"" (Is a World of Seeming)Bibliography; Index. 520 "The books are true while reality is lying ..." Championing the popular Fantasy genre on the same terms as its readers, Rayment casts a critical eye over the substance and methods of political critique in the Fantasy novels of Terry Pratchett, Philip Pullman and China Miéville. Ranging across subjects as diverse as exquisite fundamentalism and revolutionary trains, encountering pervert-priests, dwarf hermaphrodites and sex-scarred lovers and pondering the homicidal tendencies of fairy tales and opera, Fantasy, Politics, Postmodernity develops a theoretically wide-ranging and illuminating account. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 600 10 Pratchett, Terry|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n81047837|xCriticism and interpretation.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99005576 600 10 Pullman, Philip,|d1946-|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ names/n79026451|xCriticism and interpretation.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99005576 600 10 Miéville, China|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ nb98062876|xCriticism and interpretation.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99005576 600 17 Pratchett, Terry.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 71956 600 17 Pullman, Philip,|d1946-|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/32332 600 17 Miéville, China.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1934705 648 7 21st century|2fast 650 0 Fantasy fiction, English|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85047125|xPolitical aspects.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh00005651 650 0 Fantasy fiction, English|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85047125|y21st century|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2002012478|xHistory and criticism. |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99001187 650 0 Politics and literature.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85104470 650 7 Criticism and interpretation.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1198648 650 7 Fantasy fiction, English.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/920756 650 7 Politics and literature.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/1069960 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 Fantasy fiction, English.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/1750171 776 08 |iPrint version:|aRayment, Andrew.|tFantasy|z9789042038585 |w(OCoLC)882073044 830 0 Postmodern studies ;|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names /n90675670|v52. 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=786460|zOnline eBook.
