Disney and the dialectic of desirefantasy as social practice /[electronic resource] :by Joseph Zornado. - Cham :Springer International Publishing :2017. - ix, 260 p. :ill., digital ;24 cm.

1. Introduction: What is Fantasy? -- 2. Chapter Two: Capital, Crisis and the Rise of Disney Fantasy -- 3. Chapter Three: Walt Disney, Snow White, and Trauma of the Real -- 4. Chapter Four: Disney Fantasy as the Discourse of the Other -- 5. Chapter Five: Disneyland and the Perversity of Disney Fantasy -- 6. Chapter Six: Disney, Pixar, and Neoliberal Nostalgia -- 7. Chapter Seven: Conclusion: The Empire Expands: Star Wars as Disney Fantasy.

This book analyzes Walt Disney's impact on entertainment, new media, and consumer culture in terms of a materialist, psychoanalytic approach to fantasy. The study opens with a taxonomy of narrative fantasy along with a discussion of fantasy as a key concept within psychoanalytic discourse. Zornado reads Disney's full-length animated features of the "golden era" as symbolic responses to cultural and personal catastrophe, and presents Disneyland as a monument to Disney fantasy and one man's singular, perverse desire. What follows after is a discussion of the "second golden age" of Disney and the rise of Pixar Animation as neoliberal nostalgia in crisis. The study ends with a reading of George Lucas as latter-day Disney and Star Wars as Disney fantasy. This study should appeal to film and media studies college undergraduates, graduates students and scholars interested in Disney.
