Vi har i denna uppsats genomfört en adaptionsanalys på den nedskrivna och översatta folksagan Hans och Greta (1945) med den nya adapterade bilderboken Hans och Greta i det hemsökta huset (2021). Syftet med uppsatsen är att analysera vad det är som sker med den klassiska folksagan när den bearbetas till en ny mer modern och lättläst bilderbok. Det som analyseras är skillnader i intrigen, innehållsmässiga skillnader som text och bild samt hur adaptionen lett till språkliga skillnader som ordval och uttryck. Vidare analyserar vi studiens resultat i relation till läraryrket genom att diskutera möjligheter eller svårigheter som kan uppstå vid arbete med de olika versionerna i undervisningen. I uppsatsen används en kvalitativ forskningsmetod. För att analysera skillnaderna i båda verken används en komparativ metod samt Göte Klingbergs olika adaptionsformer. Studiens resultat visar att förändringarna gjorts för att anpassa bilderboken till en lättläst version för yngre läsare genom att förenkla och aktualisera språket, omarbeta eller ta bort händelser, addera bilder till texten och att det tillkommit mer skräckinslag. Slutligen diskuteras studiens resultat i relation till undervisningen för yngre elever genom att redogöra för- och nackdelar för att synliggöra vårt bidrag till den didaktiska utvecklingen.

TITLE: About definition of the folk fairy-tale genre and about elaboration of the Snow-white theme in collections of chosen german authors (J. K. A. Musäus, A. L. Grimm and J. and W. Grimm) SUMMARY: This diploma thesis is concerned with the fairy-tale genre, which is defined as the folk fairy-tale, Snow-white theme and elaborations of this theme in collections of J. K. A. Musäus, A. L. Grimm and the Brothers Grimm. In context of the historico-literary period and in connection with the folk fairy-tale genre all processing are analysed and compared with each other. Märchen (1971) of Max Lüthi and Deutsche Märchen vor Grimm (1942) of Albert Wesselski are the fundamental publikations for this thesis. The main result is that the caption »Sneewittchen« of the Brothers Grimm correspondes closest to the folk fairy-tale genre, while »Richilde« of J. K. A. Musäus and »Schneewittchen« of A. L. Grimm as author's fairy-tale should be called. KEYWORDS: Fairy-tale genre, folk fairy-tale, collections of german authors, Snow-white theme, Johann Karl August Musäus, Albert Ludwig Grimm, Brothers Grimm

Desde as épocas mais remotas as civilizações mais distantes compartilhavam as mesmas histórias com algumas modificações que geralmente diziam respeito ao contexto em que viviam. Com base no princípio de que esses contos tendem a se perpetuar na história, estudaremos quatro versões do conto que hoje é conhecido como A bela adormecida, são elas: Sol, Lua e Tália, de Giambattista Basile; A bela adormecida no bosque, de Charles Perrault; A bela adormecida, dos irmãos Grimm; e, por fim, sua adaptação cinematográfica, A bela adormecida, de Walt Disney. Para tal, propõe-se um panorama histórico do gênero conto (especialmente do conto maravilhoso) e também do cinema de animação, pois acredita-se que o contexto histórico foi determinante para a concepção das obras. São feitos também apontamentos teóricos sobre as duas linguagens, ressaltando os aspectos que contribuirão para a análise das narrativas literárias e fílmica. Pretende-se, portanto, evidenciar as mudanças ocorridas no decorrer das diversas publicações em relação às instâncias narrativas, ao enredo e também quanto à tradução das obras literárias para a narrativa cinematográfica / Los cuentos populares se difunden en el tiempo y en el espacio. Desde los tiempos más remotos, las civilizaciones más distantes comparten las mismas historias con algunas modificaciones que generalmente dicen respecto al contexto en que vivían. Fundamentado en el principio de que estos cuentos tienden a perpetuarse en la historia, estudiaremos cuatro versiones actualmente conocidas como La Bella Durmiente, siendo ellas: Sol, Luna y Talia, de Giambattista Basile; La bella durmiente en el bosque, de Charles Perrault; La Bella Durmiente, de los hermanos Grimm; y, finalmente, la adaptación al cine, La Bella Durmiente, de Walt Disney. Para este fin, proponemos un panorama histórico sobre el género cuento (en especial el cuento maravilloso) y también sobre el cine de animación, una vez que el contexto histórico fue fundamental para la concepción de las obras. También haremos apuntes teóricos sobre los dos lenguajes, destacándose los aspectos que contribuirán para el análisis de las narrativas. Con eso, pretendemos demostrar los cambios relativos a las instancias narrativas literarias y fílmica, al enredo y también a aquellos ocurridos en la traducción de las obras literarias para la narrativa cinematográfica

