Abstract: Das Bedeutungsfeld der Zeit im literarischen Genre der zur Kurz-Epik hinzugehörenden Volksmärchen und Kunstmärchen wird in dieser literaturwissenschaftlichen Untersuchung in den Mittelpunkt gerückt. Ausgegangen vom aristotelischen Zeitbegriff, der Bewegung und Veränderung als unabdingliche Merkmale der Zeit postuliert, wird nach dem Unterschied des den Märchen der Brüder Grimm und H.C. Andersen jeweils zugrunde liegenden Zeitbegriffs der zeitlich aufeinanderfolgenden Autoren gefragt. Daraus ergibt sich eine durch die close reading Methode gestützte Untersuchung, wie sie die Zeit anhand eines Beispiels aus ihren Werken thematisch, stilistisch und narratologisch organisiert haben. Der strukturalistische Literaturtheorieansatz Gérard Genettes hilft dabei die Komposition aus erzählter Welt und Erzählwelt der Märchen zu begreifen und die Zeitorganisation der vorliegenden Werke nach Ordnung, Dauer und Frequenz zu unterscheiden. Der aus dem erkenntnistheoretischen Ansatz Käte Hamburgers entwickelte Begriff des Epischen Präteritums lenkt das Bewusstsein auch auf die zugrunde liegenden Rahmenbedingungen der epischen Fiktion in der Dichtkunst und verhelfen die zeitliche Ansprache an die Leser in die Untersuchung mit einzubinden. In der Untersuchung wird auch der Rhythmus als ein Wechselspiel der Zeit entdeckt und ihn als eine ihr dazugehörende Qualität erkannt und miteinbezogen. Als Beispiele wird das Volksmärchen „Die Sterntaler“ und Andersens „Das kleine Mädchen mit den Schwefelhölzern“ nach einem zwischen Form und Inhalt möglich kongruenten Zeitbegriff untersucht. Ein in dieser literarischen Auseinandersetzung entstehendes Begriffsnetz der sich gegenübergestellten Werke unterstützt die Annahme des kulturgeschichtlichen Wandels der Einstellung zur Zeit bei H.C. Andersen gegenüber der der Brüder Grimm und mag zur Diskussion und fortlaufenden Forschung der Literaturgeschichte im Detail beitragen.Jag skickar det nu en gång till, hoppas det är rätt och kommer fram

The Brothers Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm made a deep research of the culture and folklore from Germany in the XIX century, which is focused on the popular oral tales. The following work focuses on analyzing the construction process of the moral of the Brothers Grimm tales regarding the relation between pagan symbolism and Christian values. In sum, four Brothers Grimm’s tales were analyzed “Snow White” (“Schbeewittchen”), “The Water of Life” (“Das Wasser des Lebens”) e “Rumpelstiltskin” (“Rumpelstilzchen”) (originally published on Kinderund Hausmärchen, from 1812) e “The Pied Piper of Hamelin” (“Die Kinderzu Hameln”) (from DeustscheSagen, published in 1816). The literary analysis considered several important things such as space, time, characters, narrative structure, themes and conflicts. A deep research was necessary to understand the historical evolution of each tale. The literary analysis was done from the Portuguese translation of Kinder- und Hausmärchen, Contosmaravilhososinfantis e domésticos 1812-1815 (2012), translated by Christine Röhring, published by Cosac Naify. The Pied Piper of Hamelin was analyzed from the version translated by American scholar D. L. Ashliman from 2013, which is available in his personal academic web page. The theory base comes from several important scholars, such as Nelly Novaes Coelho (1998), Jack Zipes (2002), Maria Tatar (2004), Karin Volobuef (2011), D. L. Ashliman (2013), among others.
No século XIX, os irmãos Jacob e Wilhelm Grimm realizaram um amplo mapeamento cultural do folclore alemão com ênfase nos contos de tradição oral popular. O trabalho a seguir tem como objetivo analisar o processo de construção da moral dos contos dos irmãos Grimm, tendo em vista a relação entre o simbolismo pagão e os dogmas cristãos. Foram analisados 4 contos dos irmãos Grimm: “Branca de Neve” (“Schbeewittchen”), “A água da vida” (“Das WasserdesLebens”) e “Rumpelstiltskin” (“Rumpelstilzchen”) (publicados originalmente na coletânea Kinder- und Hausmärchen de 1812) e “O Flautista de Hamelin” (“Die KinderzuHameln”) (que consta na obra DeustscheSagen, publicada em 1816). Os contos foram analisados a partir de alguns pontos considerados como relevantes para a construção da moralidade literária: espaço, tempo, personagens, estrutura da narrativa, temática e conflitos. Foi realizada também uma profunda pesquisa de informações importantes para melhor compreender a evolução histórica de cada peça literária em questão. Os contos serão analisados a partir da primeira edição de Contos maravilhosos infantis e domésticos 1812- 1815 (2012), traduzido por Christine Röhrig, publicado pela editora Cosac Naify. O conto “O Flautista de Hamelin” foi analisado a partir das versões traduzidas pelo pesquisador americano D. L Ashliman de 2013 que constam em sua página acadêmica. A fundamentação teórica foi realizada a partir de importantes pesquisadores literários tais como Nelly Novaes Coelho (1998), Jack Zipes (2002), Maria Tatar (2004), Karin Volobuef (2011), D. L. Ashliman (2013), entre outros.

