[en] THE GRIMM BROTHERSNULL COLLECTION: READING, TRANSLATION AND MELANCHOLY IN THE KINDER-UND HAUSMARCHEN ANTHOLOGY / [pt] O ACERVO DOS IRMÃOS GRIMM: LEITURA, TRADUÇÃO E MELANCOLIA NA COLETÂNEA, KINDER-UND HAUSMARCHENSYLVIA MARIA TRUSEN 21 June 2006 (has links)
[pt] A comparação das anotações manuscritas com a primeira
(1812) e a última
edição (1857) dos contos reunidos por Wilhelm e Jacob
Grimm, no livro Kinderund
Hausmärchen, evidenciou um processo de leitura e tradução,
cujo teor
melancólico sugere a preocupação em delinear uma unidade
não apenas fraternal,
mas também da própria nação que se desenhava na escrita do
acervo. Assim, a
partir do par conceitual leitura e tradução, o estudo
visou sondar sua construção,
mediante a pesquisa comparada da primeira e última edição,
bem como dos
apontamentos recolhidos no intitulado Manuscrito de
Ollenberg. A perspectiva
interdisciplinar adotada, se permitiu entreve a adaptação
das narrativas ao público
leitor contemporâneo, também possibilitou constatar o
conflito inerente ao ajuste
exigido pelo novo destinatário. Outrossim, verificando o
caráter inédito no Brasil
de algumas das narrativas inventariadas pelos Irmãos,
especialmente daquelas
centradas sobre a melancolia, prosseguiu-se à tradução das
narrativas ilustrativas
do processo. Desse modo, pôde-se perseguir a elaboração de
uma escrita que,
paulatinamente, se liberta do peso do texto considerado
original. / [en] The comparison of the handwritten notes of the first
(1812) and the last
(1857) editions of the tales collected by Wilhem and Jacob
Grimm in Kinder-und
Hausm-rchen revealed a reading and translation process
whose melancholic style
suggests an intention to delineate not only an unit of
fraternity, but also an unit of
the nation that was being portrayed in the collectanea.
Therefore, considering the
conceptual pair of reading and translation, this study
aimed at exploring the
construction of the collectanea by comparing its two
editions and the notes
gathered in the book Ollenberg´s Manuscript. The
interdisciplinary perspective of
the study made it possible to catch a sight of the
adaptation of the narratives in
order to match its contemporary readership and to evidence
the inherent conflict
present in the process of adjusting the work to its new
readership. Moreover, after
having verified that some tales collected by the Grimm
Brothers remained
unpublished in Brazil - specially those marked by
melancholy -, those pieces of
work were translated into Portuguese in this study. As a
result, this study also
made it possible to understand the process of creating a
work that gradually frees
itself from the burden of the concept of what an original
text is.

Representations of female sexuality in fairy tale illustrations and text, with specific reference to the Brothers Grimm's The handless maidenMeyer, Berry 03 1900 (has links)
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.

