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 \u0026amp;#x27;Cinderella\u0026amp;#x27;, \u0026amp;#x27;Rapunzel\u0026amp;#x27; and \u0026amp;#x27;Beauty and the Beast\u0026amp;#x27; have a much richer, more complex history than Disney\u0026amp;#x27;s saccharine depictions. Anne E. Duggan recovers the voices of women writers such as Marie-Catherine d\u0026amp;#x27;Aulnoy, Marie-Jeanne L\u0026amp;#x27;Heritier 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.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ships in 10 to 15 days","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46857099772062,"sku":"ADS-9781789147698","price":37.78,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0400\/9043\/5742\/files\/9781789147698.jpg?v=1779154251","url":"https:\/\/classicbargains.com.au\/products\/9781789147698","provider":"Classic Bargains Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
