【Course Objectives】

Learning how to critically interpret the literary fairy tale and write a coherent literary analysis.

【Course Contents】

Folklorist and literary translator, Jack Zipes, writes: “Each innovative retelling and rewriting of a well-known tale in the cultural heritage is an independent human act seeking to align itself with the original utopian impulse of the first-told tale.” And by tracing the parallel structures of the fairy tale—across culture, time, and place—these “utopian impulses” can be analysed for their narrative dimensions and ideological contents. In this course, we will be reading and comparing works by Straparola, Basile, Perrault, and the Grimm brothers (among others), with the intention of using these works as a source for understanding how the fairy tale serves as a blueprint for social structures, cultural logic, and systems of morality.
