Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Reality, Magic, and Other Lies: FairyTale Film Truths explores connections and discontinuities between lies and truths in fairytale films to directly address the current politics of fairy tale and reality. Since the Enlightenment, notions of magic and wonder have been relegated to the realm of the fanciful, with science and reality understood as objective and true. But the skepticism associated with postmodern thought and critiques from diverse perspectivesincluding but not limited to antiracist, decolonial, disability, and feminist theorizingrenders this binary distinction questionable. Further, the precise content of magic and science has shifted through history and across location. Pauline Greenhill offers the idea that fairy tales, particularly through the medium of film, often address those distinctions by making magic real and reality magical.Reality, Magic, and Other Lies consists of an introduction, two sections, and a conclusion, with the first section, 'Studio, Director, and Writer Oeuvres,' addressing how fairytale films engage with and challenge scientific or factual approaches to truth and reality, drawing on films from the stopmotion animation company LAIKA, the independent filmmaker Tarsem, and the storyteller and writer Fred Pellerin. The second section, 'Themes and Issues from Three Fairy Tales,' shows fairytale film magic exploring reallife issues and experiences using the stories of 'Hansel and Gretel,' 'The Juniper Tree,' and 'Cinderella.' The concluding section, 'Moving Forward?' suggests that the key to facing the reality of contemporary issues is to invest in fairy tales as a guide, rather than a means of escape, by gathering your community and never forgetting to believe.Reality, Magic, and Other Lieswhich will be of interest to film and fairytale scholars and studentsconsiders the ways in which fairy tales in their mediated forms deconstruct the world and offer alternative views for peaceful, appropriate, just, and intersectionally multifaceted encounters with humans, nonhuman animals, and the rest of the environment.