Der nicht natürliche Tod und andere rechtsmedizinische Sachverhalte in den deutschen Volksmärchen unter besonderer Berücksichtigung der Kinder- und Hausmärchen der Brüder GrimmBeier, Barbara 02 July 1998 (has links)
Die Arbeit befaßt sich mit den Formen des nicht natürlichen Todes und weiteren rechtsmedizinischen Sachverhalten wie Leichenerscheinungen, Scheintod, Identifizierung von Personen und Leichen, Selbstverstümmelungen und Spuren von Tätern und Opfern in den deutschen Volksmärchen. Rechtsmedizinische Zusammenhänge von Ursache und Wirkung werden nach ihrer Gültigkeit im Märchen hinterfragt. Wie werden beispielsweise Gewaltwirkungen auf äußere Erscheinungsbilder betroffener Märchenfiguren, Tötungsgeschehen und Tatwerkzeuge dargestellt? Inwiefern entsprechen Schilderungen der Tatbestände und ihre Bewertung im Märchen auch historischem Rechtsverständnis? Was unterliegt den epischen Gesetzen des Märchens? Für die rechtsmedizinische Fragestellung nach den Verletzungsspuren am Getöteten, dem Tötungsgeschehen und den Tatwerkzeugen sind die Märchen als Quelle des Volkswissens nur begrenzt verwertbar. Zum Beispiel sind keine Wunden, innere Blutungen oder kleinere Verletzungen nach Gewalteinwirkung beschrieben. Es wurden nahezu alle klassischen Todesarten wie Ertrinken, Vergiften, Verbrennen, Verhungern, Erhängen, Erfrieren, Selbsttötung und Tod durch scharfe und stumpfe Gewalt im Märchen vorgefunden und betreffende Textstellen unter Benutzung der "historisch-geographischen Methode" regional verglichen. Zusammenhänge von Ursache und Wirkung konnten jedoch nicht im Sinne einer rechtsmedizinischen Rekonstruktion des zum Tode führenden Geschehens nach heutigen Maßstäben aufgestellt werden. Das Märchen als Volksüberlieferung kennt keinen historisch konkreten Zeitbezug. Mit der zeitlich und regional variierenden Wiedergabe des Erzählstoffes fließen neue Motive und anderes Wissen mit ein. Daraus ergab sich für die Arbeit eine zurückhaltende Aufstellung von Vergleichen des rechtshistorischen Alltags und der geschilderten Märchenwirklichkeit. Der nicht natürliche Tod konnte bei der rechtsmedizinischen Untersuchung nicht unabhängig von seinem Zusammenhang im Märchen betrachtet werden. Er ist im Märchen oft ein Mittel, entsprechend den Moralvorstellungen Gerechtigkeit herzustellen, aber auch die Protagonisten von ihrem positiven Weg abzubringen. Seine sozialisierende Funktion in der Märchengesellschaft kann nicht übersehen werden. / This thesis reports about the types of the non-natural death and further issues of legal medicine in the German folk tales such as the sure signs of dead bodies, appearently dead people, identification of persons and corpses, mutilation of its own and traces of perpetrators and victims. Do forensic correlations between cause and effect appear in the fairy tales? How do fairy tales describe the violent effects to the concerned figures? outward appearance, the killing event and the tools of crime? How does the facts of the cases? description and their valuation in the fairy tales correspond to the historical comprehension of the rights? The folk tales are only of restricted use as a source of general knowledge for the forensic issue of the injury traces on a dead body, of the killing event or of the tools of crime. For example, there are not described any wounds, internal bleedings or smaller injuries after violence. Nearly all classical causes of non-natural death are found in the fairy tales: drowning, freezing to death, hanging, burning to death, poisoning, dying of starvation, suicid and death by sharp and blunt force. There could not be shown any correlations between cause and effect in the sense of a killing event?s forensic reconstruction after today's standards. The folk tales as an oral tradition are not exactly related to a certain historical period. With each new performance a story was influenced by new motivs or knowledge. For that reason the comparison between fairy tales and historical reality of everyday life is very restrained. The non-natural death as a forensic fact can only be interpretated in ist function in the folk tales. By means of the non-natural death the fairy tales? characters are doing justice corresponding to their moral ideas, but positive figures can also be pushed away from their good ways. The non-natural death? socializing function in the fairy tales? society is evident.

Sleeping Beauty and Her Many RelativesKemptner, Dorothy Jeanine 23 July 2009 (has links)
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.

“A feminist subversion of fairy tales” : Écriture féminine, gender stereotypes, and the rejection of patriarchy in Angela Carter’s The Bloody ChamberMurati Kurti, Fjola January 2021 (has links)
Fairy tales are usually described as short narratives that end with happily-ever-afters, imposing patriarchal ideologies. The Grimm’s fairy tales serve as the foundation of many other stories which promote stereotypes like woman passiveness, submissive beauty, while men are put on a pedestal for being active and violent at the same time. Angela Carter’s collection The Bloody Chamber depicts patriarchal oppression in classic fairy tales by challenging what can be identified as patriarchal binary oppositions with a strategic subversion of gender roles. Through problematizing and critiquing the patriarchal fairy tales, Carter’s texts can be read through the lens of écriture féminine. Following Hélène Cixous’s notion of écriture féminine, outlined in “The Laugh of the Medusa”, this essay explores how Carter’s “The Lady of the House of Love'' can be read as a narrative that has strong echoes of the kind of female writing Cixous advocates. Moreover, this essay argues that “The Lady of the House of Love” contradicts the Western myth of femininity by resisting, exploring, even undermining the patriarchal representation of woman as “heroine”-the fairy tale princess who needs a man to save her -and “femme fatale.”

