The Djinn in the Nightingale's Eye by Antonia Byatt focuses on a very original theme that renews the fantastic tale in a problematic and postmodern way. The fairy tales that this analysis will investigate are particularly emblematic of Byatt's rereading of the form, especially considering the metaphorical aims with which the tales were written. Fundamentally, these appear to be a sort of poetical manifesto on the concept of the artistic act and its relationship with previous traditions

Abstract
The Djinn in the Nightingale's Eye by Antonia Byatt focuses on a very original theme that renews the fantastic tale in a problematic and postmodern way. The fairy tales that this analysis will investigate are particularly emblematic of Byatt's rereading of the form, especially considering the metaphorical aims with which the tales were written. Fundamentally, these appear to be a sort of poetical manifesto on the concept of the artistic act and its relationship with previous traditions
