In these portrayals, the princess is a passive, compliant figure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBy contrast, \u003ci\u003eThe Lost Princess\u003c\/i\u003e shows that classic fairy tales such as 'Cinderella', 'Rapunzel', and 'Beauty and the Beast' have a much richer, more complex history than Disney's saccharine depictions. Anne E. Duggan recovers the voices of women writers such as Marie-Catherine d'Aulnoy, Marie-Jeanne L'Heritier, and Charlotte-Rose de La Force, who penned popular tales about ogre-killing, pregnant, cross-dressing, dynamic heroines who saved the day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis new history will appeal to anyone who wants to know more about the lost, plucky heroines of historic fairy tales.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"NewSouth Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47363126395116,"sku":"9781789147698","price":42.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/28006023482824.jpg?v=1772915567","url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/products\/the-lost-princess-by-anne-duggan-9781789147698","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
