members actually are but how they see themselves and their potential to develop (or, likewise, to regress)."" As Jack Zipes says further in the foreword, "Folk and fairy tales pervade our lives constantly through television soap operas and commercials, in comic books and cartoons, in school plays and storytelling performances, in our superstitions and prayers for miracles,

The Enchanted Screen: The Unknown History of Fairy-Tale Films offers readers a long overdue, comprehensive look at the rich history of fairy tales and their influence on film, complete with the inclusion of an extensive filmography compiled by the author. With this book, Jack Zipes not only looks at the extensive, illustrious life of fairy tales and cinema, but he also reminds us that, decades before Walt Disney made his mark on the genre, fairy tales were central to the birth of cinema as a medium, as they offered cheap, copyright-free material that could easily engage audiences not only though their familiarity but also through their dazzling special effects. Since the story of fairy tales on film stretches far beyond Disney, this book, therefore, discusses a broad range of films silent, English and non-English, animation, live-action, puppetry, woodcut, montage (Jim Henson), cartoon, and digital. Zipes, thus, gives his readers an in depth look into the special relationship between fairy tales and cinema, and guides us through this vast array of films by tracing the adaptations of major fairy tales like "Little Red Riding Hood," "Cinderella," "Snow White," "Peter Pan," and many more, from their earliest cinematic appearances to today. Full of insight into some of our most beloved films and stories, and boldly illustrated with numerous film stills, The Enchanted Screen, is essential reading for film buffs and fans of the fairy tale alike.

"Fairy-tale adaptations are ubiquitous in modern popular culture, but readers and scholars alike may take for granted the many voices and traditions folded into today's tales. In Fairy Tales Transformed?: Twenty-First-Century Adaptations and the Politics of Wonder, accomplished fairy-tale scholar Cristina Bacchilega traces what she terms a "fairy-tale web" of multivocal influences in modern adaptations, asking how tales have been changed by and for the early twenty-first century. Dealing mainly with literary and cinematic adaptations for adults and young adults, Bacchilega investigates the linked and yet divergent social projects these fairy tales imagine, their participation and competition in multiple genre and media systems, and their relation to a politics of wonder that contests a naturalized hierarchy of Euro-American literary fairy tale over folktale and other wonder genres." -- Publisher website.

"For centuries, fairy tales and folktales have given us- children and adults- the opportunity to escape from reality by transporting us to magical worlds of flying broomsticks, enchanted forests, spells, ogres, talking animals, princes, princesses, castles and dragons".

L’intérêt du public n’a jamais faibli pour Jacques Demy, un des cinéastes les plus singuliers de la Nouvelle Vague, auteur entre autres de Lola, Les Parapluies de Cherbourg, Les Demoiselles de Rochefort, Peau d’Âne et Une chambre en ville. Aucune monographie nouvelle, pourtant, ne lui a été consacrée en France depuis plus de vingt ans, comme s’il ne devait être l’objet que des somptueux livres d’images qui se sont multipliés sur sa vie et son œuvre. L’étude finement détaillée de l’universitaire américaine Anne E. Duggan vient combler ce manque et stimuler la réflexion en s’attachant principalement à cinq films analysés en profondeur (aussi bien Lola, Les Parapluies de Cherbourg et Peau d’Âne que les moins connus The Pied Piper et Lady Oscar) pendant que d’autres films du cinéaste sont évoqués plus rapidement. L’approche théorique d’Anne Duggan rompt radicalement avec le consensus critique établi autour de l’œuvre de Demy, puisqu’elle choisit de se placer dans le double éclairage des études sur le conte (dont elle retrouve les archétypes jusque dans Lola et dans Les Parapluies de Cherbourg) et des queer studies qui, dans la continuation des gender studies, cherchent à identifier une pratique artistique fondée sur le refus des marges et des frontières. Le livre d’Anne Duggan est une contribution majeure au renouvellement du discours critique sur Demy. C’est aussi un superbe hommage à la complexité d’une œuvre cinématographique dont on ne se lasse pas d’explorer les faces les plus secrètes.
