Event: ‘Tales for Fairies: Tracing Queer Fairy‑Tale Retellings’

‘Tales for Fairies: Tracing Queer Fairy‑Tale Retellings’
Alba Morollón Díaz-Faes
Tuesday 17 March, 5:30-6:30 p.m. UTC, online (Teams).

Explore the evolution of queer reinterpretations of the fairy tale across three transformative decades: the first wave of fairy-tale publications for a predominantly gay male readership in the 1990s; a second wave in the 2000s that navigated queer politics through nuanced tales of monstrosity and heroism; and a third wave in the 2010s of online queer communities who challenged and reimagined Disney’s fairy tales.

Free and open to all. E-mail h.robbins@chi.ac.uk for Teams link.
