What are fairy tales? Origins, Functions and Contemporary Existence

Learning targets I can investigate the relationship between media and historical/ contemporary cultures. I can critically discuss ideologies present in media. I can articulate how media messages influence and manipulate media.

The Origins & Function of Fairy Tales Intended for adult audiences. Not for children, Not to explain natural natural phenomena or involve religion (myths/folk tales), Not about real people (legends).

Passed down through generations via oral storytelling tradition Originally from Europe, ca. 1600s Victorian writers who revised tales for children: –Hans Christian Anderson (Danish) –Charles Perrault (French) –Grimm Brothers (German)

Form / Characteristics Magic Talking animals/ inanimate objects Unknown time (“Once upon a time”) Malevolent forces, often horribly punished. Good versus Evil. Groups of 3 Beginning-Middle-End

Little Red Riding Hood Who is Little Red Riding Hood? What is her story? How do you know her story? How does her story end? Do you like this story? Why/Why not?

Little Red Riding Hood Class reading of Perrault’s LRRH Roald Dahl’s LRRH Pairs – Compare and contrast Perrault and Dahl’s versions of LHHR What ideologies are present?
