Andersen’s Fairy Tales THE EMPEROR’S NEW CLOTHES Many years ago, there was an Emperor, who was so excessively fond of new clothes, that he spent all his money in dress. He did not trouble himself in the least about his soldiers; nor did he care to go either to the theatre or the chase, except for the opportunities then afforded him for displaying his new clothes. He had a different suit for each hour of the day; and as of any other king or emperor, one is accustomed to say, ‘he is sitting in council,’ it was always said of him, ‘The Emperor is sitting in his wardrobe.’ Time passed merrily in the large town which was his capital; strangers arrived every day at the court. One day, two rogues, calling themselves weavers, made their appearance. They gave out that they knew how to weave stuffs of the most beautiful colors and elaborate patterns, the clothes manufactured from which should have the wonderful property of remaining invisible to everyone who was unfit for the office he held, or who was extraordinarily simple in character. 2 of 260 eBook brought to you by Andersen’s Fairy Tales Create, view, and edit PDF.

This stuff must be woven for me immediately.’ And he caused large sums of money to be given to both the weavers in order that they might begin their work directly.

The people lose their playboy but Christy finds himself.H What is noteworthy, however, is that Christy Mahon's discovery of his true Self is precipitated by his desire to win Pegeen Mike's regard. Thus in Peer Gynt as in The Playboy of the Western World the liberating force, the orientation toward self­ knowledge resides in the woman. One here cannot but note the striking difference in technique in the two playwrights' ap­ proach to the quest of Self. It has taken Ibsen a lifetime to carry his hero through to self-knowledge, while it has barely taken Synge twenty-four hours to accomplish the same end. Does this imply that, for all the differences between the two plays in question, what Ibsen spreads over a lifetime, Synge could do within one revolution of the sun, and, what is more, achieve concentration and immediacy through observing the three unities? I have no definite answer. But if this were his intention, we should not be surprised, for the note of challenge to Ibsen is sustained throughout his work.

  • Richard Hugo House, Fall 2016: Fairy Taleinspired Fiction Level
    Richard Hugo House, Fall 2016: Fairy Tale­Inspired Fiction Level: Intermediate to advanced. The class will be most useful to writers who have previously completed one or more stories. The class will be structured as a workshop and practicum; that is, each two­hour session will be devoted to a combination of workshop of a class member’s story; discussion of published tales or stories; and in­ class writing exercises, often related to that day’s reading, which could serve as idea­generators for new work. Writers in the class may have already been working in tale/fantasy/magical realism/surrealist modes in their fiction, or they may have come to the course looking for new ideas or directions. Unless the class turns out to be very large, the plan will be that each writer in the class gets two chances to have a story draft workshop­discussed. The second workshop could be used to discuss a revised draft of the earlier­workshopped story or a new story, whichever the writer prefers. Reading assignments will be available either as handouts or at online links. SYLLABUS Week One: Fairy Tale Foundations. To read: Grimms tales: “Cinderella,” “Little Red Cap,” and “The Six Swans.” To Bring: Your memory of a favorite fairy tale—or any memory of a first story or book you read. Bring an actual copy of a story or tale if you can. Week Two: Making a Fairy­Tale Canon. To read: Grimms tales: “Thumbling,” “The Robber Bridegroom,” “Brier Rose,” “Snow White,” “Rumpelstiltskin,” “The Goose Girl,” and “Bluebeard.” First workshop.

And when my first grade teacher discovered I could read aloud “The Ugly Duckling” without any coaching, she exempted me from regular reading instruction. But Andersen probably would not have appeared on a list of my favorite authors. Reading him was a visceral but not especially pleasant experience, because the stories that aroused a ghoulish confusion of terror and pity were the most mes- merizing. The response was triggered not so much by Andersen’s words as by Arthur Syzk’s jewel-toned illustrations in the Grosset & Dunlap edition. The upper left-hand corner of Syzk’s endpapers was dominated by the Snow Queen, whose huge, haunted yet cruel eyes compelled me to stare at its complex design. At the same time, her figure prompted an equally powerful desire to turn away.
