“Hope, in fairy tales, is sharper than teeth.” (Terri Windling) Today I’ve been doing a bit of research on fairy tales as I’ve written another chapter - documenting the launch from the perspective of The Little Princess.

I love to answer questions on Quora. What factors contributed to the rise in popularity of fantasy as a genre in literature and film? I believe that postmodern literature has reached its limits, necessitating the creation of a new path. Maybe postmodern literature failed to satisfy the humane quest for fantasy. Not everyone enjoys the sci-fi genre. Also, Umberto Eco made a start with The Book of Legendary Lands. “Legendary lands and places are of various kinds and have only one characteristic in common: whether they depend on ancient legends whose origins are lost in the mists of time or whether they are an effect of a modern invention, they have created flows of belief.” “Often the object of a desire, when desire is transformed into hope, becomes more real than reality itself. Out of a hope in a possible future, many people are prepared to make enormous sacrifices, and maybe even die, led on by prophets, visionaries, charismatic preachers, and spellbinders who fire the minds of their followers with the vision of a future heaven on Earth (or elsewhere).” Art – The Road to Samarkand by Thomas Thiermeyer. #Quora #quoraquestions #quoraanswers #quoramarketing https://lnkd.in/dEP6NCvF
