Ever Since Humans Gained the Ability of Higher Thought People Have Been Creating and Telling Stories
English 12 Final Essay Choice 1 Ever since humans gained the ability of higher thought people have been creating and telling stories. These stories are passed on from one generation to the next and at some point become more than stories; they become tradition, culture, and history. Long after the original writers or creators of the stories are dead and all but forgotten, the stories remain and become a legacy. With each year that passes by the stories grow, they are modified or retold a different way, and as they grow those stories become more rooted in the cultures of those who share them. Fairytales are some of the most widespread and evident stories in cultures; they manage to catch the interest of almost all readers, and have grown far more than the average story. One such beloved fairytale is “Little Red Riding Hood,” which has seen many different authors and titles throughout its existence. The story of Little Red Riding Hood began as tales told to children, passed on through word of mouth alone. The first written version, which has come to represent the oldest and original story, was “Little Red Riding Hood” by Charles Perrault. The tale followed the characteristics of all fairytales; a handful of characters, a simple and short storyline, and a lesson to be learned. The characters were: a young and pretty girl known only as Little Red Riding Hood, a wolf that had the ability to speak, and an old and sickly grandmother of Red. The tale mentioned Red’s mother and woodsmen briefly, but their only purpose was to guide the story, they did not significantly interact within the story.

The Goldfish and Little Red Riding Hood: Characters and Their Combinations in Fairy Tale Jokes and Parodies*
Journal of Ethnology and Folkloristics 13 (1): 9–28 DOI: 10.2478/jef-2019-0002 THE GOLDFISH AND LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD: CHARACTERS AND THEIR COMBINATIONS IN FAIRY TALE JOKES AND PARODIES* RISTO JÄRV Head of the Archives, PhD Estonian Folklore Archives, Estonian Literary Museum Vanemuise 42, 51003 Tartu, Estonia e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT There are two types of joke that can be described as fairy tale jokes: those with punchlines that include fairy tale characters, and fairy tale parodies. The paper discusses fairy tale jokes that were sent to the jokes page of the major Estonian internet Web Portal Delfi by Internet users between 2000 and 2011, and jokes added by the editors of the portal between 2011 and 2018 (CFTJ). The joke corpus has had different addresses at different times, and was a live ‘folklore field’ for the first few years after creation. Of all the characters, the Goldfish appeared in the largest number of jokes (76 out of a total of 286 jokes), followed by Little Red Riding Hood (72). Other fairy tale characters feature in a 14 or fewer fairy tale jokes each. Several fairy tale jokes circulating on the Internet varied over the period observed. Fairy tale jokes generally get their impetus from the characters and from plots with unexpected outcomes. A seemingly innocent fairy tale character is often linked to a sexual theme: sexuality holds first place as the source of humour in fairy tale jokes, although this may be caused by the so-called genre code of jokes. KEYWORDS: fairy tale joke • fairy tale • joke • interpretation • parody Fairy tale characters are often iconic and need no explanation; they are likely to evoke associations with the full content of the tale and its web of relations in most people in the Western cultural sphere.

Little Red Riding Hood
CONTEXTUALIZE - Written by Scottish poet Carol Ann Duffy - It is the first poem in her 1999 anthology The World's Wife, which subverts myths and fairytales in order to re-examine and play with traditional narratives that exist within them, particularly when it comes to gender roles. - subverts the original Brother Grimm’s fairytale Little Red Riding Hood. Though usually portrayed as a naive girl ultimately eaten by a wolf, Duffy's Little Red Cap is a young woman brimming with sexual curiosity and personal agency. Her relationship with the wolf, though marked by a predatory power imbalance, serves as the catalyst for her coming-of-age. - The content of this poem can be seen as a reflection of Duffy’s own experiences with her Adrian Henri who she was in a relationship with despite their large age gap. In this sense, this poem can be seen as having an autobiographical element. OVERVIEW - The poem is telling the story of the female persona who transitions from childhood to adulthood and spots a wolf, who she gets into a relationship with. However, over time the female persona gains her poetic and sexual independence and slowly outgrows the wolf. Ultimately, the female persona kills the wolf (which has both a literal and metaphorical significance) and is able to walk away from her relationship as an independent woman. - The poem is highly symbolic, with the wolf representing male power, and Red Cap representing the transformation of a girl to young adulthood and sexual awakening. NARRATION - Narrated from a first-person perspective instead of a 3rd person omniscient as is the case with the original story.

