  • The Black and the White Bride: Dualism, Gender, and Bodies in European Fairy Tales
    Jeana Jorgensen: The Black and the White Bride: Dualism, Gender, and Bodies in European Fairy Tales The Black and the White Bride: Dualism, Gender, and Bodies in European Fairy Tales Jeana Jorgensen Butler University* Fairy tales are one of the most important folklore genres in Western culture, spanning literary and oral cultures, folk and elite cultures, and print and mass media forms. As Jack Zipes observes: ‘The cultural evolution of the fairy tale is closely bound historically to all kinds of storytelling and different civilizing processes that have undergirded the formation of nation-states.’143 Studying fairy tales thus opens a window onto European history and cultures, ideologies, and aesthetics. My goal here is to examine how fairy-tale characters embody dualistic traits, in regard both to gender roles and to other dualisms, such as the divide between the mind and body, and the body’s interior and exterior (as characterized by the skin). These and other dualisms have been theorized from many quarters. As Elizabeth Grosz states: ‘Feminists and philosophers seem to share a common view of the human subject as a being made up of two dichotomously opposed characteristics: mind and body, thought and extension, reason and passion, psychology and biology.’144 Further, ‘Dichotomous thinking necessarily hierarchizes and ranks the two polarized terms so that one becomes the privileged term and the other its suppressed, subordinated, negative counterpart.’145 Thus, any discussion of dualisms is automatically also a discussion of power relations. This article begins by summarizing the trajectory of dualism in Western intellectual history and culture, including how dualism fits within folkloristic and feminist scholarship.

  • "Fathers and Daughters"
    "Fathers and Daughters" Critic: James M. McGlathery Source: Fairy Tale Romance: The Grimms, Basile, and Perrault, pp. 87-112. Urbana: University of Illinois Press, 1991. [(essay date 1991) In the following essay, McGlathery explores the erotic implications of the father-daughter relationship in the romantic folktales of the Brothers Grimm, Giambattista Basile, and Charles Perrault, highlighting common plot scenarios.] As the stories discussed thus far show, emotional involvement between parents and children is a frequent object of portrayal in folktales. That this is especially true of the romantic tale should come as no surprise, for in love plots generally the requisite hindrance to the fulfillment of young desire often takes the form of parental objection or intervention. There are surprises to be found here, however. In particular, the romantic folktale offers the possibility of hinting, with seeming innocence, at erotically tinged undercurrents in the relationship between parent and child that do not lend themselves to tasteful direct portrayal. Fairy tale romance often depicts the child's first experience of leaving home and venturing out on its own, usually in connection with choosing a mate. In the stories of the brother and sister type, resistance to the taking of this step is reflected in a desire to return to the bosom of the family or, failing that, to retain the devoted company of one's siblings. Thus, we have seen how Hansel and Gretel, while prepared to survive together in the forest if need be are overjoyed at being able to live with their father, and how the sister in "The Seven Ravens" succeeds in restoring her brothers to human form and bringing them home with her.

It has been accepted for inclusion in Electronic Theses and Dissertations by an authorized administrator of Digital Commons @ ACU. ABSTRACT Fairy tales hold the power to influence societies and to challenge societal injustices, and the story of Cinderella exemplifies both of these roles. In this study, I conduct a rhetorical analysis of four different versions of the Cinderella narrative: Charles Perrault’s “Cendrillon,” the Brothers Grimm’s “Ascenputtel,” Anne Sexton’s “Cinderella,” and Disney’s Cinderella (2015). I examine Perrault’s “Cendrillon” and the Grimms’ “Aschenputtel” using constitutive rhetoric. This theory operates around the basic premise that rhetoric holds the power to aid in the shaping of societies. While analyzing “Cendrillon” and “Aschenputtel,” I specifically look for themes of classism and nationalism, respectively. I then examine Sexton’s “Cinderella” and Disney’s Cinderella (2015) using feminist standpoint theory as my theoretical lens.

Pardis Karami Nejad MA scholar in English Department Vali-e-asr University. Rafsanajn Rafsanjan. Iran [email protected] Esmaeil Zohdi Ph.D. Faculty member Vali-e-asr University. Rafsanajn Rafsanjan. Iran [email protected] Abstract: By the advent of technology and mass media, fairy tales appeared in animation forms. Walt Disney and Dream works companies are the pioneers of animated films industry in recent century. They masterfully used different fairy tales to make remarkable animations. As characterization is an important component of any fairy tale, in animations likewise, the spot light is mainly on characters. These known companies made the written heroes and heroines visual. Something that all these characters have in common is beauty but what the beauty is, is our concern. Two of the most renowned heroines of these fairy tales and animations are Cinderella and Fiona. Similar to other changes in history, beauty has also changed its concept from physical to moral. Cinderella was the protagonist of previous generations, a beautiful girl whose rights and belongings have been taken away by her cruel step-mother and sisters, is rescued by the prince only because she was physically beautiful and it was the time when children realized that since she is married to the richest boy in town, she would live happily ever after! Is physical beauty an essence for happiness?! Nowadays children are not amused by beautiful appearances but by confident characters who fight for their lives with love.

  • Hair Imagery in Grimm's Fairy Tales
    HAIR IMAGERY IN GRIMM'S FAIRY TALES A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE GRADUATE DIVISION OF THE UNIVERSITY OF HAWAII IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS IN EUROPEAN LANGUAGES AND LITERATURE (GERMAN) DECEMBER 1994 By Andrea Linda Deslauriers Thesis Committee: Jürgen Sang, Chairperson William Scherer Jean Toyama We certify that we have read this thesis and that, in our opinion, it is satisfactory in scope and quality as a thesis for the degree of Master of Arts in European Languages and Literature (German). THESIS COMMITTEE ________________________ Chairperson ________________________ ________________________ ii © Copyright 1994 by Andrea Linda Deslauriers iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS My thankfulness is expressed to all who helped me in various ways to write this thesis. Special thanks to the members of my thesis committee, Dr. Jürgen Sang, Dr. William Scherer, and Dr. Jean Toyama who have encouraged this project with time, heart, and mind. To my Teaching Assistant sisters, Susie, Ann, Sue, and Yuka who have always been helpful and positive. To my dear husband André who has supported me with understanding and love. iv ABSTRACT This thesis analyzed hair imagery in seventy-two out of two hundred and fifty fairy tales by the brothers Grimm. Hair imagery was categorized into poetic form-elements: the direct image, the idiom, the simile, the metaphor, the symbol, and the motif. In addition, hair symbolism found within the context of fifteen fairy tales was interpreted by using the Jungian psychological method of interpretation. It was determined that hair imagery occurs distinctly with certain themes that connect hair with its meaning for human life.
