{"product_id":"lost-princess-1","title":"Lost Princess","description":"People often associate fairy tales with Disney films, and with the male authors from whom Disney often drew inspiration – notably Charles Perrault, the Brothers Grimm and Hans Christian Andersen. In these portrayals the princess is a passive, compliant figure. By contrast, \u003ci\u003eThe Lost Princess\u003c\/i\u003e shows that classic fairy tales such as ‘Cinderella’, ‘Rapunzel’ and ‘Beauty and the Beast’ have a much richer, more complex history than Disney’s saccharine depictions. Anne E. Duggan recovers the voices of women writers such as Marie-Catherine d’Aulnoy, Marie-Jeanne L’Héritier and Charlotte-Rose de La Force, who penned popular tales about ogre-killing, pregnant, cross-dressing, dynamic heroines who saved the day. This new history will appeal to anyone who wants to know more about the lost, plucky heroines of historic fairy tales.","brand":"Reaktion Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54229141651800,"sku":"9781789147698","price":22.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781789147698_689efc8e-3d82-4b22-87d9-a4d3c2c35c5c.jpg?v=1778529622","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/lost-princess-1","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