Thesis (MPhil (Visual Arts))--University of Stellenbosch, 2010. / ENGLISH ABSTRACT: This dissertation aims to investigate, from a feminist perspective, representations of female sexuality in fairy tale text and illustrations. I conduct my analysis in the form of a case study of the Brothers Grimm’s The Handless Maiden as it appeared in the 1915 English edition of their Children and Household Tales. My investigation is prompted by the belief that fairy tales play an important role in the social construction of gender relations, a process known as ‘interpellation’ within contemporary feminist discourse. This due to the fact that fairy tales are some of the earliest narratives young children get exposed to and thus help shape their understanding of the world around them and their role as social beings in it. I start my investigation by looking exclusively at fairy tale text – The Handless Maiden by the Brothers Grimm - and how language gets used to construct a specific version of female sexuality; that which is silenced and without agency, thus repressive and problematic from a feminist perspective. Here I firmly situate my argument within a theoretical framework provided by contemporary feminist discourse with reference to the arguments of theorists Judith Butler and Luce Irigaray and their emphasis on the key role of language within processes of ‘interpellation’. I then move on to a discussion of fairy tale illustrations and the important role thereof to underscore, by making visible, the particular version of female sexuality implicit in the accompanying text. The next part of my investigation focuses on images of women in the photo-collages of the early 20th century German artist Hannah Höch. I posit these as exemplary of imagery with the potential to destabilize patriarchal notions of female sexuality. By means of this investigation I hope to provide a discursive framework in which to situate my own set of illustrations of the Grimm’s Handless Maiden, which I completed as part of the practical component of my submission for the current degree. The final part of my discussion focuses on my own illustrations of the Grimm’s Handless Maiden and here I will argue for my illustrations as a means to, not only destabilize notions of female sexuality implicit in the accompanying fairy tale text, but also a means to suggest other, alternative, readings of the nature of the female sexual subject position implicit in the text. / AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Hierdie tesis ondersoek die feministiese tentoonstelling van vroulike seksualiteit in sprokies se illustrasie en teks. My ondersoek analiseer die Broers Grimm se The Handless Maiden soos dit verskyn het in die 1915 Engelse uitgawegenaamd, Children and Household Tales. Hierdie ondersoek word gelei deur die aan-name dat sprokies‘n belangrike rol speel in die sosiale konstruksie van geslag verwantskappe, ‘n proses bekend as “interpellasie” in die diskoers van kontemporêre feminisme. Sprokies is van die vroegste narratiewe waaraan kinders blootgestel word en beïnvloed dus hul begrip van die wêreld, ondermeer hul sosiale rol daarin. My ondersoek begin met die fokus op The Handless Maiden se teksen hoe taal gekonstrueer word rondom ‘n spesifieke weergawe van vroulike seksualiteit. Vanuit ‘n feministiese oogpunt is hierdie seksualiteit problematies, aangesien dit as swygend en sonder agentskap aanskou word. Ek struktureer my ondersoek rondom die argumente van Judith Butler and Luce Irigaray, met klem op die rol van taal in die proses van “interpellasie”. Daarna skuif my fokusna ‘n diskoers omtrent sprokies se illustrasies en die belangrike rol van onderliggende vroulike sexualiteit wat teenwoordig is in die teks sowel as die illustrasies. My ondersoek lei dan na die vroulike figure in die foto-plakskildery van die vroeg 20ste eeuse Duitse kunstenaar, Hannah Höch. My ondersoek van vroulike figure staan dan as voorbeelde van die moontlikheid om patriargale neiging van vroulike seksualiteit te destabiliseer. Ek beoog dus om ‘n diskoers raamwerk te stig waarin ek my eie illustrasies van Grimm se Handless Maiden, wat ek as ‘n deel van my praktiese komponenet voltooi het vir my huidige tesis. Die finale deel van my tesis ondersoek my eie illustrasies van Grimm se Handless Maiden. Hier plaas ek my werk in die destabieliseering raamwerk van vroulike seksualiteit wat vanselfsprekend is in die sprokie en terselfde tyd alternatiewe lesings van die vroulike seksualiteits onderwerp bied.

