Every day, he proudly strolled along the shore, spreading his magnificent feathers whenever he met another bird. The giant fan full of colours and patterns shimmering in the sunshine was admired by everyone who lived nearby. When there was no admirer in sight, the fowl himself feasted his eyes on his reflection on the lake. Sometimes he even kicked a pebble into the water to ruffle the surface and admire his own beauty in movement. Over time his pride turned into arrogance and haughtiness. In his eyes, other birds were not beautiful enough to be worth talking to or, heaven forbid, pal around with. Everyone around was pretty much irked by it, so the other birds came up with a plan to play a joke on the puffed-up fowl. The task was given to a crane, the most mundane and unexceptional bird compared to the peacock, what with his scrawny body, grey colour and skinny legs. Far and wide, there was no bird so dull and forgettable as the crane. A beautiful morning came. Sparrows were chirping and the sun was shining. Once the crane noticed the peacock admiring his own reflection and smoothing out his colourful feathers, he set out for a little walk to meet the vain fowl. When they met, the peacock instantly started mocking the crane. “Oh, crane, why don’t you do something with those feathers of yours! Don’t 3 THE PEACOCK AND THE CRANE you wish to look at least a bit more interesting? Look how boring and drab you are! Look at that dismal, bland colour, that drooping tail, those ridiculously bony legs,” he scoffed at the crane, knowing that his beauty must have been even more apparent now that he was standing right next to the grey bird. But the crane just kept walking patiently around, even coming back a few times to give the peacock enough opportunity to add some more of his snide remarks. After some time the crane paused for a bit and said: “You may have the most beautiful feathers in the world, and sure enough, everyone who meets you has to admire your tail, no doubt. But I have never seen you fly. I guess that’s because your feathers are as weak and fragile as they are beautiful. They could never keep you up in the air since they would break easily. My feathers may be grey as dust, but they are also strong enough to carry me high into the sky and wherever I want. You, however, are doomed to stay on the ground forever.” And as he finished, he fluttered his wings and disappeared. 4 PELOPS A war started and the gods cast Pelops’s father into the deepest abyss of the Underworld and threw Pelops himself out of Olympus. The young man settled in Greece, and even though he was still very young, he decided to get married, choosing the beautiful daughter of king Oenomaus, Hippodamia. But many young men from all over the country desired her hand, and so her father announced that he would give his daughter only to a man that could defeat him in a chariot race. Those who would lose, though, would pay with their lives. These were the rules of the race: right after the start, the king would first sacrifice a ram to Zeus and only then he would begin pursuing the suitor. If he managed to catch up despite the suitor’s head start, he could pierce him with a spear. The suitors viewed the rules as too easy given the head start and the fact that the king himself was already very weak and very old. One by one, they arrived at the palace, bowed to Hippodamia and asked her father for her hand. The king politely received each one of them, gave them rest and refreshment and had a beautiful chariot with four horses called quadriga readied. After the starting signal with a suitor already on the track, the king would first make for the altar and set off on the race only after sacrificing a ram. But every single time, his 5 PELOPS horses, faster than the wind, caught up with the suitors long before reaching the finish line. By the time it was Pelops’s turn, twelve suitors had already lost their lives. Knowing the fate of his predecessors, Pelops set off for the seashore on the eve of the race where he called on Poseidon, the ruler of all seas: “Oh, mighty god! Please help me beat the king. Give me strength, so that he can never catch up with my chariot and pierce me with his spear. Show me the fastest route and grant me victory.” The water started boiling, a thunder roared and a beautiful golden chariot drawn by four winged horses emerged from the waves. Pelops expressed his thanks and got into the chariot. The divine horses were faster than the wind. Even though king Oenomaus saw that the new suitor arrived in a golden chariot pulled by divine horses, he did not take fright and gave Pelops a head start just like the other suitors. When he sacrificed a ram to Zeus, he got into his chariot and set off in pursuit after Pelops. The young man was only a stone’s throw away from the finish line when Oenomaus finally caught up with him and drew his spear, swinging it to deliver a mortal blow to his opponent. But in that moment, Poseidon, who kept a protective eye over Pelops, appeared out of thin air and intervened. The wheels on the king’s chariot tore

    Important Health Warning About Playing Video Games Photosensitive Seizures A very small percentage of people may experience a seizure when exposed to certain visual images, including fl ashing lights or patterns that may appear in video games. Even people who have no history of seizures or epilepsy may have an undiagnosed condition that can cause these “photosensitive epileptic seizures” while watching video games. These seizures may have a variety of symptoms, including lightheadedness, altered vision, eye or face twitching, jerking or shaking of arms or legs, disorientation, confusion, or momentary loss of awareness. Seizures may also cause loss of consciousness or convulsions that can lead to injury from falling down or striking nearby objects. Immediately stop playing and consult a doctor if you experience any of these symptoms. Parents should watch for or ask their children about the above symptoms— children and teenagers are more likely than adults to experience these seizures. The risk of photosensitive epileptic seizures may be reduced by taking the following precautions: Sit farther from the screen; use a smaller screen; play in a well-lit room; and do not play when you are drowsy or fatigued. If you or any of your relatives have a history of seizures or epilepsy, consult a doctor before playing. ESRB Game Ratings The Entertainment Software Rating Board (ESRB) ratings are designed to provide consumers, especially parents, with concise, impartial guidance about the age- appropriateness and content of computer and video games. This information can help consumers make informed purchase decisions about which games they deem suitable for their children and families.

