Anuj Arora July 10‚ 2011 Critique Mark Davis Not so Motherless In Elisabeth Panttaja’s‚ article Cinderella: Not So Morally Superior the author offers an analysis of the classic fairy tale Cinderella. Panttaja’s analysis may be off-putting to some because she describes Cinderella as being crafty and not a princess who is virtuous or patient.

Cinderella As children most of our life lessons were acquired through the simplicity of fair tales. Subliminal messages taught us to always believe in true love and that good wins out over evil.

Over the years fairy tales have evolved making women play many roles‚ some submissive others assertive; the females in Little Snow-White and Beauty and The Beast portray these roles as reflections of the times in which they were created. Written in the 1800’s Little Snow-White personifies the submissive roles assigned to women at the time. In this time period being a housewife is typical

Fairy Tale Comparative Critique Stith Thompson‚ an early-to-mid 1900’s author of “Universality of the Folktale” and modern day writer Maria Tatar‚ author of “An Introduction to Fairy Tales‚” discuss why they think fairy tales have remained popular through the ages.
