For many, the middle ages depicted in Walt Disney movies have come
to figure as the middle ages, forming the earliest visions of the
medieval past for much of the contemporary Western (and
increasingly Eastern) imagination. The essayists of The Disney
Middle Ages explore Disney's mediation and re-creation of a
fairy-tale and fantasy past, not to lament its exploitation of the
middle ages for corporate ends, but to examine how and why these
medieval visions prove so readily adaptable to themed
entertainments many centuries after their creation. What results is
a scrupulous and comprehensive examination of the intersection
between the products of the Disney Corporation and popular
culture's fascination with the middle ages.