The main objective of the present thesis is to show the results achieved after investigating the presence of violence in the brothers Grimm’s fairy tales collection. After reviewing how the brothers Grimm’s fairy tales collection, a discourse aimed at adults, suffered a transformation and ended up being aimed at children, I explored whether the presence of violence in the brothers Grimm’s fairy tales collection could be empirically demonstrated by means of a Corpus Linguistics analysis. By doing this, I was able to show that classical readings aimed at children might be reclassified empirically and objectively after having analysed their content using a multidisciplinary approach. The framework for analysis is a combination of (i) corpus-based approaches (Biber et al 1998, Scott 2001 and Stubbs 1996, 2002); (ii) Systemic Functional Linguistics (transitivity analysis) (Berry 1977, 1989, Downing 1996:186, Downing and Locke 2006:120-167 and Halliday 1994: 106-175) and (iii) Critical Discourse Analysis (Van Dijk 1997, 2000, 2001, 2003, 2004, Widdicombe 1998 and Wodak & Meyer 2002-2009). The present study might provide a new insight into the violent content in the brothers Grimm’s fairy tales collection, as well as into the possible effects that these may have on children. In order to carry out a study of violence I have first paid attention to the type of verbal processes that appear in the corpus in order to find out who is inflicting violence upon who and then, I have studied the transitivity shifts, that is, verbal processes, and the participants and circumstances that are part of the corpus selected for the analysis, The Grimm Corpus. By doing this, it was my intention to find out whether power and violence were intrinsically related in them. In sum, my main objective was to find out the relationship between verbal processes and socially-constructed meaning related to power in these tales. By doing this, I intended to shed some light on the power relations that may help feature the characters in these tales and the consequences these power relations might have on the potential addressees. In order to carry out this research, I have divided the current article into five sections: firstly, I have reviewed how the literature aimed at children appeared during the 17th and 18th, centuries as a kind of game for adults in the midst of an aristocratic society where there was no demand for children’s books. The tales, then, became nursery tales by the 19th century; mainly due to an increasing market demand for children’s literature but their violent content remained as this study will demonstrate. In the last part of this stage, we will shed some light on the violent content of the brothers Grimm’s fairy tales collection. Section two introduces the concept violence and its different types. Sections three and four, presents a theoretical background dealing with the notions related to Corpus Linguistics (CL), Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) and Systemic Functional Linguistcs (SFL). Additionally, I present a brief explanation of how the combination of these approaches, have, in my opinion, contributed to clarify the relationship between social identity and the power that features the characters in the tales. The fifth part provides a concise explanation about the hypotheses and research methodology. The sixth part of my study is devoted to showing the detailed analyses and results achieved in the present thesis. Finally, chapter 7 depicts the concluding remarks and some pointers for further research. The results confirmed the initial hypothesis and provided some useful and interesting insights into the different kinds of identities related to violence found in fairy tales which come from oral tradition. / El principal objetivo de esta tesis es mostrar los resultados obtenidos tras investigar la presencia de violencia en un corpus compuesto por una selección de 22 cuentos pertenecientes a la colección de cuentos de los hermanos Grimm. Después de revisar cómo la colección de cuentos de los hermanos Grimm, una colección que nació como un proyecto filológico destinado a preservar la tradición alemana, se transformó en literatura para niños, he investigado cómo la presencia de violencia en esta colección de cuentos puede ser identificada empíricamente por medio de un análisis multidisciplinar compuesto por un análisis de procesos verbales (Berry 1977, 1989, Downing and Locke 2006 y Halliday 1994), un análisis de corpus (Biber et al 1998, Scott 2010 y Stubbs 1996) y un análisis del discurso (Antaki y Widdicombe 1998a/b, Fairclough 1989-2003, Tajfel 1974, Sacks 1974, Van Dijk 1997-2004 y Wodak & Meyer 2002-2009). Con este estudio, pretendo demostrar que las lecturas destinadas a niños que provienen de tradición oral podrían se reclasificadas siguiendo los mismos criterios de clasificación que se utiliza hoy en día en todas las lecturas destinadas a niños, es decir, criterios relacionados con el contenido y el vocabulario, entre otros valores, tras analizar los resultados obtenidos en este estudio. Por otro lado, mi segundo objetivo ha sido el estudio del papel que representan los principales participantes en los cuentos de los Grimm en relación a los procesos verbales encontrados. Este estudio se ha realizado con el propósito de identificar las categorías (en cuanto a status social y/o familiar) a las que pertenecen dichos participantes con el objetivo de comprobar si hay una relación entre status social, poder y violencia en estos cuentos de tradición oral. Es decir, si los personajes de estos cuentos cometen actos violentos respaldados por su identidad social y/o familiar, lo que les da poder sobre otros personajes. Los resultados obtenidos confirmaron la hipótesis inicial proporcionando datos útiles e interesantes en cuanto a la identidad de los participantes involucrados en el corpus de los hermanos Grimm y, por tanto, de algunos de los valores que se están transmitiendo a los receptores potenciales, es decir, los niños.