Carol Ann Duffy's Postmodern Satire
MIXING GENRES AND GENDERS: CAROL ANN DUFFY’S POSTMODERN SATIRE: THE WORLD’S 1 WIFE Pilar Abad University of Valladolid INTRODUCTION The editors of the 1993 anthology entitled The New Poetry define the latter as a kind of poetry “… that is fresh in its attitudes, risk-taking in its address, and plural in its forms and voices…” (Hulse, Kennedy & Morley 1993:16). Most of this poetry is written by poets who, at the time, were officially appointed as New Gen Poets,2 and seven years later (2001) are considered solid assets,3 an appreciation which comes down to our day. Some of them were eight women- poets whose poetry has been summed up as “… moving, entertaining, technically innovative, often brilliant…”(Dunmore 1995) and among them is the one who will be the focus of attention in this exposé: Carol Ann Duffy (1955-). I have chosen Carol Ann Duffy as my subject as, undoubtedly, today’s most widely acclaimed mainstream British woman-poet: “… The figurehead of New Generation … Carol Ann has vindicated the faith people had in her then by becoming an indisputable popular poet alongside Heaney. The poet’s poet in 1994, she is quite clearly now the People’s (poet)…” (Forbes 2001:22). In 1999 she was candidate for the Laureate Poet’s throne (after Heaney’s resignation) and undeservedly relegated (in favour of Andrew Motion) mainly for political 1 Conferencia pronunciada en el XXVIII Congreso internacional AEDEAN. 2 See Longley, “How We Made the New Generation” (1994): 52-53; Forbes, “Talking About the New Generation” (1994): 4-6.

Little Red Cap by Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm
Little Red Cap by Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm Once upon a time there was a sweet little girl. Everyone who saw her liked her, but most of all her grandmother, who did not know what to give the child next. Once she gave her a little cap made of red velvet. Because it suited her so well, and she wanted to wear it all the time, she came to be known as Little Red Cap. One day her mother said to her, “Come Little Red Cap. Here is a piece of cake and a bottle of wine. Take them to your grandmother. She is sick and weak, and they will do her well. Mind your manners and give her my greet- ings. Behave yourself on the way, and do not leave the path, or you might fall down and break the glass, and then there will be nothing for your sick grand- mother.” Little Red Cap promised to obey her mother. The grandmother lived out in the woods, a half hour from the village. When Little Red Cap entered the woods a wolf came up to her. She did not know what a wicked animal he was, and was not afraid of him. “Good day to you, Little Red Cap.” “Thank you, wolf.” “Where are you going so early, Little Red Cap?” “To grandmother’s.” “And what are you carrying under your apron?” “Grandmother is sick and weak, and I am taking her some cake and wine. We baked yesterday, and they should give her strength.” “Little Red Cap, just where does your grandmother live?” “Her house is a good quarter hour from here in the woods, under the three large oak trees.

“Little Red Riding Hood” by Charles Perrault
Charles Perrault, “Little Red Riding Hood” (1697) Transl. Andrew Lang (1889) Perrault (1623 - 1708 ) was a French writer and government functionary who late in life published a collection of folktales, written for his children and drawn from pre-existing stories but heavily reworked by him; among the collection are such classics as “Sleeping Beauty,” “Puss in Boots,” and “Cinderella.” Andrew Lang (1844 – 1912) was a Scottish folklorist, writer, historian, translator, and poet now known primarily for his own folk tales. Once upon a time there lived in a certain village a little country girl, the prettiest creature who was ever seen. Her mother was excessively fond of her; and her grandmother doted on her still more. This good woman had a little red riding hood made for her. It suited the girl so extremely well that everybody called her Little Red Riding Hood. One day her mother, having made some cakes, said to her, "Go, my dear, and see how your grandmother is doing, for I hear she has been very ill. Take her a cake, and this little pot of butter." Little Red Riding Hood set out immediately to go to her grandmother, who lived in another village. As she was going through the wood, she met with a wolf, who had a very great mind to eat her up, but he dared not, because of some woodcutters working nearby in the forest. He asked her where she was going. The poor child, who did not know that it was dangerous to stay and talk to a wolf, said to him, "I am going to see my grandmother and carry her a cake and a little pot of butter from my mother." "Does she live far off?" said the wolf "Oh I say," answered Little Red Riding Hood; "it is beyond that mill you see there, at the first house in the village." "Well," said the wolf, "and I'll go and see her too.

Little Red Riding Hood Annotations.Pdf
1. Red: Scarlet or red is a sexually vibrant and suggestive color. At one time, it was not worn by morally upright women thanks to its sinful symbolism. It is also the color of blood with all of its connotations. Perrault introduced the color red to the tale when he first wrote it. ! 2. Little Red Riding Hood: The red riding hood is a popular and familiar symbol to much of Europe and North America. In the height of portraiture in the nineteenth century, many young daughters of wealthy families were painted wearing red capes or hoods. Today, some little girls still want to wear red capes for Halloween or other imaginative play. 3. Go, my dear, and see how your grandmother is doing: In Charles Perrault's version of the tale, the mother simply instructs the young girl to take the items to her grandmother. The Grimms, however, added an admonition from the mother to not stray from the path, adding a moral message to children. Perrault adds the moral to "not talk to strangers" at the end of the tale. Through the moralizing of both Perrault and Grimms', critics explain that the tale moved away from its obvious sexual and horrific tones, to more closely resemble a fable or cautionary tale (Tatar 1992). You can read the Grimms' version here: Little Red Cap.! 4. Cake, and this little pot of butter: These are the food items originally described by Charles Perrault. Later versions have included other food items, most often a bottle of wine. ! 5. Wolf: The wolf has become a popular image in fairy tales thanks to this tale and The Tale of the Three Little Pigs.
