  • The Real Heroine of Fairy Tales Donna
    Donna Lee Fields 264 Rhymes with ‘Bitch’: The Real Heroine of Fairy Tales Donna Lee Fields (Universitat International Valenciana) Profiling. Usually associated with criminal or racial profiling. Police detaining suspects on the basis of skin color, race, dress, or apparently suspicious actions. Stored in their minds from repetitive briefings, they have specific images and a list of characteristics that direct them towards singling out probable provocateurs, people they are paid and sworn to get off the street. But what seems, at first, like a reasonable missive can quickly become macabre. Our minds flit to the only some of the repercussions this profiling has caused, such as the thousands of citizens of Japanese descent singled out and imprisoned for years in concentration camps in the United States during World War II, the treatment of the French police toward Algerian immigrants in the 1960s; the photos of Steve Biko and Rodney King after being brutalized by police; the daily battle between the British and the Irish, and of course, any man of Middle Eastern descent in this day and age, who needs to think twice about entering most public buildings. Profiling is, in fact, another way of saying “prejudice”, though connotation is everything in this age of “military action” versus “war”, and “permissible force” rather than “physical abuse”. We are all guilty of profiling and much more than we may want to admit. We judge people on the basis of their title, their clothes, their skin color, their professions. And though many of us will be fortunate enough never to be on the wrong side of its violent consequences, we are programmed and influenced by its long-reaching tentacles, though we be conscious of it or not.

LEARN HOW LARGE PRINT SUPPORTS LITERACY SEE HOW SUBTLE DIFFERENCES LEAD TO BIG ADVANTAGES FIND OUT WHICH TITLES MADE YOUR PEERS’ TOP PICKS DISCOVER HOW LARGE PRINT CAN ENCOURAGE STRIVING READERS When reading feels like a laborious process, young readers can become disengaged and discouraged. Make it less so with large print. At Thorndike Press®, we look for standout middle grade and young adult debuts, along with award-winning, tried-and-true classics. Among a collection of nearly 400 large print books and counting, we strive to achieve a mix of high-interest, popular titles available for self-selected reading, and titles that already have content or curriculum built around them. Large print provides striving readers with options. To avoid the stigma that can sometimes be associated with large print, the books have the same artwork on the cover as the standard print edition and are not labeled as “large print” on the cover. Many titles focus on diversity—recognizing the fact that young readers want to identify culturally with what they are reading. The bottom line is that striving readers want to read what their peers are reading. Why not augment your current print reading program by offering at least 10% of your collection in multiple formats? You can introduce young readers to the concept of large print with a multiformat display or read-aloud session. Explore this catalog to see all Thorndike Press has to offer.

Rapunzel Illustration Rapunzel and Witches at the 1978 East German BrandAuthorAuthor Unknown, but collected by the brothers GrimmCountryGermanyLanguageGermanGenreFairy fairy tale1812Media typePrint Rapunzel (/rəˈpʌnzəl/; German : ʁaˈpʊn͡tsəl) is a German fairy tale recorded by the Brothers Grimm and first published in 1812 as part of Children's and Household Tales (KHM 12). The story of the Brothers Grimm is an adaptation of the tale of Rapunzel Friedrich Schulz (1790), which was translated by Persette (1698) by Charlotte-Rose de Causmont de La Force, which itself was influenced by an earlier Italian tale, Petrosinella (1634), jambattista Basile. The ultimate source of this tale is the Persian tale of Hall and Rudab from Shahnameh of the 11th Century (The Book of Kings). The tale is classified as Aarne-Thompson Type 310 (Girl in the Tower). Its plot was used and parodied in various media. His most famous line, Rapunzel, Rapunzel, under the guise of hair, is an idiom in popular culture. The Origin of the Tale was published by the Brothers Grimm in Kinder und Hausmurchen in 1812. Their source was a story published by Friedrich Schultz (1762-1798) in his Kleine Romane (1790). Earlier versions include Giambattista Basile's Petrosinella (1634/36), Mademoiselle de la Force Persnett (1698), or Johann Gustav Busching's Das M'der padde a few months before Grimm's version of The Volks-Sagene, Mehrren and Legendden (1812).