Dissertação de Mestrado em Psicologia Clínica, apresentada ao ISPA - Instituto UniversitárioPretendeu-se com este estudo analisar o imaginário infantil inerente aos contos de fadas, os pais e mães dos heróis dos contos infantis dos Irmãos Grimm que, apesar de ausentes ou omissos, não deixam de ser figuras relevantes. Colocou-se assim a seguinte questão de partida para a nossa investigação: Será que as figuras biológicas (pais) apesar de ausentes, ou de não terem a possibilidade de acompanharem o crescimento e desenvolvimento dos seus filhos, têm impacto na vida dos mesmos? Outras questões igualmente pertinentes foram colocadas: Estarão de facto omissos os pais biológicos nos contos infantis dos irmãos Grimm? Existirão, a par dos cuidadores biológicos, outras figuras cuidadoras? Qual a qualidade parental destas figuras parentais (biológicas ou não)? Para dar resposta a estas questões, escolhemos analisar os contos da infância e do lar escritos pelos Irmãos Grimm com o propósito de compreendermos a influência da história de vida dos autores por detrás desta obra – Jacob e Wilhelm Grimm. Como tal, os contos analisados serão: Os Doze Irmãos, Irmãozinho e Irmãzinha, Rapúncia (Rapunzel), Os Três Homenzinhos na Floresta, As Três Fiadeiras, Joãozinho e Margarida (Hänsel e Gretel), Gata Borralheira, A Menina Sem Mãos e Branca de Neve. Caracterizaremos o sistema familiar e alargado das personagens principais, com o recurso ao Genograma Familiar e ao Ecomapa, Como procedimento, recorrer-se-á à Análise de Conteúdo para criar categorias temáticas, nomeadamente, Figuras de Vinculação, Competência/Qualidade Parental e Estilo Parental, quer para os pais biológicos, quer para os substitutos parentais.
ABSTRACT: The intention of this study was to analyze a child's imagination inherent in fairy tales, the fathers and mothers of the heroes of fairy tales of the Brothers Grimm that, despite absent or missing, are nonetheless relevant figures. We put the following question to our research: Does the biological figures (parents) although absent, or not being able to monitor the growth and development of their children, have an impact in their lives? Other issues were also raised pertinent: Are indeed missing biological parents in fairy tales of the Brothers Grimm? Are there, along with biological caregivers, other caregivers figures? What is the quality of these parental figures (biological or otherwise)? To answer these questions, we chose to analyze the book “Household Tales” written by the Brothers Grimm in order to understand the influence of the life story of the authors behind this work - Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm. As such, the tales that will be analyzed are: The Twelve Brothers, Little Brother and Little Sister, Rapunzel, The Three Little Men in the Wood, The Three Spinners, Hansel and Gretel, Cinderella, The Girl Without Hands and Little Snow-White. We will characterize the extended family system and the main characters, with the use of Family Genograms and Ecomaps, As a procedure, shall be used the Content Analysis to create thematic categories, namely Figures Attachment, Competency / Quality Parenting and Parenting Style for both biological parents and parental substitutes.

