520 8 |a In 'Melusine's footprint: Tracing the legacy of a medieval myth', editors Misty Urban, Deva Kemmis, and Melissa Ridley Elmes offer an invigorating international and interdisciplinary examination of the legendary fairy Melusine. Along with fresh insights into the popular French and German traditions, these essays investigate Melusine?s English, Dutch, Spanish, and Chinese counterparts and explore her roots in philosophy, folklore, and classical myth.0Combining approaches from art history, history, alchemy, literature, culture, and medievalism, applying rigorous critical lenses ranging from feminism and comparative literature to film and monster studies, this volume brings Melusine scholarship into the twenty-first century with nineteen lively and evocative essays that reassess this powerful figure?s multiple meanings and illuminate her dynamic resonances across cultures and time.
