Content:
"Even though the fantastic has been a part of our culture for as long as it exists, it has not been a prominent feature of European academic interest. But the commencing boom of fantastic themes in contemporary media production has facilitated a paradigmatic change in research, prompting a wide interest in the fantastic in all its forms. This volume addresses this growing interest by reviewing the status of European research on the fantastic from an interdisciplinary perspective and by providing a necessary outlook for the future."--
