Autor
Julia Kunz
This work analyses P. L. Travers' Mary Poppins material in terms of its intertextuality and psychological factors. It identifies elements of myth and fairy tale in the collection, and contrasts the text with classics of children's literature by Carroll, Barrie, MacDonald and Nesbit. It also explores a psychoanalytical reading of Mary Poppins.
