Milne, Alfred Noyes), interpret the nationalist and colonial implications of fairy tale poems written in response to canonical British fairy tales (Jackie Kay, John Agard), and reinterpret key terms like "fairy tale" and "myth" in parallel poetic movements like mythopoesis (T.S. Eliot, Ezra Pound). Second, it argues that the development of nineteenth- and twentieth-century literary theory is heavily indebted to theorizations of fairy tales and that recognizing the politicized use of fairy tales in theory can both contextualize and illuminate the political implications of apparently innocuous and apolitical fairy tale poems. cache/q811kh06t3p.txt txt/q811kh06t3p.txt
