Description du livre Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. Myth is oral, collective, sacred, and timeless. Fantasy is a modern literary mode and a popular entertainment. Yet the two have always been inextricably intertwined. Stories about Stories examines fantasy as an arena in which different ways of understanding myth compete and new relationships with myth are worked out. The book offers a comprehensive history of the modern fantastic as well as an argument about its nature and importance. Specific chapterscover the origins of fantasy in the Romantic search for localized myths, fantasy versions of the Modernist turn toward the primitive, the post-Tolkienian exploration of world mythologies, post-colonial reactions tothe exploitation of indigenous sacred narratives by Western writers, fantasies based in Christian belief alongside fundamentalist attempts to stamp out the form, and the emergence of ever-more sophisticated structures such as metafiction through which to explore mythic constructions of reality. Drawing on literary history and folklore, Stories about Stories offers an introduction to the fantasy genre's popularity and cultural importance. Reading works by figures such as J. R. R. Tolkien, C. S. Lewis, Ursula K. Le Guin, Alan Garner, Amitav Ghosh, and many others, Attebery explores both the familiar and the forgotten to produce the first comprehensive look at fantasy's uses of myth.
