Book Description:
|
This book examines contemporary "Cinderella" fairy tale adaptations to argue that the traditionally passive princess has been updated for the 21st century. Using wokeness as a theoretical lens, it analyzes the "Cinderella" story's potentiality as a social gauge for how we construe gender, sex, agency, and power.
