FYS 1181 - From Grimm to Disney

Credits: 4.00
Fairy tales are perhaps most commonly associated with German literature, especially with the Brothers Grimm. This First Year Seminar provides an introduction to the fairy tale tradition, an overview of the most famous German fairy tales by the Brothers Grimm and a comparison to the Disney movie adaptations. We will read, discuss and analyze various fairy tales by the Brothers Grimm as well as various Disney film adaptations that most if not all students grew up with. In addition, the fairy tales will be illuminated from various perspectives, including formalist (structure and style), feminist, and psychoanalytic approaches.
McDaniel Plan: Creative Expression, First-Year Seminar, International Western, Textual Analysis
