Moving into the mid-twenty-first century, wonder--as a potentially critical sociocultural, ecological, and individual stance--will play a significant role in reconceptualizing the present to imagine a different and better world. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e These essays examine fairy tales and other traditional forms of the fantastic and the real to offer alternative expressions of justice relevant to gender, sex, sexuality, environment, Indigeneity, class, ability, race, decolonizing, and human and nonhuman relations. By analyzing fairy tales and wonder texts from various media through an intersectional feminist lens, Pauline Greenhill and Jennifer Orme consider how wonder genres and forms blend with diverse conceptions of seeking and enacting justice. International collaborators--both established and emerging scholars who self-identify with different subjectivities, locations, and generations and come from an impressive range of inter\/disciplines--engage with contemporary and historical texts from various languages and cultural contexts, including interventions, counterparts, and comparisons to the fairy tale. \u003ci\u003eJust Wonder\u003c\/i\u003e offers a critical look at how creative wondering can expand the ability to resist modes of oppression while fostering equity, as well as encourage curiosity and imagination. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e In a world that can be overwhelming and precarious, this book presents scholarly, artistic, personal, and collective-action interventions to identify and respond to injustice while centering wonder and, thus, imagination, questioning, and hope. \u003ci\u003eJust Wonder \u003c\/i\u003ewill appeal to fairy-tale scholars; folklorists; students and scholars of film, media studies, and cultural studies; as well as a general audience. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Pauline Greenhill\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1646425847\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781646425846\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Utah State University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/15\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 294\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.90lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.80d","brand":"Pauline Greenhill","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45898358063359,"sku":"9781646425846","price":30.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_421377a0-314e-42aa-9794-cccb3f096e32.jpg?v=1721376129","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/just-wonder-pauline-greenhill-9781646425846","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
