I am currently a sophomore majoring in History with minors in Arabic, Middle Eastern Studies and Religious Studies. Although I am personally most interested in the Middle East, I have a love for oral tradition that carried stories to become famous over centuries, and because of this the Brothers Grimm anthology is extremely interesting to me. In my free time, you can find me reading sci-fi, forfeiting sleep to watch bad Netflix shows, and talking too much about world news. Although I had a brief one year experience with Model Congress in high school, I started doing Model UN in my freshman year when I joined Seton Hall’s competitive Model UN team. I co-chaired in SHUMUN XX last year for the Napoleon’s 100 Days Crisis Committee. That was a blast and I cannot wait to experience chairing a fantasy committee this year! With a wide range of local legends and fables, we hope to see the sort of creativity that originally inspired these stories. During the conference I hope to see you excel in your debate and writing skills! I cannot wait to see you all. If you have any questions or concerns about SHUMUN XXI or the Brothers Grimm Crisis Committee, please feel free to email! Best Wishes, John Ruela Brothers Grimm Crisis Committee Chair SHUMUN XXI [email protected] 2 The Brothers Grimm Letter from the Crisis Director: Dear Delegates, Welcome to SHUMUN XXI!

  • NATIONALISTIC ASPECTS of the GRIMM BROTHERS' FAIRY TALES* Department Oj History, College of the City of New York
    The Journal of Social Psychology, 1951, 33, 209-223. NATIONALISTIC ASPECTS OF THE GRIMM BROTHERS' FAIRY TALES* Department oj History, College of the City of New York LOUIS L. SNYDER A. INTRODUCTION "Not a narrow nationalism but the philosophic romanticism of Schelling, Gories, Cruezer and Kanne, the view that the mythos glimpsed more of truth than reason, impelled the brothers Grimm to make such great collec- tions of folk poetry as the Kinder- und Hausmdrchen" (30, p 173). And again: "The brothers Grimm had no thought of breeding an overweening nationalism, but rather of paving the way for a profounder comprehension of German character, a national self-knowledge" (30, p. 174). These two conclusions, reached in 1937 by Rudolf Stadelmann, then of the University of Freiburg i. Br., tend to relieve the famed German philologists, founders of scientific Germanistics, of the onus of "narrow" and "overweening" na- tionalism that has caused an enormous amount of trouble in recent years. Since nationalism has become for the European of our age "the most im- portant thing in the world, more important than civilization, humanity, de- cency, kindness, pity, more important than life itself" (Sir Norman Angell), and since nationalism, far from weakening, is growing even more stronger as nations everywhere grow more national in thought and in deed, an examination of nationalistic aspects of the work of the two gifted brothers would seem to be in order. Did nationalism, whether narrow or wide, play a vital role in the lives and works of the brothers

Document Type:Critical essay Full Text: COPYRIGHT 1999 Gale Group, COPYRIGHT 2007 Gale, Cengage Learning Full Text: [(essay date 1978) In the following essay, Snyder discusses the Fairy Tales in relation to German nationalism and the Romantic movement, focusing on how the tales present positive, praiseworthy traits common to the German people while at the same time promoting the idea of fear of the outsider, personified in the character of the Jew.] All my works relate to the Fatherland, from whose soil they derive their strength. Jakob Grimm For generations the Grimm Fairy Tales have enjoyed international popularity. Children all over the world have been and are still fascinated by the stories of Cinderella, and Hansel and Gretel. Yet, paradoxically, the scholars who collected and refined these tales worked within the framework of that romanticism which became an important element of German nationalism. The Grimms regarded all their work, including the fairy tales, as deriving its strength from the soil of the Fatherland. When this theme was presented originally, it turned out to be most controversial. It was denounced by defenders of childhood on the ground that no taint of nationalism could possibly exist in stories so popular among the world's children. Among the most vociferous critics were German scholars who had been obliged to leave Hitler's Germany as refugees: to them the idea was exaggerated and unfair.

  • Gendered Chthonic Imagery in Robert Bly's Iron John
    Çankaya Üniversitesi Fen-Edebiyat Fakültesi, Journal of Arts and Sciences Sayı: 10 / Aralık 2008 What Our Darkness Tells Us: Gendered Chthonic Imagery in Robert Bly’s Iron John: A Book About Men and Ursula Le Guin’s The Tombs of Atuan “This thing of darkness, I acknowledge mine.” Prospero (The Tempest, Act V, Scene 1) Cem Kılıçarslan* Abstract The Jungian concept of the chthonic, or the underground, is a recurrent element in fantasy literature. An analysis of two works—Robert Bly’s Iron John: A Book About Men and Ursula Le Guin’s The Tombs of Atuan—the former with a male, the latter with a female protagonist, reveals that the imagery and themes of the chthonic have gendered connotations in fantastic narratives. Moreover, the chthonic functions differently for male and female characters in the formation of an individual Self. For males, the chthonic has a constructive function: it is necessary for the male psyche to experience the chthonic in order to be whole. For females, the chthonic has a destructive function: the female psyche has to undertake a destructive experience in order to save herself from domination as symbolized by the chthonic realm. Both experiences nevertheless result in a form of unification, or a wholeness of the Self, which is represented through coupling with a member of the opposite sex. Key words: Chthonic, Carl G. Jung, fantasy literature, Iron John, Robert Bly, Ursula Le Guin, The Tombs of Atuan, gender, masculinity, femininity * Lecturer, Hacettepe University, Faculty of Letters Department of American Culture and Literature 53 What Our Darkness Tells Us: Gendered Chthonic Imagery in Robert Bly’s Iron John: A Book About Men and Ursula Le Guin’s Tombs of Atuan Özet Jung psikolojisinin elementlerinden biri olan yeraltı (chthonic) teması ve ilintili imge ve kavramlar fantazi edebiyatının sıklıkla kullanılan öğelerindendir.

