If you want a few English-speaking reference works, about the feminist reading/interpretation/reception of fairytales, I found three works in a bibliography for an article I read.
One is a reflection of the 80s feminism when it comes to fairy tales: Kiss Sleeping Beauty Good-bye. Breaking the spell of feminine myths and models, by Madonna Kolbenschlag (1988).
Tumblr media
A work which you can compare and contrast with a much more recent one, reflecting feminist views from the dawn of the 21st century: 2004's Fairy Tales and Feminism, new approaches, a collective work.
Tumblr media
And finally another work from the 80s, that does contain some feminist articles (such as Kay F. Stone's "Feminist approaches to the interpretation of fairy tales"), but isn't all about feminism: Ruth B. Bottigheimer's 1986 Fairy tales and society: illusion, allusion, and paradigm.

[ID: a rectangular flag with 4 equally-sized horizontal stripes with a thinner stripe through the middle. from top to bottom, the stripes are greenish off-black, off-white, swamp green, off-white, and greenish off-black. in the middle of the flag is the vesility symbol. the base shape is a 4-pointed start with smaller points between each star point. the symbol outline is almost-black, and the symbol fill is swamp green. End ID]
Fearenvesi / Fearenvesil
[PT: Fearenvesi / Fearenvesil. end PT]
A vesility for when the fear entities from The Magnus Archives affect most or all of one's identity. This can refer to the concept of fear entities, can refer to several unspecified entities, can refer to fan entities, or any other way that one may feel it fits.
a revenge for @en8y!!! which makes it 8 points for Team Moon i think, because +5 for the base term, +1 for the revenge chain, and +2 for a non-gender term! enjoy, Tech!
@kiruliom and tagging @noxwithoutstars cause TMA =3 (cat face emoticon)

‘All the Knowledge in the World’ Review: The Encyclopedia Eternal
From Denis Diderot to Wikipedia, surveying our attempt to collect the sum of human wisdom in a single place.
Tumblr media
by Joseph Epstein
In a YouTube video called “Teens React to Encyclopedias,” one kid comes up with the definition of encyclopedia as “the internet in books”; another says that “it was Google way back in the day. . . it was the worst of times.” Had they known more, these kids might have added that the internet has killed the encyclopedia, turning it into a historical but no longer active form, like verse drama or epic poetry.
The life and death of the encyclopedia is recounted in Simon Garfield’s excellent new book. Mr. Garfield, an Englishman in his early 60s, is lucid, witty, learned and clearly a bibliomaniac, who has also written books on, among other subjects, cartography and typography. In “All the Knowledge in the World,” he has produced a lively threnody to the encyclopedic impulse, or the powerful desire to grasp and encapsulate everything that is known within a single book or set of books.
A lively threnody may seem an oxymoron, but Mr. Garfield both loves encyclopedias and bewails their demise. “This book is as much about the value of considered learning as it is about encyclopedias themselves,” he writes in his introduction. In his closing page, he adds: “This book has not been a history of knowledge, but it has tracked how one aspect of our knowledge has been communicated, circumscribed, and passed on.” That aspect is the printed encyclopedia, R.I.P.
“All the Knowledge in the World” provides a survey of the encyclopedic impulse from its beginning with Pliny the Elder’s “Naturalis Historia,” a work not organized alphabetically and without that hallmark of encyclopedias, cross-references. As Mr. Garfield has it, “in one sense it was the Great Library of Alexandria arrayed along a single shelf.”

In due course, with the aid of only a few technical staff, they forged the scientific collaboration that in the postwar era made them preeminent authorities in blood-group genetics and their Blood Groups in Man in its successive editions the standard reference on the subject.

In Princess Aster's world, bunnybirds live in contented isolation, keeping themselves detached from the world in order to practice magic. Nothing is ever wrong, and no one is ever angry...even as Aster's people seem to be slowly disappearing. When her father is next to vanish, Aster resolves to find and rescue the missing bunnybirds—even if it means journeying over the rim of the world itself!
My middle grade graphic novel is officially available for preorder! Bunnybirds is a story about trauma, friendship, and my experience with autistic masking. It was drawn entirely with Prismacolor colored pencils and Pandafly markers, with Photoshop applied for color enhancement and text.
Check it out maybe! :D
That last panel with Carlin (the brown bunnybird) facing the corner was directly inspired by this wonderful TMA comic by @nubs-mbee!
