Abstract

The “Tintentrilogie” by Cornelia Funke is one of the most well-known works of German fantasy literature. It is meant for children and teenagers, but the first part differs from its sequels as this article demonstrates. The first book of the trilogy strictly follows the canons of children’s literature while the second and the third ones incorporate significant elements of epic fantasy. Such blending of genres allows to expand the reading audience and to treat more seriously the subjects brought up in the text.