Full textAbstract:
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.

Full textAbstract:
This essay seeks to explore the relation between Crimson Bound and the fairy tale from which it derives from. Today, it is common to use fairy tales as a base for new literature, movies and tv-series and therefore it is interesting to study these new additions to our media. By applying Vladimir Propps extensive study of fairy tales to Rosamund Hodges Crimson Bound and the Brothers Grimms Little Red Cap I hope to come to an understanding of the differences and similarities that these two holds. Through this analysis I conclude that Hodges utilizes the functions that Propp states are specific to the fairy tale genre. I also conclude that, although Hodges closely follow the initial structure of Little Red Cap, she deviates from the fairy tale towards the ending. Besides the interesting similarities and the effect of the differences, the roles of the protagonist and the antagonist stands out. Therefore, a portion of this essay delves deeper into how the adaption to the fantasy genre affect these roles as well as how the relationship between then protagonist and antagonist alters due to this.

Full textAbstract:
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.

Full textAbstract:
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.

Unter häufiger Missachtung der sozialen, ideologischen und rhetorischen Gewohnheiten sowie der traditionellen Literaturgattungen war Bettina von Arnim bestrebt, dem preußischen König Friedrich Wilhelm IV. Ratschläge zu erteilen. Bettina von Arnim hat Überzeugungsstrategien entworfen, um einen starren und reaktionären Beamtenapparat zu umgehen und wachzurütteln, politische und soziale Reformen zu erzielen sowie das Staatsoberhaupt in Richtung auf ihr Ideal eines Volkskönigs zu beeinflussen. In dieser Arbeit sollen die von Bettina von Arnim verwendeten Mechanismen untersucht werden, wodurch sie sich in die Politik, eine den Männern vorbehaltene Domäne, einzumischen versuchte

Full textAbstract:
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.

Full textAbstract:
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: 2012-03-31This 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

Full textAbstract:
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.Betyg VG (skala IG-VG)

The Romanticism flourished all over Germany during 1780 to 1830. It was the time when the Brothers Grimm; Jacob Grimm and Wilhelm Grimm, encountered the movement. From 1802 to 1806, the Brothers Grimm studied in the University of Marburg and where they were tutored by the influential jurist, Friedrich Carl von Savigny. With his inspiration, the Grimms found their interests in ancient Germanic literature and folktales. Savigny then introduced them with Clemens Brentano and Achim von Arnim, their fellows in searching of the lost folktales. Their effort ended up with publishing the first volume of folktales, Kinder- und Hausmaerchen in 1812. The Brothers Grimm had used their works as the way to elaborate passion for national consciousness. In the preface of Kinder- und Hausmaerchen, the Grimms clearly pointed out their desire as delivering nationality, of which embedded within the folktales to the readers. In order to preserve the originality and to better represent it, they adopted the principal of using comparative study. We can find this method being readopted and imitated into their following writings. The Brothers Grimm had released works of all kinds; including folktales, legends and linguistic study. They collected folktales from peasants and villagers all over the “Deutschland”. Before Jacob formulated his mode of Germanisten, there were no guidelines for the German study to follow. He developed the knowledge by comparing and integrating differences between languages, historic background, legislations and other concerning issues. After that, conferences on Germanisten were held in Frankfurt and Luebeck respectively. The topic became easier for researchers to communicate and more probable of deploying as pursuing its ultimate goal － uniting the separate Deutscher Bund － by the means of untraditional, abstract culture measure. The March Revolution erupted in 1848. In response to the revolution, the prototype Parliament, National Assembly, was assembled in Frankfurt to ease the widespread dissent all over German States. Jacob was honored to be chosen as a representative in this meeting, where he devoted himself dynamically for supporting the idea of a unified Germany. The national consciousness of Brothers Grimm came from their beliefs in national identity, which was supported by findings they have read in ancient stories and literatures. The major unifying factor for the German people at that time was a common language. Therefore, Jacob and Wilhelm believed their effort of editing a German dictionary, das Deutsche Woerterbuch, will in the long run, motivate and empower people. In the wake of culture invasion conducted by France, in order to part the outsider from the native, citizens of the pan-Germanic region eagerly upheld their distinct social value and cultural identity. This is the time when the Brothers Grimm had presented them with a decent solution.

