This book explores the interplay of childhood and the fairy tale as
they both changed character in accordance with the historical
transformations of the mid-nineteenth century. While the fairy tale
was instrumental in the social construction of childhood, the
latter for its part played an equally crucial role in altering the
narrative structure of the fairy tale. So viewed, the story of
childhood is closely intertwined with the fairy tale, and both with
modernity as it changed its focus with the changing direction of
the civilizing process. The liberating potential of modernity
emerges when a broad spectrum of the marginalized, including
children, begin to assert themselves and gain recognition as
independent subjects of historical inquiry.
