  • Fairy Tales, Old and New: Barthelme an Coover, Two Contemporary Fabulators and the Ancient Art of Story-Telling
    Anuario Nº 6 - Fac. de Cs. Humanas - UNLPam (271-277) Fairy tales, old and new: Barthelme an Coover, two contemporary fabulators and the ancient art of story-telling María Graciela Eliggi Cuentos de hadas tradicionales y nuevos: Barthelme y Coover, dos fabuladores contemporáneos y el antiguo arte de contar cuentos. Resumen Los cuentos de hadas han existido durante siglos en diferentes culturas, y sus funciones han sido motivo de debate y discusión prácticamente desde sus orígenes. A lo largo del siglo XX, muchos escritores y críticos literarios renovaron el análisis de los cuentos tradicionales y produjeron nuevas versiones y /o interpretaciones de variada naturaleza de sus elementos constitutivos. ¿Qué necesidad cultural se satisface con la transmisión de este tipo de cuentos, y qué clase de mensajes imprimen estos cuentos en al seno de sus culturas? ¿Por qué autores de la talla de Coover y Barthelme se han ocupado en el siglo XX de re- escribir dos de los más famosos cuentos de hadas como lo son La Bella Durmiente y Blancanieves y los Siete Enanos, respectivamente? Para responder estas preguntas, en este trabajo se analizan las obras de metaficción de ambos autores contemporáneos –Briar Rose y Snowwhite– sobre la base del conocimiento que los lectores potenciales pueden tener de las versiones tradicionales que las originaron. Palabras clave: cuentos de hadas, crítica moral, metaficción, reescritura, significado(s). Lenguas Extranjeras Abstract Fairy tales have existed for centuries in different cultures and their functions have been debated almost ever since they originated. Along the twentieth century, many writers and critics went back to the analysis of the traditional tales producing either new versions of the stories, or interpretations of varied nature of their elements.

  • Little Snow-White
    Little Snow-White Germany, Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm Once upon a time in mid winter, when the snowflakes were falling like feathers from heaven, a beautiful queen sat sewing at her window, which had a frame of black ebony wood. As she sewed, she looked up at the snow and pricked her finger with her needle. Three drops of blood fell into the snow. The red on the white looked so beautiful, that she thought, "If only I had a child as white as snow, as red as blood, and as black as this frame." Soon afterward she had a little daughter that was as white as snow, as red as blood, and as black as ebony wood, and therefore they called her Little Snow-White. Now the queen was the most beautiful woman in all the land, and very proud of her beauty. She had a mirror, which she stood in front of every morning, and asked: Mirror, mirror, on the wall, Who in this land is fairest of all? And the mirror always said: You, my queen, are fairest of all. And then she knew for certain that no one in the world was more beautiful than she. Now Snow-White grew up, and when she was seven years old, she was so beautiful, that she surpassed even the queen herself. Now when the queen asked her mirror: Mirror, mirror, on the wall, Who in this land is fairest of all? The mirror said: You, my queen, are fair; it is true. But Little Snow-White is still A thousand times fairer than you.

  • Aging with Disney and the Gendering of Evil
    Journal of Literature and Art Studies, February 2015, Vol. 5, No. 2, 114-127 doi: 10.17265/2159-5836/2015.02.004 D DAVID PUBLISHING Aging With Disney and the Gendering of Evil Nada Ramadan Elnahla Alexandria University, Alexandria, Egypt Walt Disney animated films are considered synonymous with wholesome family entertainment despite the inherent negative messages of gender, age, and power hierarchies behind them. This paper proposes to explore the aspect of age as intersecting with gender through the villainesses in six of Disney’s popular animated films: Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (1937), Cinderella (1950), Sleeping Beauty (1959), The Little Mermaid (1989), Tangled (2010), and Frozen (2013). How Disney alters the actions of major and minor characters, and the construction of aging female characters and the key characteristics they exhibit during their fight for eternal youth, beauty, and social and political power will be analyzed, attempting to show how Disney is not a harmless substitute for a babysitter for children. Keywords: aging, ageism, feminism, Disney, animated films, villain Introduction In 1923, Walt Disney and his brother Roy pooled their money to set up a cartoon studio in Hollywood: The Disney Brothers’ Studio. It would take Disney 14 years before the first animated feature-length version of Snow White was released. The film’s phenomenal success at the time (earning eight million dollars on its initial release and winning a full-size Oscar statuette and seven miniature ones) signaled the beginning of a golden age of animation and a rising influence of the Disney movies, brand, and theme parks.

While she was sewing, she looked out at the snow and pricked her finger with the needle. Three drops of blood fell onto the snow” (Snow White 81). This is a quote which many may recognize as the opening to the famous fairy tale Snow White. But how many would take notice of the number three in the last sentence of the quote and question its significance? Why, specifically, did three drops of blood fall from the queen’s finger? The quote from Snow White is just one example of many in which the number three presents itself as a significant part of the story.

O’Brien In the days leading up to Christmas in 1937, a strange construction project was occurring along Wilshire Boulevard, near the Carthay Circle Theatre in Los Angeles, California. Small cottages with water mills and oversized mushrooms began to materialize. Outside of the theatre large display boards were erected. While passers-by may have been curious, fi lm critics were dismissing it as just another piece of ‘Disney’s folly’, the negative descriptor they had taken to use when discussing Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (David Hand, 1937). 1 By 1937, the fi lm had amassed a budget exceeding 1.5 million dollars, and Hollywood insiders and critics were unsure of whether or not audiences would identify with and embrace animated characters and the full-length story they were telling. 2 Ward Kimball, one of Disney’s key animators, admitted that when he was working on it people would tell him that nobody would sit still for a seven-reel cartoon, because the bright colours would hurt their eyes.

    The Eight Elements for Identifying the Story of Snow White: From Grimms’ to DEFA to Disney by Chloé Johnston A THESIS submitted to Oregon State University Honors College in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Psychology (Honors Associate) Presented August 26, 2020 Commencement June 2021 AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Chloé Johnston for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Psychology presented on August 26, 2020. Title: An Analysis of Snow White: From Grimms’ to DEFA to Disney. Abstract approved: Sebastian Heiduschke The Grimms’ Brothers left their mark on history when they published their first edition of the Kinder- und Hausmärchen gesammelt durch die Brüder Grimm (Nursery and Household tales Collected by the Brothers Grimm) in 1812. Among these newly published tales was that of Snow White. Within the paradigm of the United States, the most salient example of Grimms’ fairy tales are the better-known Disney films that have shaped the childhoods of many generations; starting in 1937, when Disney released its first feature-length animated film, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. In 1962, an East German Production Company by the name of Deutsche Filmaktiengesellschaft (DEFA), produced their own adaptation of Snow White, Schneewittchen. The purpose of this thesis is to highlight that despite differences in time, culture, and medium the story of Snow White is still recognizable with the inclusion of eight core elements. These eight being: Snow White the character, the Evil Queen, the Mirror, the Huntsman, the Seven Dwarfs, the Apple, Snow White’s Revival, and her Happily Ever After.