Transformation is one of the most pervasive themes in literature. However, it has received surprisingly little attention before 1980''''s. After 1980''''s, transformation as a literary theme has received more attention, and the theme begins to be discussed with different approaches. Still, transformation has not recieved the attention it deserves. It is discussed thematically only; other aspects about it has not been researched yet. For example, there is not any research about the structure of transformation stories yet. Therefore, this thesis intends to discuss it first according to their dramatic structure and the placement of each transformation. In chapter one, the definitions and four patterns of transformation are discussed. In chapter two, I analyze every one of the Grimm''''s and Andersen''''s transformation stories to note the structural location of the transformation. In chapter three, deductions based on the structural locations of the transformation are made. And I want to prove that all transformation fairy tales do have their special structure. In the conclusion, I prove that transformations do have their certain structural locations in a tale and that the second transformation in a tale is always predictable. Finally , I find that all these transformation patterns share one meaning and purpose: transformation speaks to one of man''''s desires, that is, to create a better life or to maintain his old style of living. This desire should not be ignored and "transformed" out of the structural studies of the fairy tale.

Full textAbstract:
This diploma thesis deals with a comparison of works of German and Czech fairy tale authors. The two cultures are represented by the Brothers Grimm and by K. J. Erben. Fairy tales of these authors are analysed from an intercultural point of view. Since each culture has different features, fairy tales of these cultures are written in a different form, as well. The theoretical part of the thesis is based on expert literature on intercultural communication and on the topic of fairy tales. Further sources include literature on the Brothers Grimm and on K. J. Erben. In the practical part, five fairy tales of the Brothers Grimm and five fairy tales of K. J. Erben are analysed and compared. This analysis and comparison represent the core of this thesis, with four different fairy tales chosen of each author and one fairy tale describing the same story.

Full textAbstract:
The poetics of space is a very interesting field, which has been so far marginalized from the theoretic point of view in comparison with other types of the poetics of literary work. Fragmentary information devoted to this theme has often been hidden in theoretic works that applied the poetics of space to some specific literary works. To be able to start focusing myself on the poetics of space in fairy tales, I had to lay the basis for the poetics of space in the first part of my thesis. The basis is built by the chapters in which I was concerned with the poetics of literary work and where I collected, organized and made transparent actual theoretic information about the poetics of space and its parts, space and place. I used these chapters for the specification of the terms used in my thesis. That specification enabled me to focus on the poetics of space in the fairy tales in the second part of thesis. As my research material I chose Grimms' fairy tales and eight Erben's fairy tales. I used this material to verify the relevance of particular hypotheses. In terms of my research I concerned on topics such as the poetics of space from the wider and the closer point of view, the boundaries of the fairy tales' space, the description and the layout of the space, the main and the side character in the...

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

Full textAbstract:
This dissertation has two main aims. The first is to describe or specify the poetics of "own" and "foreign" space in literary work in general and in the fairy tales of K. J. Erben, the Grimm brothers, B. Němcová or L. Bechstein; the second is to analyse and compare the poetics in three spatial pairs the "own" and "foreign" spaces in relation to the main character of the above-mentioned fairy tales representing, namely in the spaces of home and journey, the living and the dead or welfare and poverty. The first part of the thesis is mostly theoretical and is primarily focused on the first set goal, i. e. the description and specification of the poetics of "own" and "foreign" spaces as well as on related phenomena, such as the definition of concepts "space", "own", "foreign", "own and foreign space", "place", "character", "subject of own and foreign space", analysis of the character's relationships to space, evolution of humans relationship to space and their perspective on it in history and literature with a special focus on spatial turn etc. The second, predominantly analytical-comparative part of the thesis, connected mainly with the second set goal of the dissertation, focuses with the help of secondary literature in the field of humanities and specifically selected fairy-tale aspects on the...
