      title = {Cinderella across cultures : new directions and  interdisciplinary perspectives /},
      abstract = {"This book examplifies the interdisciplinary and  transnational discourse of contemporary fairy-tale studies  that seeks to foreground a fairy-tale text's situatedness  as well as to historicize its intertextuality. Considering  Cinderella as a soical text means to approach its  refashioning across languages, media, and cultures, as seen  in the contributions that focus on translation and  adaptation; to focus on how fairy-tale discourses inform  our understanding of various societies and cultures, with  essays on how producing and interpreting Cinderella texts  are intertwined with assumptions about family, sexuality,  gender, childhood, and nation; and to treat material  objects in fairy tales, like glass, and fairy-tale  ephemera, like posters, as cultural texts. The essays  collectively provide new insights into contextualizing,  retelling, and reimag(in)ing Cinderella, and, though they  wisely do not aim for a global survye, they do engage  cultural traditions that, while remaining rooted in a  Euro-American context, decenter the  Basile-Perrault-Grimms-Disney geneaology. In doing so, the  editors and contributors of this volume deploy a keen  awareness of the cultural work that translation, as process  and trope, does in the production of and responses to  Cinderella texts, thus significantly advancing a culture of  translation in fairy-tale studies."},
