520			_aHurray for this volume!! Breaking away from the familiar ground of Fantastical Anglophone texts read by English-language scholars, the essays here show the much needed glocality of contemporary scholarship. The first half of the essays probe the generic, methodological, and theoretical assumptions of fantasy, with each differing in approach but all coming together to build a dynamic yet operable paradigm. The second half, defined geographically, sweeps the globe to add voices, perspectives, and texts that have long gone largely unnoticed. The cumulative effect is a refreshing and exciting collection that truly magnifies the reach Fantasy Studies.^Keren Omry, University of Haifa This handbook is the first-of-its-kind comprehensive overview of fantasy outside the Anglo-American hegemony.^While most academic studies of fantasy follow the well-trodden path of focusing on Tolkien, Rowling, and others, our collection spotlights rich and unique fantasy literatures in India, Australia, Italy, Greece, Poland, Russia, China, and many other areas of Europe, Asia, and the global South. The first part focuses on the theoretical aspects of fantasy, broadening and modifying existing definitions to accommodate the global reach of the genre. The second part contains essays illuminating specific cultures, countries, and religious or ethnic traditions.^From Aboriginal myths to (self)-representation of Tibet, from the appropriation of the Polish Witcher by the American pop culture to modern Greek fantasy that does not rely on stories of Olympian deities, and from Israeli vampires to Talmudic sages, this collection is an indispensable reading for anyone interested in fantasy fiction and global literature.^Elana Gomel is Associate Professor at the Department of English and American Studies at Tel-Aviv University. She is the author of five academic books and numerous articles on subjects such as narrative theory, posthumanism, science fiction, and Victorian culture. She is also an award-winning fiction writer. Danielle Gurevitch is cultural ethnologist and the director of the Multidisciplinary Studies at the Humanities at Bar-Ilan University. She is the author of several articles, editor of three academic books, and author of two.^Speculative fiction, medieval literature, comparative literature, and gender studies are among her fields of expertise. Additionally, she is the chair of the facultys Dangoor Centre for cultural diplomacy. .