  • Once Upon a Time There Was a Puss in Boots: Hanna Januszewska’S Polish Translation and Adaptation of Charles Perrault’S Fairy Tales
    Przekładaniec. A Journal of Literary Translation 22–23 (2009/2010): 33–55 doi:10.4467/16891864ePC.13.002.0856 Monika Woźniak ONCE UPON A TIME THERE WAS A PUSS IN BOOTS: Hanna Januszewska’s POLISH TRANSLATION AND ADAPTATION OF CHARLES Perrault’s FAIRY TALES Abstract: This article opens with an overview of the Polish reception of fairy tales, Perrault’s in particular, since 1700. The introductory section investigates the long- established preference for adaptation rather than translation of this genre in Poland and provides the framework for an in-depth comparative analysis of the first Polish translation of Mother Goose Tales by Hanna Januszewska, published in 1961, as well as her adaptation of Perrault’s tales ten years later. The examination focuses on two questions: first, the cultural distance between the original French text and Polish fairy- tales, which causes objective translation difficulties; second, the cultural, stylistic and linguistic shifts introduced by Januszewska in the process of transforming her earlier translation into a free adaptation of Perrault’s work. These questions lead not only to comparing the originality or literary value of Januszewska’s two proposals, but also to examining the reasons for the enormous popularity of the adapted version. The faithful translation, by all means a good text in itself, did not gain wide recognition and, if not exactly a failure, it was nevertheless an unsuccessful attempt to introduce Polish readers to the original spirit of Mother Goose Tales. Keywords: translation, adaptation, fairy tale, Perrault, Januszewska The suggestion that Charles Perrault and his fairy tales are unknown in Poland may at first seem absurd, since it would be rather difficult to im- agine anyone who has not heard of Cinderella, Puss in Boots or Sleeping Beauty.

We recommend reading the digital novel after clearing the game. 1 ©2019 IF/CH 2 Story 1 Long ago, several leagues below the surface of the sea, there existed a mighty kingdom of mermaids that stood upon the ocean floor. Among its many inhabitants were the six princesses, all of whom were daughters to the ruler of the kingdom, the King of the Mermaids. When each princess turned fifteen, she was granted permission to depart from the kingdom and visit the world of Man. Most of the princesses enjoyed regaling the youngest sister with whimsical tales of the land above the water, fueling her anticipation for the day she could see that magical world for herself. One day, however, one of the older sisters took the young princess aside to warn her. “Little Mermaid, you must listen to me. The human soul, although sacred enough to be claimed by the gods on the day they cross over to the other side, resides within a fragile, human body. We are not like them. Our bodies return to the ocean as seafoam in the end, but the body of a mermaid can outlive a human’s and live to see three hundred years pass before our time comes.” The elder mermaid tried her best to discourage her sister from leaving her home, but it was of no use. The young princess was fiercely determined to visit the world of Man.

  • About the Book: from Favorites Like "Puss in Boots" and "Goldilocks" To
    FAIRY TALE COMICS – READING GROUP GUIDE About the Book: From favorites like "Puss in Boots" and "Goldilocks" to obscure gems like "The Boy Who Drew Cats," Fairy Tale Comics has something to offer every reader. Seventeen fairy tales are wonderfully adapted and illustrated in comics format by seventeen different cartoonists, including Raina Telgemeier, Brett Helquist, Cherise Harper, and more. Edited by Nursery Rhyme Comics' Chris Duffy, this jacketed hardcover is a beautiful gift and an instant classic. For Discussion: Which of the fairy tale comic retellings is your favorite and why? There are many wicked witches, sneaky stepmothers, and creepy creatures in this book. Which villain of all of the comics do you think is the worst of them all? There are also many smart and cunning heroes, who do you think is the cleverest in all the comics? Who would win in a battle of wits? Many fairy tales teach very valuable lessons, such as the fairy tales of Baba Yaga and The Prince and the Tortoise. What lessons do you think these fairy tales present? Can you think of any other stories, or other fairy tales that teach important lessons? In many of the fairytales the characters find themselves in situations they are not sure how to get out of. What would you do if you were Hansel and Gretel stuck in the evil witch’s house, or sent to Baba Yaga who likes to eat children, or were forced to guess someone’s name like in Rumpelstiltskin? What fairy tales not included in the book would you remake into a comic? What parts of the tale would you keep the same and what would you change? Fairy tales are often made into movies, such as Snow White, Cinderella, and many others.

  • BOURNONVILLE: SOME UNTOLD STORIES by Colin Roth
    BOURNONVILLE: SOME UNTOLD STORIES by Colin Roth ome important things that should have been said about Bournon- Sville have not been: this is an attempt to tackle some of the gaps. Story-telling strategies We have come to take the story-telling strategy of August Bournon- ville and Hans Christian Andersen so much for granted that we don’t notice how distinctive it is in comparison to that which pre- ceded it, or why it made such an impact when they first began to tell their tales. Bournonville and Andersen invite us inside the story and encour- age us to experience the feelings and experiences of the characters as though we were ourselves one of them. Specifically, they do that by presenting their theme within a heaving mass of naturalistic detail from which we have to recognise what matters most: it is our hav- ing to work at seeing, rather than having the artist select the theme and highlight it for us, that makes the narrative strategy so powerful. Moreover, the detail is frequently expressed in direct speech: char- acters come to life and utter exclamations or comments, juxtaposed vigorously and often ironically against the voices of others. It is a different approach to that in which a narrator, often recog- nisably the author’s own voice, tells the story and maintains a more This sentence paraphrases a similar announcement in J.R.R. Tolkien’s Lord of the Rings, one of the great works of 0th century story-telling. This paper was written for and presented in printed form to the Bournville Symposium held at The Rigging Loft, The Opera, Copenhagen, [Takkelloftet, Opera- og Ballethuset, København] 8-9 August 005.
