Once Upon a Time, There Were Two Girls Named Evie Queen and Sophia the Queen "Hear ye, hear ye!" cried the royal town crier. "The Queen would like to announce that she has a new opening in the castle," There was uproar of commotion in the crowd. I was a part of that commotion. Who doesn't want a job in the castle? You could get a chance to hang out with the Queen, Sophia White! Everyone was anxiously waiting to see what the job was. Clearing his throat he cried, "The new job opening will be the Queen's Royal Beautician." Oh my gosh! I am an expert on everything there has to do with beauty. Whether it's nails, hair, makeup, clothes, accessories, or even beauty tips, I was the perfect person to get the job. The next day, the Queen had auditions to see who would be her next beautician. I definitely was going to audition. I wasn't surprised to see all of the people there. There were mostly females, but I saw a few males here and there. After waiting for literally seven hours, I was next. " it's show time," I thought in my head. For I knew I had to impress her to get .this job. "Miss, a---," The Queen's royal announcer was fumbling through papers to find my name. "Ah, yes, Miss Evie Queen, please choose one of these beauty objects on the table and demonstrate what to do on this here mannequin." he said sounding very bored. "Yes, sir," I said in sort of a whisper. I didn't know which one to choose. There must have been hundreds of beauty supplies for me to choose from. I finally decided what to pick after I scanned the supplies. I grabbed the most beautiful lipstick "\,.. -- ...._ - ,, I had ever seen. It was so red it almost looked like blood. I applied it to the mannequin very carefully knowing that if I make one little mistake, I was out. Once I was done the Queen starred at me with a curious expression on her face. Then finally she spoke. I have never heard the Queen speak but I was surprised when she did. "Miss Queen, why did you pick that lipstick?" she said with her very, calm and curious voice. "I don't know, I guess it stood out to me the most," I said hoping that was the explanation she was looking for. "Thank you, you may go," she said with a smile. I couldn't tell if she was smiling because she liked me, or if she was smiling because she had one less person to interview. I was so disappointed. I thought she would choose me right away. Maybe I wasn't fit for this particular job. The sound of the town crier's horn woke me up. I quickly got dressed to see what the commotion was about. "Hear ye, hear ye," he said as usually. I don't know how many times I've heard that before. You know, they should really get him a new instrument to blow, because that one is seriously annoying. "The Queen-would like to announce her new beautician," he said-out of breath because of his annoying blowing. I was over joyed; I thought she would tell you right away if you were fit for the job. I didn't know that she would announce it today. Everyone Wf!S smiling and chattering about how it was going to be them. "Settle down everyone," he said annoyed. "Our new beautician is ... Evie Queen!" the crier yelled. I couldn't believe I was the new beautician. They picked me! The crier took me to the castle faster than I could have flown. I immediately got to work. The Queen came in to see what I was working on. Honestly, I wasn't really working on anything, I was just pretending. I mean I didn't know what to do. If you were to see this room, you wouldn't believe your eyes. I think she has more beauty products that all of the stores in our village. "Evie, do my hair," the Queen demanded. Even though she didn't say please, I didn't take it personally. I probably would do the same if I had servants waiting on me hand and foot. "Yes your grace," I replied quietly. '"Do speak up, I can hardly hear you," she exclaimed. "Yes your grace," I said a little louder. I started on her medium length black hair. It was the smoothest thing I've ever touched in my entire life! I couldn't believe this was her actual hair. I would do anything to have her hair. "Evie, I want to get to know you since you're going to be here forever," she demanded. I didn't really think about being here forever, but I was happy she wanted to get to 'know a peasant girl like me. "What do you want to know?" I asked. "Everything," she said "Everything? Well, urn, where do I start? My life isn't very exciting." "Oh? What about your ancestors? Are there any exciting stories about them?" "Well, my mom owned her own cosmetics shop. My dad was a farmer, my-" "Where are your parents?" she said cutting me off. "They have passed away, your grace," I whispered sadly. "Oh, I'm so sorry. My deepest respects, Evie," she said with compassion. The Queen isn't actually a brat like I thought she would be. She is actually quite nice. "Do go on," she demanded again. "Where was I? Oh yes, my grandma was a Queen, actually. I never really met her, but I've heard magnificent stories. "Well how fascinating? That is really something special," "Yeah, I guess it is," I said realizing it actually was something pretty cool about my past. "What about you, my Queen? Would you mind sharing any interesting stories about your past?" "Well, my parents were just the King and Queen," she said acting like that wasn't a big deal. "My grandma was actually a Queen too. But, she has a very interesting story," "Do tell me what it is, your grace," I asked hoping I ' wouldn't get thrown in the dungeon for asking her such a personal question. "Okay ify~u really must know. My grandma's name was Snow White. She was such a beautiful girl. With her ruby red lips, and her pale, snow skin. She was a princess. Her mother was Queen but past away along with her father. She was left with her evil stepmother. Her evil stepmother wanted Snow White killed because she wanted to be the most beautiful and fairest one of all. The Evil Queen sent her huntsman to kill her in the woods. He couldn't do it of course, because the huntsman was a very good man. He told her to run away as fast as she could as far away from the Queen as possible. She ran far, far, far away until she found a little cottage. She went inside to see if she could take shelter there for the night. She didn't find anyone there, so she thought it was a nice place to sleep. After cleaning up a little bit, she took a nap upstairs in some very tiny beds. When she awoke she found seven dwarfs hovering over her. They were very nice to her, and let her stay as long as she cleaned and cooked for them. Snow White made seven tiny, new friends that day." "Do you remember the huntsman?" the Queen asked. "Yes. What happened to him?" I asked. "The huntsman brought back the insides of a pig and faked them for Snow Whites. At first the Evil Queen believed him, but .. she soon found out that wasn't true. She made a plan to find Snow White and get rid of her herself with a poison apple. The Evil Queen' whipped up a disguise faster than you could say "apple pie." She found Snow White with the help of her magical mirror and sought out to give her the poison apple. She found the cottage and peeked through the window. She found Snow White cleaning for the dwarfs to surprise them when they got home. The Evil Queen knocked on the door and told Snow White that she picked this apple especially for the most beautiful girl in the land. Snow White was flattered and took a big bite. She dies of course. The dwarfs put her in a glass coffin and decorated it beautifully. A prince came by three days later, and kissed her. She arose from the dead, and they lived happily ever after." "Wait, hold up your majesty. What was the Evil Queen's real name?" "Gritnhilde I believe," she said trying to remember. I was trying to decide whether or not to tell the Queen, the one with all of the power, the one person who can kill me with a snap of her fingers, that the "Evil Queen" was tny grandmother. My hero, my role model, my grandma was the "Evil Queen". I knew what I had to do. I had to do the right thing. "Your majesty, there's something I need to tell you," I 'I "What is it Evie? Did you do something wrong with my hai.r? Oh no! Evie, did you do something wrong with my hair? Answer me!" "No, nothing is wrong with your hair, it's as glamorous as ever" ' "Oh good, I was very worried for a second there," "Any ways, I need to tell you something," "Okay, go on with it then," ·"Well, HOW COULD YOU INSULT MY GRANDMOTHER LIKE THAT?" I screamed a loud enough for the Queen to hang me right there on the spot.

