MARTIN'S STREET, LONDON 1913 ^1^^ COPYRIGHT First Edition, 1S63. Edition tvit/i IUvstratio?is in Colour by Way^vick Goble, 1913 DEDICATED TO LITTLE OLIVE )»«>»•' 9 S> J'>« PREFACE A PREFACE is usually an excrescence on a good book, and present a vain apology for a worthless one ; but in the instance a few explanatory words seem necessary. This Is meant to be the best collection attainable of that delight of all children, and of many grown people who retain the child-heart still —the old-fashioned, time- honoured classic Fairy-tale. It has been compiled from familiar, the all sources — far-off and familiar ; when stories have been traced with care to their original form, which, if foreign, has been re-translated, condensed, and in any other needful way made suitable for modern British children. Perrault, Madame d'Aulnois, and Grimm have thus been laid under contribution. Where it was not possible to get at the original of a tale, its various versions in have been collated, compared, and combined ; and some instances, where this still proved unsatisfactory, the whole story has been written afresh. The few real old English fairy tales, such as Jack the Giant-Killer, Tom Thumb, etc., whose authorship is lost in obscurity, but whose charming Saxon simplicity of style, and intense realism of narration, make for them an ever-green im- vii — THE FAIRY BOOK mortality—these have been left intact ; for no later touch would improve them. All modern stories have been excluded. Of course, in fairy tales instruction is not expected we find there only the rude moral of virtue rewarded and vice punished. But children will soon discover for them- selves that in real life all beautiful people are not good, nor all ugly ones wicked ; that every elder sister is not ungenerous, nor every stepmother cruel. The tender young heart is often reached as soon by the imagination as by the intellect : and without attempting any direct appeal to either reason or conscience, the Editor of this Collection has been especially careful that it should contain nothing which could really harm a child. She therefore trusts that, whatever its defects, this Fairy Book will not deserve a criticism,— almost the sharpest that can be given to any work " that it would have been better if the author had taken more pains." vm CONTENTS The Sleeping Beauty in the Wood .

When at last, after long waiting, the queen presented her husband with a little daughter, his majesty showed his joy by giving a christening feast, so grand that the like of it was never known. He invited all the fairies in the land—there were seven altogether—to stand godmothers to the little princess ; hoping that each might bestow on her some good gift, as was the custom of good fairies in those days. After the ceremony, all the guests returned to the palace, where there was set before each fairy-godmother a magnificent covered dish, with an embroidered table- napkin, and a knife and fork of pure gold, studded with diamonds and rubies. But alas ! as they placed themselves at table, there entered an old fairy who had never been invited, because more than fifty years since she had left the king's dominion on a tour of pleasure, and had not been heard of until this day. His majesty, much troubled, desired a cover to be placed for her, but it was of common delf, for he had ordered from his jeweller only seven gold dishes for the seven fairies aforesaid. The elderly fairy thought herself neglected, and muttered angry menaces, which were overheard by one of the younger fairies, who chanced to sit beside her. This good godmother, afraid of harm to the pretty baby, hastened to hide herself behind the tapestry in the hall. She did this, because she wished all the others to THE FAIRY BOOK speak first—so that if any ill gift were bestowed on the child, she might be able to counteract it. The six now offered their good wishes—which, unlike most wishes, were sure to come true. The fortunate little princess was to grow up the fairest woman in the world ; to have a temper sweet as an angel ; to be perfectly graceful and gracious to sing like a ; nightingale ; to dance like a leaf on a tree ; and to possess every accomplishment under the sun.

