According to Bruno Bettelheim, “Little Snow White” symbolizes the journey of a young girl transitioning into maturity. He emphasizes Snow White’s growth and development as a key focus of the tale. In contrast, Anne Sexton’s adaptation delves into Snow White’s emotional landscape, highlighting her sorrow and hardships—a facet less explored in the original narrative. Sexton’s version intricately explores Snow White’s emotional turmoil, presenting a more complex and intense relationship between her and the prince, delving into the deeper emotional nuances of the story.
