Rewriting Fairy Tales: Challenges in Children's Literature Lee, Su-Jin (Chonnam National University) The purpose of this study is to reconsider the values of fairy tales. Some people say that fairy tales are useful to teach what children should know to live and grow in real world, such as good and evil, laws and punishment, human relationship like cooperation and friendship. But those who want to protect children say that fairy tales have bad effects on them because characters in fairy tales are stereotypes. My paper examines the social and political background in which fairy tales have been created and transformed. Although they use fantasy occasionally, fairy tales remain rooted in the real world. Stepmothers and witches are the products of the ruling class including "good" fathers who are threatened by women's increasing power in society and within the family. But newly-written fairy tales remold the characters of traditional tales. Some of them reverse the stereotypical points of view that fairy tales usually have. Some create new characters to show that there aren't fixed roles any longer in the actual world as well as in fantasy. For example, the Wolf in The 3 Little Pigs tries to be excused for his crime and the Princess refuses to be passive and get married to Prince Charming. To read fairy tales is not to remain as passive readers but to respond to the stories as active and creative readers in that readers have the right to represent the meanings of the stories. Rewriting fairy tales means not only breaking the conventions and fixed gender roles, but also creating new values. Rewritten fairy tales make us realize that there are different ways to view the traditional stories.
Abstract
Rewriting Fairy Tales: Challenges in Children's Literature Lee, Su-Jin (Chonnam National University) The purpose of this study is to reconsider the values of fairy tales. Some people say that fairy tales are useful to teach what children should know to live and grow in real world, such as good and evil, laws and punishment, human relationship like cooperation and friendship. But those who want to protect children say that fairy tales have bad effects on them because characters in fairy tales are stereotypes. My paper examines the social and political background in which fairy tales have been created and transformed. Although they use fantasy occasionally, fairy tales remain rooted in the real world. Stepmothers and witches are the products of the ruling class including "good" fathers who are threatened by women's increasing power in society and within the family. But newly-written fairy tales remold the characters of traditional tales. Some of them reverse the stereotypical points of view that fairy tales usually have. Some create new characters to show that there aren't fixed roles any longer in the actual world as well as in fantasy. For example, the Wolf in The 3 Little Pigs tries to be excused for his crime and the Princess refuses to be passive and get married to Prince Charming. To read fairy tales is not to remain as passive readers but to respond to the stories as active and creative readers in that readers have the right to represent the meanings of the stories. Rewriting fairy tales means not only breaking the conventions and fixed gender roles, but also creating new values. Rewritten fairy tales make us realize that there are different ways to view the traditional stories.
