Subject: RE: Folklore: Stories of mermaids etc & mortal men From: FreddyHeadey Date: 25 May 23 - 01:04 PM Mermaids, Caribbean tales and copyright Free Thinking - BBC radio 3 May 2023 Disney's The Little Mermaid and a musical adaptation of a Caribbean version of the story kick off our conversation as Shahidha Bari is joined by director Ola Ince, historian and Sarah Peverley, who is writing a cultural history of mermaids. "Mermaid hunter" Sacha Coward considers mermaids as queer icons, and Claudy Op den Kamp talks us through Disney copyright history. https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m001lzh |

Songs With Mermaids In is a previous Mudcat thread. |
