The postmodern fairytalefolkloric intertexts in contemporary fiction /[electronic resource] :Postmodern fairy taleKevin Paul Smith. - Basingstoke [England] ;Palgrave Macmillan,2007. - vi, 198 p.

Includes bibliographical references (p. 182-190) and index.

The Eight Elements of Intertextual use of Fairy Tales -- Architextual/ Chronotopic Intertextuality and Magic Realism in Kate Atkinson's Human Croquet -- Metafictive Intertextuality: Defining the 'Storyteller' Chronotope -- Battling the Nightmare of Myth, Terry Pratchett's Fairy Tale Inversions.

Why is Shrek one of the greatest selling DVDs of all time? Why do shampoo advertisements basethemselves on Sleeping Beauty? Why is it thatin this age where there are stories surrounding us in every media imaginable, that the same simple stories keep being told? This study attempts to explainwhy fairy tales keep popping up in the most unexpected places. It also examines the way that telling an autobiography as a fairytale begins to affect the content of the story. Magical meaning is discovered in the strange turns of fate, and actual events take on the flavour of 'magic realism'. From Salman Rushdie, and Angela Carter to KateAtkinson and Terry Pratchett, this book examines the different ways that fairy tales are used in postmodern fiction and why the most popular stories begin 'once upon a time'.