  • Snow White: Evil Witches Professor Joanna Bourke 19 November 2020
    Snow White: Evil Witches Professor Joanna Bourke 19 November 2020 Each generation invents evil. And evil women have incited our imaginations since Eve first plucked that apple. One of my favourites evil women is the Evil Queen in the story of Snow White. She is the archetypical ageing woman: post-menopausal and demonised as the ugly hag, malicious crone, and depraved witch. She is evil, obscene, and threatening because of her familiarity with the black arts, her skills in mixing poisonous potions, and her possession of a magic mirror. She is also sexual and aware: like Eve, she has tasted of the Tree of Knowledge. Her story first roused the imaginations of the Brothers Grimm in 1812 and 1819: the second version stripped the story of its ribald connotations while retaining (and even augmenting) its sadism. Famously, “Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs” was set to song by Disney in 1937, a film that is often hailed as the “seminal” version. Interestingly, the word “seminal” itself comes from semen, so is encoded male. Its exploitation by Disney has helped the company generate over $48 billion dollars a year through its movies, theme parks, and memorabilia such as collectible cards, colouring-in books, “princess” gowns and tiaras, dolls, peaked hats, and mirrors. Snow White and the Evil Queen appears in literature, music, dance, theatre, fine arts, television, comics, and the internet. It remains a powerful way to castigate powerful women – as during Hillary Clinton’s bid for the White House, when she was regularly dubbed the Witch. This link between powerful women and evil witchery has made the story popular amongst feminist storytellers, keen to show how the story shapes the way children and adults think about gender and sexuality, race and class.