This report will examine the problems and possibilities of building a luxurious modern residence in Pattaya, Thailand, incorporating the old traditional building styles of the wooden houses to an ecological house with a low demand for technology. The client, B. Grimm Group, has recently set up a polo club in the vicinity of Pattaya and has requested a complete set of layouts regarding a planned housing area on the premises. The project includes a structure plan of the village area, perspectives, facades, building layouts and axonometric views of all house types, as well as garden plans. The written report works as a complement to the designs and explains the background to the final proposal. The report also handles the building technology and construction process of building a traditional Thai house and briefly investigates the ecological aspects of building in Thailand.

The creative work, Black-Winged Angels, is a collection of nine re-written fairytales. The collection is divided into three sections: Maiden, Mother, Crone and the three stories in each section explore various aspects of these traditional periods in a woman's life. The tales are re-written, or 're-loaded', to offer alternative views of the tales of childhood, to examine other forces that may be at work inside the stories themselves, and the possible consequences of 'living' those tales differently. The exegesis examines the colonisation and reclamation of a range of fairy tales. It traces the historical shift from oral to literary fairy tale traditions, and the ensuing patriarchal rewriting of those fairytales. The exegesis then considers the writing of Angela Carter and Emma Donoghue (specifically The Bloody Chamber and Kissing the Witch, respectively), in terms of how their work in the fairytale genre has both succeeded in, and failed to, avoid a simple inversion of gender with their revisions of the colonised literary fairytales. The exegetical work has grown, in large part, out of the process of critical reflexivity to which I have subjected my creative work. I chose Angela Carter's and Emma Donoghue's works of revisionist fairytales to act as 'bookends' for my own work; Carter as a starting point for fairytale reclamation and Donoghue as a more recent incarnation of the fairytale revisionist. In reflecting on my own work, I often looked back at what these two authors had done, to guide me in the eternal writers' struggle of what to leave in, what to leave out, and where to take the tale.

Ce travail de recherche aborde les stratégies épistolaires et communicationnelles de Bettina von Arnim (1785-1859), femme de lettres allemande, pour prendre part aux débats politiques et sociaux pendant la période du Vormärz. Transgressant les frontières sociales, idéologiques, rhétoriques et celles des genres littéraires, Bettina von Arnim a tenté d'influer sur le roi de Prusse, Frédéric Guillaume IV, au moyen de ses correspondances, de ses ouvrages et de son réseau. Bettina von Arnim a élaboré des stratégies de communication et de persuasion pour secouer un système ministériel rigide et réactionnaire, obtenir des réformes politiques et sociales et modeler le souverain selon son idéal du Volkskönig. Cette étude va s'attacher à montrer les mécanismes employés par Bettina von Arnim pour s'immiscer dans un domaine exclusivement masculin, la politique.

The Grimm Brothers’ Little Briar-Rose is a beloved fairytale, which is more commonly known as Sleeping Beauty. What began as a Volksmärchen, is now a world famous and beloved Kunstmärchen. The Brothers collected and adapted the tale, incorporating their own literary style, helping to develop a literary Germanic cultural history. In this thesis I analyze how the tale evolves from the original oral tale to the literary story, and how various perspectives of culture and authors, with particular audiences in mind, adapt their versions. Historical background of the Grimms and their influences, an analysis of how the story was revised by the Grimms in the 1812 and 1857 editions, how American children’s versions compare to the Grimms’ version and how Jane Yolen’s version of Sleeping Beauty meets the structural and cultural expectations of the Grimms’ tale are examined.
