Reviews
Pask's ability to tell a literary-historical story over a series of centuries is both notable and admirable in our increasingly period-bound field., Pask is an astute reader of Shakespeare, and his book is an excellent resource for an audience of undergraduates to professional scholars., A valuable and illuminating book that successfully crosses period boundaries and... holds within a single frame materials almost always dispersed in literary studies., By placing Tolkien in such elevated company, the book succeeds in suggesting the cultural and historical forces that continue to guide us as we file into the cinema to see the latest instalment of The Hobbit ., The Fairy Way of Writing : Shakespeare to Tolkien is a bold and engaging book, opening up much fertile ground for future work. I highly recommend a close reading of it., "" The Fairy Way of Writing : Shakespeare to Tolkien is a bold and engaging book, opening up much fertile ground for future work. I highly recommend a close reading of it."", An engaging book that raises excellent questions about the origins and significance of modern fantasy fiction. It reflects Pask's background as a Renaissance scholar and his skill in sketching a larger argument about the development of fantasy fiction., The Fairy Way of Writing : Shakespeare to Tolkien is a bold and engaging book, opening up much fertile ground for future work. I highly recommend a close reading of it., Pask is an astute reader of Shakespeare, and his book is an excellent resource for an audience of undergraduates to professional scholars.

Synopsis
In The Fairy Way of Writing, Kevin Pask seeks to explain the origins and popularity of enchantment in Shakespeares plays. Writers John Dryden and Joseph Addison originated the phrase the 'fairy way of writing' to define the concept of an English creative imagination founded on a synthesis of high literary culture and the popular culture of tales and superstitions. Beginning with Chaucer, Johnson, Dryden, and Milton, Pask argues that the fairy way of writing not only sets the stage for the fairy tale, the Gothic novel, and childrens literature, but also informs genres beyond the English canon, including French fairy tales, painting, and twentieth-century fantasy fiction. In addition to English writers and visual artists such as Pope, Blake, and Keats who were directly engaged with Shakespearean fantasy, Pask also examines fairy tales, letters, and paintings by the French writers Madame d'Aulnoy, Charles Perrault, Madame de Svign, and the Swiss-born artist Johann Heinrich Fssli (Fuseli). The Fairy Way of Writing alters the traditional sense of English literary history and of Shakespeares singular place in it, insisting on the importance of often-overlooked literary and visual works. It recovers a distinctive aspect of English literary culture from across the entire early modern period and beyond, one which has been studied in the context of individual periods and writers but has not been considered within a broad overview informed by the history of European nationalism and the creation of the modern literary system., A history of popular superstitions, tales, and magic in British literature.
