Socialization and Politization through Fairy Tales Jack Zipes Over 170 years ago the Brothers Grimm began collecting original folk tales in Germany and stylized them into potent literary fairy tales. Since then these tales have exercised a pro- found influence on children and adults alike throughout the western world. Indeed, whatever form fairy tales in general have taken since the original publication of the Grimms' nar- ratives in 1812, the Brothers Grimm have been continually looking over our shoulders and making their presence felt. For most people this has not been so disturbing. However, during the last 15 years there has been a growing radical trend to over- throw the Grimms' benevolent rule in fairy-tale land by writers who believe that the Grimms' stories contribute to the creation of a false consciousness and reinforce an authoritarian sociali- zation process. This trend has appropriately been set by writers in the very homeland of the Grimms where literary revolutions have always been more common than real political ones.1 West German writers2 and critics have come to

  • Introduction: Fairy Tale Films, Old Tales with a New Spin
    Notes Introduction: Fairy Tale Films, Old Tales with a New Spin 1. In terms of terminology, ‘folk tales’ are the orally distributed narratives disseminated in ‘premodern’ times, and ‘fairy tales’ their literary equiva- lent, which often utilise related themes, albeit frequently altered. The term ‘ wonder tale’ was favoured by Vladimir Propp and used to encompass both forms. The general absence of any fairies has created something of a mis- nomer yet ‘fairy tale’ is so commonly used it is unlikely to be replaced. An element of magic is often involved, although not guaranteed, particularly in many cinematic treatments, as we shall see. 2. Each show explores fairy tale features from a contemporary perspective. In Grimm a modern-day detective attempts to solve crimes based on tales from the brothers Grimm (initially) while additionally exploring his mythical ancestry. Once Upon a Time follows another detective (a female bounty hunter in this case) who takes up residence in Storybrooke, a town populated with fairy tale characters and ruled by an evil Queen called Regina. The heroine seeks to reclaim her son from Regina and break the curse that prevents resi- dents realising who they truly are. Sleepy Hollow pushes the detective prem- ise to an absurd limit in resurrecting Ichabod Crane and having him work alongside a modern-day detective investigating cult activity in the area. (Its creators, Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman, made a name for themselves with Hercules – which treats mythical figures with similar irreverence – and also worked on Lost, which the series references). Beauty and the Beast is based on another cult series (Ron Koslow’s 1980s CBS series of the same name) in which a male/female duo work together to solve crimes, combining procedural fea- tures with mythical elements.

  • Queering the Grimms. Detroit, MI: Wayne State University Press, 2012
    139 REVIEWS Turner, Kay and Pauline Greenhill, eds. Transgressive Tales: Queering the Grimms. Detroit, MI: Wayne State University Press, 2012. Notes, Bibliography, Index, 358 pp. $29.95 (paper). ISBN 978-0-8143-3481-2. Transgressive Tales collects thirteen diverse studies applying queer theory to the Grimm brothers’ collections and associated topics. Originating in Kay Turner’s 1998 University of Winnipeg course in feminist and queer theory in folklore, this compilation has had a long gestation, as reflected in the formidable review of contemporary scholarship that the contributors present. There is good work throughout, though the breadth of analysis may be disconcerting to readers with tight preconceptions of what queer studies should encompass. Turner and Greenhill’s introduction gives a good accounting of how “queer” is defined for this volume’s purposes. At its broadest, queer theory discusses and problematizes “any non-normative expression of gender, including those connected with straightness” as well as questions about “marginalization, oddity, and not fitting into society generally.”(11) This scope allows for a wide spectrum of perspectives, including analyses that would have been considered feminist in other contexts (all the protagonists here are female except those in the last chapter), as well as creative interpretations of the body and desire in the Grimms’ tales and their successive reinterpretations. Transgressive Tales’ first section, “Faux Femininities,” addresses subversion in heteronormative stories through the expansion and transformation of female-gendered protagonists’ roles, bodies, and relationships. Christina Bacchilega’s chapter contrasts two similarly-titled tales, “Clever Gretel” and “Clever Else,” where the two characters, one conventionally shrewd and the other ironically dense, play trickster in reconstituting the power dynamics of their marriages.

    nglish 577.01: The Fairy Tale in Western Modernity English 577.01 08189-0 Winter 2006 MW 11:30-1:18 Bolz Hall 422 Prof. Dorothy Noyes Off. Dulles Hall 308E Off. hrs. M 9-11, T 2-4 292-8308 [email protected] This course examines the history and uses of the fairy tale in the modern Western world. It argues that the fairy tale is a principal means by which subordinate actors (such as women, children, and the poor) come to terms with dominant cultural constructions of reality, especially those relating to family life and economic success. We‟ll look first at the oral wonder tale as the European peasant‟s guide to survival in a world where the rules are both imposed from above and unreliable. Next, we‟ll see how oral tales are converted to the familiar fairy tales of literature and film, in which they are used to teach a wide variety of norms of conduct: good manners, religious resignation, economic aggression, and consumerism. Finally, we‟ll explore how attacking and reshaping the fairy tale can be a means of questioning the larger culture. In all these transformations, fairy tales explore the tensions between three responses to the promises of modern society: playing the game to win, escaping it, and changing the rules. Our examples will be drawn primarily from late seventeenth-century France, early nineteenth century Germany, and Italy and the U.S. in the twentieth century. We‟ll also read excerpts from some of the best-known commentators on the fairy tale.

  • The Fairy Tale and Reality
    English 4577.02 (Folklore II: Genres, Form, Meaning, and Use) THE FAIRY TALE AND REALITY Spring 2015 18549 Prof. Dorothy Noyes WF 11:10-12:30 [email protected] 206 Denney Hall This course examines the history and uses of the fairy tale in the modern Western world. While most of us associate the fairy tale with magic and fantasy, here we consider the many ways in which fairy tales call us back to the "real" world. We'll see the fairy tale as a space through which subordinate actors (such as women, children, and poor people) negotiate dominant cultural constructions of reality, especially those relating to family life and economic success. We’ll look first at the oral wonder tale as the peasant’s guide to survival in a world where the rules are both imposed from above and unreliable. Next, we’ll see how oral tales are reworked in print and later media for diverse ideological and commercial purposes, creating prominent models of selfhood and success along the way. In turn, we’ll see that artistic appropriations of the fairy tale provide an opportunity to denaturalize, even break cultural scripts. In all these transformations, fairy tales explore the tension between three ways individuals can respond to the promise of modern society: playing the game to win, escaping it, and changing the rules. But what happens when the rules of the game are no longer clear or certain? In a group project we'll survey what has been happening lately to the fairy tale plot in popular culture.
