From Mouse to Mermaid, an interdisciplinary collection of
original essays, is the first comprehensive, critical treatment of
Disney cinema. Addressing children s classics as well as the Disney
affiliates more recent attempts to capture adult audiences, the
contributors respond to the Disney film legacy from feminist,
marxist, poststructuralist, and cultural studies perspectives. The
volume contemplates Disney s duality as an American icon and as an
industry of cultural production, created in and through fifty years
of filmmaking. The contributors treat a range of topics at issue in
contemporary cultural studies: the performance of gender, race, and
class; the engendered images of science, nature, technology,
family, and business. The compilation of voices in From Mouse to
Mermaid creates a persuasive cultural critique of Disney s
ideology.
The contributors are Bryan Attebery, Elizabeth Bell, Claudia
Card, Chris Cuomo, Ramona Fernandez, Henry A. Giroux, Robert Haas,
Lynda Haas, Susan Jeffords, N. Soyini Madison, Susan Miller,
Patrick Murphy, David Payne, Greg Rode, Laura Sells, and Jack
Zipes."
