"Every culture in the world has a version of the story of Cinderella. This volume studies how the famous folk tale character is the societal anchor that navigates cultures and associations with common values, traits and ethics. The multiple Cinderella adaptations in Spain echoes not only Spanish traditions, history and Zeitgeist, but reflects the global aspect of a tale from a deeper and philosophical level. What do Gay Cinderella, Suicidal Cinderella, Censored Cinderella, Masked Cinderella, Porn Cinderella and other adaptations have in common? This critical examination of Cinderella as a socio-ethical text is the first study of the thousands publications on the most popular fairy tale character of all times, that analyzes the story from a literary, ethnographic and ethical perspective."