Previous issue date: 2012-03-31 / This essay aims at investigating how is the construction and representation of the female protagonist in Disney s animated film "The Princess and the Frog" (2009). In order to accomplish the main objectives, I take as reference theoretical concepts from different areas of knowledge, emphasizing on the genres of speech, intertextuality and polyphony, in accordance with Bakhtin and his Circle, besides focusing on the notions of stereotype and gender as a cultural category linked to the feminist criticism critique. This work is divided into two chapters. In the first one I present the theoretical framework, a brief history of fairy tales and comments about their film adaptations, from the panorama of the movie production of the nine Disney Princesses. In the second chapter, I highlight the methodology employed in the linguistic analysis and imagery from the movie "The Princess and the Frog" on the basis of what I call contextual nucleus which include the following elements: 1) time / space / family constitution, 2) economy / true love / happy ending, 3) scenario / songs / colors and traces 4) fantastic / wonderful / mysticism. I also suggest at this stage a study of Tyana´s physical and behavioral characteristics in comparison with the tale "The Frog Prince by the Grimm Brothers and, three of the "Disney Princesses": Snow White, Cinderella and Aurora. I believe that animation films and adaptations of traditional fairy tales that are directed to children, broadcast standards, values and meanings bring a great influence on the formation and construction of gender identities. Throughout the approach to cinematic language (verbal and imagery), it is possible to unveil the ideology that pervades this midia due to social interchange whereas it is an intertextual discoursive space / Esta dissertação tem por objetivo investigar de que modo ocorre a construção e a representação da personagem feminina no filme de animação A princesa e o sapo (2009), dos Estúdios Disney. Para realizar esse estudo, tomo como referencial teórico conceitos de distintas áreas do conhecimento, salientando-se os de gêneros do discurso, intertextualidade e polifonia, conforme Bakhtin e seu Círculo, além de enfocar as noções de estereótipo e de gênero, como categoria cultural, vinculados à crítica feminista. Este trabalho encontra-se dividido em dois capítulos. No primeiro, apresento o referencial teórico, um breve histórico dos contos de fadas e um comentário acerca de suas adaptações para o cinema, a partir do panorama da produção fílmica das nove princesas dos Estúdios Disney. No segundo capítulo, destaco a metodologia empregada na análise linguística e imagística do filme A princesa e o sapo com base no que denomino de núcleos contextuais , os quais compreendem os elementos seguintes: 1) tempo/espaço/constituição familiar; 2) economia/amor verdadeiro/happy end, 3) cenário fílmico/canções/cores e traços e 4) fantástico/maravilhoso/misticismo. Proponho ainda nessa etapa, um estudo das características físicas e comportamentais de Tiana, em termos comparativos com o conto O rei sapo , dos Irmãos Grimm e três das princesas Disney : Branca de Neve, Cinderela e Aurora. Acredito que os filmes de animação, adaptações de contos de fadas tradicionais, voltados para as crianças, transmitem normas, valores e significados, que influem diretamente na formação e construção de identidades de gênero. Por meio da abordagem à linguagem cinematográfica (verbal e imagística), foi possível desvelar a ideologia presente nesta mídia de intercâmbio social, enquanto espaço intertextual discursivo

From Snow White to Frozen : An evaluation of popular gender representation indicators applied to Disney’s princess films / Från Snövit till Frost : En utvärdering av populära könsrepresentations-indikatorer tillämpade på Disneys prinsessfilmerNyh, Johan January 2015 (has links)
Simple content analysis methods, such as the Bechdel test and measuring percentage of female talk time or characters, have seen a surge of attention from mainstream media and in social media the last couple of years. Underlying assumptions are generally shared with the gender role socialization model and consequently, an importance is stated, due to a high degree to which impressions from media shape in particular young children’s identification processes. For young girls, the Disney Princesses franchise (with Frozen included) stands out as the number one player commercially as well as in customer awareness. The vertical lineup of Disney princesses spans from the passive and domestic working Snow White in 1937 to independent and super-power wielding princess Elsa in 2013, which makes the line of films an optimal test subject in evaluating above-mentioned simple content analysis methods. As a control, a meta-study has been conducted on previous academic studies on the same range of films. The sampled research, within fields spanning from qualitative content analysis and semiotics to coded content analysis, all come to the same conclusions regarding the general changes over time in representations of female characters. The objective of this thesis is to answer whether or not there is a correlation between these changes and those indicated by the simple content analysis methods, i.e. whether or not the simple popular methods are in general coherence with the more intricate academic methods. / <p>Betyg VG (skala IG-VG)</p>