  • Characters' Actions and Reactions
    Dear Family Member, Welcome to our next unit of study, “Characters’ Actions and Reactions.” We are beginning our second unit of study in the Benchmark Advance program. As a reminder, each three-week unit features one topic. As with the previous unit, I am providing suggested activities you and your child can do together at home to build on the work we’re doing in class. In our second unit of study, “Characters’ Actions and Reactions,” your child will explore how characters drive the action of a plot. For example, in the fairy tale “Snow White Meets the Huntsman,” students discover the lengths that the queen is willing to go to destroy Snow White, all due to her envy and vanity. Your child will also explore some of the morals and messages in Aesop’s Fables, where are character-driven stories meant to teach children centuries ago how to behave and lead their own lives. his will help students begin thinking about how they come across as characters in their own lives, with actions and reactions similar to those of characters they read about. he selections include a variety of genres, including fables, fairy tales, fantasy, animal fantasy, and informational texts. I’m looking forward to this exciting unit, exploring with your children the wide range of characters we encounter in literature. It will be fun to discover how the children connect with the various characters as well as recognize the historical signifcance of some of our favorite children’s tales. As always, should you have any questions about our reading program or about your child’s progress, please don’t hesitate to contact me.

Not only has it been translated into numerous languages around the world, but it has also appeared in several formats since the nineteenth century. However, since 2000, an increase in both fi lm and television adaptations of fairy tales has served to retell this classic tales from a variety of different perspectives. In the numerous Snow White adaptations, formal and thematic modifi cations are often introduced, taking the story created by Disney in 1937 as an infl uential reference but altering its narrative in diverse ways. In the case of Spain, there are two contemporary versions of Snow White that participate in this trend: a fi lm adaptation called Blancanieves (Pablo Berger, 2012) and a television adaptation, included as an episode of the fantasy series Cu é ntame un cuento (Marcos Osorio Vidal, 99781501351228_pi-316.indd781501351228_pi-316.indd 224949 116-Nov-206-Nov-20 220:17:500:17:50 250 250 SNOW WHITE AND THE SEVEN DWARFS 2014).

  • Redefining Gender in Disney Films from the 20Th to 21St Century Shrien Alshabasy SUNY New Paltz Honors Thesis 2018-2019
    Alshabasy 1 "A Whole New World": Redefining Gender in Disney Films from the 20th to 21st Century Shrien Alshabasy SUNY New Paltz Honors Thesis 2018-2019 Alshabasy 2 The Disney Dynasty is as familiar to American culture as apple pie. Sitting on land that is twice the size of Manhattan, the Disney Kingdom has expanded over the years to create a whole new world; a world seriously considered by cultural theorists like Baudrillard, as a simulacrum, a symbol so close to reality that it becomes hyperreality. Before water parks and resort hotels, before Disney bought out the land of orange groves and walnut trees in Anaheim, California, the Magic Kingdom began its conquest on American ideology. The Walt Disney Company started in 1923 as “The Disney Brothers Cartoon Studio,” and churned out films that embodied American ideals. Oftentimes, these films were set in 19th century rural America and featured an American hero -- usually Mickey Mouse, who could outwork and challenge any enemy big or small with his bravery. An embodiment of American ideals, Disney films became loved and endeared by audiences during morally depleting times, like the Depression years (“How Disney Came to Define What Constitutes the American Experience”). Audiences latched onto these ideals, seemingly stable, even when external factors were not. In 1938, Disney shifted gears into feature films with his vision of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. Although many had their doubts, after three years of work Snow White was released and it quickly became the highest grossing film of all time. Feature films became the money makers for Disney and the start of consumer fascination with Disney culture (“Disney Animation Is Closing the Book on Fairy Tales”).