  • The Best a Brand Can Be? P&G's Femvertising Meeting Hegemonic
    Course: SKOM12 Term: Spring 2020 Supervisor: Scott Burnett Examiner: Cecilia Cassinger The best a brand can be? P&G’s femvertising meeting hegemonic masculinity PATRICIA AGUDELO Lund University Department of strategic communication Master’s thesis 1 Abstract The best a brand can be? P&G’s femvertising meeting hegemonic masculinity This thesis uses Feminist Critical Discourse Analysis and Multimodal Discourse Analysis to study how a house of brands, like Procter & Gamble (P&G), handles femvertising, that it is produced by its own brands. The paper analyses the phenomenon using examples from commercials that belong to P&G’s #WeSeeEqual campaign and the controversial commercial video from Gillette The best men can be. One research questions served as a guideline for this project: What characterizes the femvertising pieces targeting women and/or men, produced by the house of brands P&G for their brands Gillette, Fairy, Ariel and Always? In order to be able to study this phenomenon, the empirical materials that will be analysed are: 1) #ShareTheLoad by Ariel, 2) #MakeItFair by Fairy, 3) #LikeAGirl by Always, and 4) The best men can be by Gillette. As theoretical framework this paper uses Foucault’s theory of power and the theory of hegemonic masculinity by Connell & Messerschmidt. What was identified after analysing the data was that the different commercials always include hegemonic masculinity somehow in their content, in some it is attacked directly, in others in a subtle and implicit way and in others just excused or justified. Keyword: Femvertising, Feminist Critical Discourse Analysis, Hegemonic masculinity, Multimodal Discourse Analysis, P&G, Power, Foucault.

  • Abstract Rereading Female Bodies in Little Snow-White
    ABSTRACT REREADING FEMALE BODIES IN LITTLE SNOW-WHITE: INDEPENDENCE AND AUTONOMY VERSUS SUBJUGATION AND INVISIBILITY By Dianne Graf In this thesis, the circumstances and events that motivate the Queen to murder Snow-White are reexamined. Instead of confirming the Queen as wicked, she becomes the protagonist. The Queen’s actions reveal her intent to protect her physical autonomy in a patriarchal controlled society, as well as attempting to prevent patriarchy from using Snow-White as their reproductive property.

  • Vicks® Launches New Nature Fusion™ Line
    VICKS® LAUNCHES NEW NATURE FUSION™ LINE Nature Fusion cough, cold and flu products offer the powerful symptom relief, plus real honey for taste Cincinnati, OH, August 11, 2011 – Procter & Gamble’s (NYSE: PG) Vicks brand announced today that it is launching Nature Fusion, a new line of over-the-counter cold, cough and flu relief products that combine powerful symptom relief with real honey for flavor. What inspired Vicks Nature Fusion? Research shows that consumers increasingly desire more natural and less artificial ingredients in their over-the- counter medications, so Vicks is answering the call with Nature Fusion, which joins the powerful science of symptom relief with the best of nature. Beginning with the original Vicks products launched in 1894 which contained Eucalyptus oils from Australia and menthol from Japan, Vicks has a long history of using ingredients inspired by nature. Now, Vicks is continuing this tradition by blending real honey for flavor in new Vicks Nature Fusion. “For more than 120 years, Vicks has helped people feel better by providing proven treatments to deliver effective relief from cold, cough and flu symptoms,” says Andy Cipra, Vicks Brand Manager. “Today, with the launch of Nature Fusion, Vicks is proud to offer the same powerful medicine now flavored with real honey.” Honey has often been favored as a flavor, but lately it has been getting even more buzz as consumers increasingly seek natural ingredients in the products they use. The addition of honey provides aesthetic properties such as flavor, sweetness and thickness. Nature Fusion is also free from alcohol and gluten.

  • Adaptation from Fairy Tale to Film III
    White as Snow: Adaptation from Fairy Tale to Film By Corina Brown Bachelor of Arts and Media This Thesis is presented for the Honours degree of Media in Screen Production at Murdoch University Declaration: I declare that this thesis is my own account of my research and contains, as its main content, work that has not previously been submitted for a degree at any tertiary educational institution, including Murdoch. Signed: _____________________________ Full Name: Corina Brown Student Number: 31249445 Date: 1/11/2016 II Abstract Most research into adaptation studies focuses on comparison between the source text and the filmic adaptation. Conversely, this dissertation looks at the adaptation process in practice, following the process of adapting a fairy tale to the screen from conceptualisation to the final film. To do this, this dissertation examines the generic context of the fairy tale adaptation, the screen-writing process, and the film-making process in order to understand how filmic intertextuality and extratextuality can influence the role the source text plays in a filmic adaptation. This dissertation includes an exegesis, the original fairy tale, the final White as Snow locked script, and the final film, all of which need to be read and understood for the purposes of this study. These elements examine the process of the filmic adaptation of a popular fairy tale, “Little Snow White” by the Brothers Grimm. The significance of this research lies in the practical approach, analysing the adaptation process from the perspective of the film-maker, rather than a simple comparison of the source text and the final product of the film.

  • 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.
