Girls’ & boys’

tales As you might know all fairy tales might be

subdivided into the fairy tales for boys and fairy tales for girls.

The tale under investigation is definitely of the last type, it is sure to be intended to teach the girls morality and behaviour.

Fairy-tales in the Modern World


The story of the girl called Little Red Riding Hood arises again and again so far. It was first mentioned in Tirol and the Alps —it was at least in the XIV century

Some interesting facts about the wolf

Initially in oral variations of the fairy tale the wolf was not a common animal, but a werewolf. This fact resulted in its ability to speak in a human voice and perform the grandmother.


Charles Perrault

In 1697 in Paris Charles Perraulttook one of the variants for a basis, presented the anonymous girl with a red cap and a hood and she first got the name — Little Red Riding Hood.


Brothers Wilhelm and Jacob Grimm

changed the plot by adding the hunter, rescuing Little Red Riding Hood and her granny from out of the wolf's belly and the plot got much more cruelty in itself.

.


FAIRY TALE DURING THE VICTORIAN EPOCHLiterature during the Victorian period took on a unique style very much the opposite of its predecessor. The main focus of the tales from this time became issues of morality. There was almost always a message that the reader could take away from the story (sort of similar to the Aesop’s Fables of old).

Investigating Fairy Tales• We came across a

peculiar version of the tale published in 1867, the project of investigating fairy tales being maintained by the University of Southern Mississippi, the USA

• The kids’ book was human-like outlined, it resembled the figure of the late grandmother. It could not but produce a wired effect on a reader.

• Probably the Civil War in America resulted in a higher level of criminal events. That demanded teaching girls not only to obey but to learn to take care of themselves. And that also meant avoid talking to strangers.


• This scary looking edition produced the necessary impression on the young readers


• Nowadays writers use them, sometimes deliberately inspiring the readers to get their ideas with the help of the plots beloved since childhood.

• E.g. “Hoodwinked!” and other cartoons stories or horror films or other movies.


Fairy tales have started coming back to the forefront in television and on the big screen.

• Roald Dahl once created a joke that he thought of no importance. It was a story of that kind of Little Red Ridding Hood who could kill the wolf with a pistol and wear a furry wolfskin coat.


• All of a sudden the poem gained popularity because in the modern society there arose a demand for strong independent women. A movie was shot on this plot.

Politically Correct Fairy Tale

• There was another well-known joke by Jim Garner, where the girl drinks maalox as she has got a stomachache, and is strongly concerned about the environmental problems.



How do you think modern 6-year pupils

fancy Little Red Riding Hood?

In one of the tales composed by a girl of 12, the main character is quite imaginative and makes the wolf play ball, run around the house, play tricks, and he was too exhausted, he fell asleep and forgot to gobble the girl.

Little Red Bonnet • One of the other variants depicts a

girl clever enough to threaten the wolf with a liquid aspirin (it appeared the wolves are allergic to aspirin). To avoid it, the wolf gives up the idea of gobbling the two humans and provides them with money and two tickets for the plane to Rhome. Little Red Bonnet and her granny are quite happy on their way to Italy.


•

• The reason for these alterations lies in the way of life of the children. They often get tired of doing different jobs the elders make them do, suffer from headache and are extremely exhausted by the end of the day.

MODERN LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD

Conclusion

• The fairy tale plot influences people because of the emotions they preserve after listening to these tales at the early age.It might be used by an author with a view to strengthen the impression he is going to produce on the reader.


The “updated” fairy tales variants

• All the “updated” fairy tales variants reflect the demands and needs and the peculiarities of the concordant world.

• Thus, investigating the fairy tales, we investigate the world.

Appendix 1• Little Red Hat• • Little Red Hat’s home was in the forest. And Little Red Hat had a granny. Little Red Hat went to granny’s house to bring a

cake for granny. But there was a wolf, who wanted to eat up Little Red Hat and the cake. He ran to granny’s house, caught granny and closed her in the storeroom. Little Red Hat came to granny’s house and saw a “granny”. She understood, it was the wolf, and she had a good idea.

• “Have you brought a cake for me?” – asked the wolf when Little Red Hat said “Hello”• “Yes, but first let’s run around the house!” – answered Little Red Hat.• And they ran.• “Let’s play!” – said Little Red Hat then.• And they played.• “Let’s have a cup of tea!” – said Little Red Hat.• And they drank tea. The wolf was going to eat up the cake, but Little Red Hat put it in her bag.• “Let’s sing a song!” – said Little Red Hat, but the wolf was sleeping. He was very tired.• Little Red Hat opened the storeroom and made granny free.• Granny and Little Red Hat took the sleeping wolf, put him on to their shoulders like a collar (he was very heavy), went to the

town and gave up the wolf to the zoo.• • The end


Appendix 2• Little Red Bonnet1. • Little Red Bonnet lived in a house, which was in a forest. A terrible wolf lived in this forest, he was always hungry and he

wanted to eat Little Red Bonnet up. Little Red Bonnet had a granny. Her granny often had a horrible headache and the girl brought liquid aspirin to her every week. But the wolf found the granny’s house, caught granny and decided to tie her up. He could eat the granny up, but she was old and not tasty. Little Red Bonnet knew nothing about the wolf’s plans. But when she came to the house, she looked up at the window and saw the wolf. After that she understood everything.

• But then she had a good idea. She knew all wolves are allergic to aspirin. She opened the door and said, “Hi, Granny, how are you? You aren’t OK. Are you? You must drink the liquid aspirin!” Little Red Bonnet showed a bottle of aspirin. “No, no, I am not your granny! I am a wolf! If I drink this medicine, I’ll die!” “If you buy me a sport car and a new mobile phone, I’ll forgive you. If you don’t do it, I’ll make you drink the aspirin!” she shook the bottle of aspirin in front of his eyes. The wolf was trembling. “You have rich ancestors, haven’t you?” asked the girl. “OK, I’ll do it. I promise. But I want you to be my friend. And I’ll buy three tickets to any city for you,” said the wolf. “It is a good idea”, answered Little Red Bonnet.

• In an hour Little Red Bonnet, her elderly granny and the wolf were sitting on the sofa and were drinking tea.• “Let’s fly to Rhome!” said the wolf. – “Rhome is wonderful!” answered Little Red Bonnet.• “Thфere are many brilliant hospitals in Rhome!” said granny.• Three hours later they were in an aeroplane and were very happy.• _______________• 1Little Red Riding Hood.
