The Frog Prince There Was Once a King Who Had Beautiful Daughters The Frog Prince There was once a king who had beautiful daughters. The youngest often liked to play with a golden ball near a pond, in the middle of a forest near the palace. One day, her ball fell into the pond, and it was much too deep for the princess to get, but she was given help by a kind frog who told her that her tears would even melt the stones. He told her that he would get her ball for her, if she allowed him to be her playmate and eat from her plate, drink from her cup and stay with her. She agreed, but she did not keep her word when the frog returned her ball to her. Instead, she ran home and left him behind. The next morning the frog showed up at her home, and he asked that she, please keep her end of the bargain. The king, upon hearing what happened, ordered his beloved daughter to keep her promise. So, she was forced to allow the frog to eat from her plate, drink from her cup and stay with her. The morning after, the frog told the princess that he would leave her forever if she did one last thing for him, which was to give him a kiss. She, being glad to be rid of him, agreed and kissed him immediately. At once, the frog turned into a handsome young prince! He had been cursed, and the only thing that could break the curse was the kiss of a princess.

  • The Frog Prince Retellings
    THIS LIST WILL BE PERIODICALLY UPDATED, as authors come out with new tales and/or as I discover others. Most of the links lead to the Kindle versions of the books. Ratings: These are reading GUIDELINES. Reading ages and abilities vary widely, so please keep in mind that I don’t even pretend to know what you or your kids/siblings/whoever can handle. These ratings are determined based on general reading levels and general content tolerance levels. The rating means a book has one or more of that kind of content, not necessarily all of them. Not every book rated PG-13 is going to have swearing, for example. Sometimes it’s rated that for violence. PG-13 does not necessarily mean ‘clean’. That’s why I’ve added clean to the series that qualify. G: as safe as a kids’ book or family documentary PG: mild violence, mild clean/sweet romance handled lightly, and/or exciting adventures that aren’t too tense. PG-13: some violence, mild physicality and sexuality, and/or mild swearing. PG-16: high levels of violence, psychologically medium-dark scenes, and/or mid-level sexual content, adult concepts, and/or medium-level swear words and frequency. Mature: intense violence, high level sexual content, intense ‘dark’ content, psychologically dark scenes or concepts, and/or lots of swearing. Clean: little to no mild swearing, violence that isn’t graphic, kissing and sexual content handled the same way you’d find in a Hallmark movie. Genre definitions: high fantasy: takes place in a secondary world that has no knowledge of Earth, contains magic/fantasy races/fantasy

  • The Brothers Grimm Stories
    The Brothers Grimm 항햗햔햙햍햊햗햘 핲햗햎햒햒 1 The Brothers Grimm Letter from the Chair: Dear Delegates, My name is John Ruela and I will be your Chair for the Brothers Grimm Crisis Committee at SHUMUN XXI. 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! My name is Sebastian Kopec, and I have the pleasure of being your Crisis Director for the Brothers Grimm Crisis Committee.

  • The Frog Prince, by the Brothers Grimm
    Name _____________________________________ Date _______________ The Frog Prince, by the Brothers Grimm One fine evening a young princess put on her bonnet and clogs, and went out to take a walk by herself in a wood; and when she came to a cool spring of water, that rose in the midst of it, she sat herself down to rest a while. Now she had a golden ball in her hand, which was her favourite plaything; and she was always tossing it up into the air, and catching it again as it fell. After a time she threw it up so high that she missed catching it as it fell; and the ball bounded away, and rolled along upon the ground, till at last it fell down into the spring. The princess looked into the spring after her ball, but it was very deep, so deep that she could not see the bottom of it. Then she began to bewail her loss, and said, “Alas! if I could only get my ball again, I would give all my fine clothes and jewels, and everything that I have in the world.” Whilst she was speaking, a frog put its head out of the water, and said, “Princess, why do you weep so bitterly?” “Alas!” said she, “what can you do for me, you nasty frog? My golden ball has fallen into the spring.” The frog said, “I want not your pearls, and jewels, and fine clothes; but if you will love me, and let me live with you and eat from off your golden plate, and sleep upon your bed, I will bring you your ball again.” “What nonsense,” thought the princess, “this silly frog is talking! He can never even get out of the spring to visit me, though he may be able to get my ball for me, and therefore I will tell him he shall have what he asks.” So she said to the frog, “Well, if you will bring me my ball, I will do all you ask.” Then the frog put his head down, and dived deep under the water; and after a little while he came up again, with the ball in his mouth, and threw it on the edge of the spring.

However much we might like to, we cannot blame the Brothers Grimm for their insensitivity to womyn’s issues, minority cultures, and the environment. Likewise, in the self-righteous Copenhagen of Hans Christian Anderson, the inalienable rights of mermaids were hardly given a second thought. Today, we have the opportunity – and the obligation – to rethink these “classic” stories so they reflect more enlightened times. To that effort I submit this humble book. While its original title, Fairy Stories For a Modern World, was abandoned for obvious reasons (kudos to my editor for pointing out my heterosexualist bias), I think the collection stands on its own.

  • A Content Analysis on the Meaning of Disenchantment in Fairy Tales
    Howson, Elizabeth Walker. A Content Analysis on the Meaning of Disenchantment in Fairy Tales. A Master’s Paper for the M.S. in L.S. degree. November, 2007. 32 pages. Advisor: Brian Sturm This study is a content analysis of disenchantment in fairy tales. It examines fifteen fairy tales to see what sorts of methods of disenchantment are used, and what these methods say about the use of disenchantment in these stories. As a result of this study, four methods of disenchantment were identified. They are disenchantment through love, disenchantment through removal of a foreign object, disenchantment through violence, and disenchantment through courage. By examining disenchantment in fairy tales, it is clear that this concept is a tool for conveying the importance of honor, goodness, acceptance and inner strength to readers.
