While we will concentrate on the German context, and in particular the works of the Brothers Grimm, we will also consider fairy tales drawn from a number of different national traditions and historical periods, including the American present. Various strategies for interpreting fairy tales will be examined, including methodologies derived from structuralism, folklore studies, gender studies, and psychoanalysis. We will explore pedagogical and political uses and abuses of fairy tales. We will investigate the evolution of specific tale types and trace their transformations in various media from oral storytelling through print to film, television, and the stage. Finally, we will consider potential strategies for the reinterpretation and rewriting of fairy tales.

    NEWSWALK MARINA WARNER ‘ I DESPERATELY WANTED TO BE A SAINT’ The British author, scholar and winner of the 2015 Holberg Prize, for outstanding researchers in the arts, tells Nicholas Shakespeare about how her education in a Belgian convent sowed the ‘seeds of disobedience’ for a career spent examining and exploding myths, during which she has taken aim at female icons from the Virgin Mary to Joan of Arc PHOTOGRAPHS BY DANNY NORTH FOR NEWSWEEK 48 Newsweek 15/05/2015 MARINA WARNER ‘ I DESPERATELY WANTED TO BE A SAINT’ Newsweek 15/05/2015 49 doesn’t like the sea. He likes going to Paris, and we wander about, up Rue Saint-Denis, Rue Saint- Martin, where every building is fascinating.” It was on a walk along the Cambridge Backs that she and Graeme had met – “after a lecture I delivered on the symbolism of bananas”. Our destination this afternoon lies on foot through the streets of London. We cross Euston Road and head up Judd Street in the hope of emulating London novelist Iain Sinclair: “Walking is the best way to explore and exploit the city … tramping asphalted earth in alert reverie.” By coincidence, Warner was just in Cairo to give the Edward Said Memorial Lecture. She seized the chance to look up her childhood home on Tahrir Square; also, her father’s bookshop – in 1952 called “Isis”, and now a wholesale garment storehouse “where all the women are veiled and no men are allowed in”. Our spatial memory, she says, lasts longer than our visual memory. As she climbed the stairs, Warner recalled the bend in the staircase, the big desk, the books in shelves below … And vivid frame by vivid frame, her parents trembled back into focus.
