The book reveals the historical change in the function of the generic form of the fairy tale: at the beginning of the twentieth century, fairy tales are no longer written or read for their stimulus to the imagination or their nostalgia towards past times, but with a political end in view: to define a nation’s identity meant to justify and support claims to a unitary state (Romania) or an independent state (Ireland). As such, this book investigates the interweave of poetics and politics at the time of the rise of modernist nationalism at the margins of Europe.
Ana-Maria Baciu received her Master of Arts in the Theory and Practice of Translation from the Philology Department of Lucian Blaga University of Sibiu, Romania, and her PhD from “1 Decembrie 1918” University, Alba Iulia, Romania. She is the author of a number of articles published in Romania and abroad on the topics of literature and teaching English as a second language.