  • Little Red Riding Hood
    LLiittttllee RReedd RRiiddiinngg HHoooodd Brothers Grimm Once upon a time there was a dear little girl who was loved by everyone who looked at her, but most of all by her grandmother, and there was nothing that she would not have given to the child. Once she gave her a little riding hood of red velvet, which suited her so well that she would never wear anything else; so she was always called 'Little Red Riding Hood.' One day her mother said to her: 'Come, Little Red Riding Hood, here is a piece of cake and a bottle of wine; take them to your grandmother, she is ill and weak, and they will do her good. Set out before it gets hot, and when you are going, walk nicely and quietly and do not run off the path, or you may fall and break the bottle, and then your grandmother will get nothing; and when you go into her room, don't forget to say, "Good morning", and don't peep into every corner before you do it.' 'I will take great care,' said Little Red Riding Hood to her mother, and gave her hand on it. The grandmother lived out in the wood, half a league from the village, and just as Little Red Riding Hood entered the wood, a wolf met her. Red Riding Hood did not know what a wicked creature he was, and was not at all afraid of him. 'Good day, Little Red Riding Hood,' said he. 'Thank you kindly, wolf.' 'Where do you go so early, Little Red Riding Hood?' 'To my grandmother's.' 'What have you got in your apron?' 'Cake and wine; yesterday was baking-day, so poor sick grandmother is to have something good, to make her stronger.' 'Where does your grandmother live, Little Red Riding Hood?' 'A good quarter of a league farther on in the wood; her house stands under the three large oak-trees, the nut-trees are just below; you surely must know it,' replied Little Red Riding Hood.

  • Feminism and Magic in Snow White
    Dittmeier 1 Feminism and Magic in Snow White Magic is something that has always been very prevalent in fairy tales. Many fairy tales include young women—complacent, innocent, and invariably beautiful young women—who are either terrorized by an evil witch, helped out of a bad circumstance by a fairy godmother, or both. They are expected to handle their misfortune gracefully and show kindness even to their enemies, which they are often rewarded for, and generally this reward is marriage. However, some of these fairy tales can be seen through a more feminist lens. Magical fairy tale women do not have to just be either evil or the bumbling fairy godmother who helps the heroine get her marriage reward. Snow White, for example, has more control over her story than may be apparent. There is a hidden feminist ideology in Snow White that we can see through Snow White’s use of magic. Witches—women who can use magic—are, in modern times, a feminist symbol. The witch is a woman who has her own power, and in the case of some stories, Macbeth, for example, they have power to drive the plot (Guadagnino, 2018). The witch can be a positive symbol for a woman who has her own agency. If we look closely, we can see clues that indicate that Snow White is not only a witch, but that she is using her own power to drive her story along. Magic is evident from the very beginning of Snow White. Snow White’s mother is sewing by the open window, and she pricks her finger.

  • 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.

  • Subcultural Appropriation of Disney Normative Characters in Countercultural Performance Responses Brady Mcdonough, Communicating Arts Dr
    Subcultural Appropriation of Disney Normative Characters in Countercultural Performance Responses Brady McDonough, Communicating Arts Dr. Alison Wielgus, Department of Communicating Arts University of Wisconsin Superior Introduction Walt Disney is remembered fondly as “Uncle Walt” who re-told fairy tales in ways that were less gruesome than their originals and moved audiences to laughter and tears. Disney’s hard upbringing led to his strict personal belief system that reinforced proper behavior and a heterosexual, nuclear family structure. Fantasy was Disney’s favorite escape as a child, and he loved telling stories as an adult so much that he made it a wildly successful business. Starting in 1923 as Disney Brothers Cartoon Studio, Walt Disney began with animated shorts before eventually moving into feature-length productions. The power to reach audiences comes with the ability to convey a worldview to the public. Disney used his adaptations of fairy tales from authors such as the Brothers Grimm, Charles Perrault, and Hans Christian Anderson to entertain and teach children and adults what the perfect fantasy world could be. Disney’s versions of classic fairy tales supported a white, heterosexual, Judeo-Christian worldview known as heteronormativity. This heteronormative culture maintains a dominant status in American society called hegemony. Dominant cultures often inspire the formation of subcultures whose members do not fit the hegemonic normative culture. This paper will incorporate the work of Dick Hebdige and Judith Butler to explain subcultural creation and modes of response to hegemony, specifically through drag’s appropriation of characters. Character traits being normalized or vilified is in issue of semiotics, meaning the signs of characters and traits signify one as “good” or “evil” dependent on their performance of certain characteristics.
