Curso 2017-2018The fairy tale genre is a discourse with a strong presence of male chauvinistic and almos! misogynist ideas. In the context of the Second Wave Feminism, Angela Carter reviews these conventions from a feminist perspectiva , reinventing the grounds of a monolithic and apparently unalterable structure. The Bloody Chamber and Other Stories challenges the presumed patriarchal mechanisms and gender politics. Carter's use of the fairy tale offers a feminist revision of the genre without altering its main features. The purpose of this TFG is to show Carter's success in achieving a feminist interpretation of traditional fairy tales, a genre until recently regarded by the critics exclusively at the service of patriarchal ideologyengAtribución-NoComercial-CompartirIgual 4.0 Internacionalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/Angela CarterFairy taleSexism in literatureCuentos de hadasSexismo en la literaturaThe bloody chamber and other storiesLa cámara sangrienta y otros cuentosMaterias::Investigación::62 Ciencias de las artes y las letras::6202 Teoría, análisis y crítica literarias“Sexuality is power”, or how the marquis became marchionessbachelor thesisopen access
