is for the Knight, White that is.
Hans My Hedgehog by Grimm Bros
'Where the Wild Things Are' by Maurice Sendak
The Little Mermaid
- original- Hans Christian Anderson- Disney
- Walt changed it to make it happier, children probably wouldn't have liked it as much if they wouldn't have lived happily ever after
- But we say: give em the original, even if it's horrible
- "I have room to contradict myself"~ Walt Whitman
- I personally like both the happy and the sad, the happy because it has the song 'Les Poisson' and the sad because it's more realistic
- The continuing stories of: 'The Frog Prince Cont.' and 'Little Mermaid 2'
- realistic novel- sad and 'real life' is low mimetic
- all stories end in some sort of death
- "comedy is a transcendence of tragedy" ~Dr. Sexson
- "You have to earn your happy ending" ~Dr. Sexson
Cinderella:
- Cinderella (low to high) is the reverse of tragedy (high to low)
- ashypelt
- John Millington Synge: 'Irish Playwright'
- where do these stories come from? How did they get into everyone's heads?
- migration- oral tradition
- archetypes and collective unconscious
Cupid and Psyche:
- Venus: Aphrodite/ Rome and Greek