  • Disability, Difference, and Determination in Grimm's Fairy Tales
    International Journal of Humanities and Social Science Vol. 4, No. 11; September 2014 Disability, Difference, and Determination in Grimm’s Fairy Tales Dr Victoria Zascavage Associate Professor of Special Education Xavier University Cincinnati, Ohio 45207 … Normalcy must constantly be enforced in public venues … creating and bolstering its image by processing, comparing, constructing, deconstructing images of normalcy and the abnormal. (Davis 23) Born in Hanau in the principality of Hesse-Kassel during the later part of the 18th century, the brothers Grimm, Jacob and Wilhelm, were graduates of the University of Marburg. Originally referred to as Children's and Household Tales, the Grimm’s Complete Fairy Tales are rich with imagination, triumph, valor, honor, and wonders of the supernatural. The tales are also dark with graphic depictions of torture, cannibalism, incest, cruelty, seduction, abandonment, and vindictiveness. In the preface to the first edition of the Children's and Household Tales, Wilhelm Grimm reflecting on the “universal truth” of the tales stated: The tales live on in such a way that no one thinks about whether they are good or bad, poetic or vulgar. We know them and we love them just because we happen to have heard them in a certain way, and we like them without reflecting why (205). At the turn of the 20th century, Grimm’s Children's and Household Tales had been part of the Prussian and German principalities teaching curriculum for over 30 years (Zipes, Introduction, xxxxiii). The first English translation of the Children's and Household Tales occurred in the late 1800s. In a 1993 compilation of the Grimm’s Complete Fairy Tales (Grimm), published by Barnes and Nobels Books in collaboration with Doubleday Publishing House, there are 211 tales taken from the seventh edition (1857) of the Children's and Household Tales.

  • Hair Imagery in Grimm's Fairy Tales
    HAIR IMAGERY IN GRIMM'S FAIRY TALES A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE GRADUATE DIVISION OF THE UNIVERSITY OF HAWAII IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS IN EUROPEAN LANGUAGES AND LITERATURE (GERMAN) DECEMBER 1994 By Andrea Linda Deslauriers Thesis Committee: Jürgen Sang, Chairperson William Scherer Jean Toyama We certify that we have read this thesis and that, in our opinion, it is satisfactory in scope and quality as a thesis for the degree of Master of Arts in European Languages and Literature (German). THESIS COMMITTEE ________________________ Chairperson ________________________ ________________________ ii © Copyright 1994 by Andrea Linda Deslauriers iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS My thankfulness is expressed to all who helped me in various ways to write this thesis. Special thanks to the members of my thesis committee, Dr. Jürgen Sang, Dr. William Scherer, and Dr. Jean Toyama who have encouraged this project with time, heart, and mind. To my Teaching Assistant sisters, Susie, Ann, Sue, and Yuka who have always been helpful and positive. To my dear husband André who has supported me with understanding and love. iv ABSTRACT This thesis analyzed hair imagery in seventy-two out of two hundred and fifty fairy tales by the brothers Grimm. Hair imagery was categorized into poetic form-elements: the direct image, the idiom, the simile, the metaphor, the symbol, and the motif. In addition, hair symbolism found within the context of fifteen fairy tales was interpreted by using the Jungian psychological method of interpretation. It was determined that hair imagery occurs distinctly with certain themes that connect hair with its meaning for human life.

  • Fairy Tales These Kallinikos
    Fairy Tales These Kallinikos Fairy tales are like classical music. The more we listen to them and the better we understand them, the more we can appreciate their beauty and grasp the profound truths they carry. Fairy tales are nourishment for the soul, both for children and for adults. They set the soul in motion. Good psychologists know this and use stories therapeutically for people whose inner life is frozen. Fairy tales communicated basic truths about human life and about how the world is. They are archetypal stories present in virtually every cultural tradition and a source of deep wisdom about the world and about the human condition. There was a time when reading or telling fairy tales was disapproved of because of their apparent lack of realism. Bruno Bettelheim, a twentieth-century psychiatrist and author, courageously wrote of the value of fairy tales and gave us permission to read and tell them again. Most recently, Robert Bly, in his book Iron John, and Clarissa Pinkola Estes, in Women Who Run with the Wolves, have used fairy tales and myths to illuminate hidden longings deep within the soul of the ʻwildʼ archetypal, man and woman. Fairy tales stimulate the imagination, awaken the powers of listening, feeling and understanding, and nourish the inner person to unfathomable depths. These stories originate in a distant past when the consciousness of the human being was different than it is today. Before reading, writing, science, and history, the human consciousness was similar to what today we call dream consciousness. Elders and leaders whose power of intuition was developed had access to cosmic wisdom and embodied this in stories.
