A clear influence on more recent writers such as J.K. Rowling, her humorous and exciting stories of wizards' academies, dragons, and griffins - many published for children but read by all ages - are also complexly structured and thought provoking critiques of the fantasy tradition. This book is the first sustained study of Jones's work. Here, renowned science fiction critic and historian Farah Mendlesohn provides a comprehensive overview of Jones's oeuvre and examines her important critiques of the fantastic tradition's ideas about childhood and adolescence. 520 8 This is essential reading for Jones's many admirers and a long overdue critical companion for students and scholars of children's literature."--Jacket. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 600 10 Jones, Diana Wynne|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n83160096|xCriticism and interpretation.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99005576 600 17 Jones, Diana Wynne.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 116883 650 0 Children's stories, English|xHistory and criticism.|0https ://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2008100442 650 0 Fantasy fiction, English|xHistory and criticism.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2008103560 650 7 Criticism and interpretation.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1198648 650 7 Children's stories, English.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/856704 650 7 Fantasy fiction, English.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/920756 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 Criticism, interpretation, etc.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1411635 776 08 |iPrint version:|aMendlesohn, Farah.|tDiana Wynne Jones |z0415970237|w(DLC) 2005003668|w(OCoLC)57669501 830 0 Children's literature and culture ;|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/n2001031051|v36. 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=641014|zOnline eBook.
