A Fairy-Tale Apocalypse: Humanity, Nature, and Disease in Stand Still. Stay Silent

Abstract:In Stand Still. Stay Silent, Finnish webcomic artist Minna Sundberg uses Nordic mythology in a postapocalyptic setting to illustrate the impact of humanity on the natural environment. Eerily relevant today, through skillful use of Nordic mythology and settings Sundberg's tale of struggling humanity in a postpandemic world makes the argument for recognizing and addressing human-caused ecological destruction. This article describes how the interplay of fairy-tale tropes and futuristic settings allows for an effective warning against contemporary human abuses. Through the allegory of a pandemic that disregards divisions between species and the integration of folklore, a powerful argument for the dangers of anthropocentric ecological activity emerges.

期刊介绍： Marvels & Tales (ISSN: 1521-4281) was founded in 1987 by Jacques Barchilon at the University of Colorado, Boulder. Originally known as Merveilles & contes, the journal expressed its role as an international forum for folktale and fairy-tale scholarship through its various aliases: Wunder & Märchen, Maravillas & Cuentos, Meraviglie & Racconti, and Marvels & Tales. In 1997, the journal moved to Wayne State University Press and took the definitive title Marvels & Tales: Journal of Fairy-Tale Studies. From the start, Marvels & Tales has served as a central forum for the multidisciplinary study of fairy tales. In its pages, contributors from around the globe have published studies, texts, and translations of fairy-tales from Europe, North America, Asia, and Africa. The Editorial Policy of Marvels & Tales encourages scholarship that introduces new areas of fairy-tale scholarship, as well as research that considers the traditional fairy-tale canon from new perspectives. The journal''s special issues have been particularly popular and have focused on topics such as "Beauty and the Beast," "The Romantic Tale," "Charles Perrault," "Marriage Tests and Marriage Quest in African Oral Literature," "The Italian Tale," and "Angela Carter and the Literary Märchen." Marvels & Tales is published every April and October by Wayne State University Press.
