List of Illustrations -- Acknowledgements -- Serializing Scheherazade: An Alternative Historyof the Fairy Tale -- Myths of Origin: Folktale Scholarship and Fictional Invention in Magazines forChildren -- Science and Superstition, Realism and Romance: Fairy Tale and Fantasy in the Adult Shilling Monthly -- 'I wonder were the fairies Socialists?': The Politics of the Fairy Tale in the 1890sLabour Press -- 'All art is once surface and symbol': Fairy Tales and the Fin-de-Sèicle Little Magazines -- Conclusion: Myth in the Marketplace -- Notes -- Bibliography --Index.

Victorian writers often claimed that the press was killing the fairytale. In fact, it ensuredthe genre's popularity, bringing literary tales and folklore to the first mass readerships. Exploring penny weeklies, adult and children's monthlies, little magazines and the labour press, this innovative study is the first to combine media and fairy tale history. Bringing reading communities back into focus, Sumpter explores ingenious political uses of the fairy tale: in debates over socialism, evolution and race, and in the context of women's rights, decadence andgay culture. The book offers new insights into the popularisation of folklore and comparative science, and also recovers neglectedvisual material. From the fantasies of Kingsley, MacDonald and J. H. Ewing to thewritings of Keir Hardie, Laurence Housman and Yeats, Sumpter reveals that the fairy tale was intimately shaped by thepress, and that both were at the heart of nineteenth-century culture.
