My perspective on fairytales, has always been a simple story with imaginative charthat kids enjoy. In this week my opinions about fairy tail is changed after reading,especially the Snow White narrative, has undergone significant change after engaging with this week’s readings. Initially, I perceived it as a simplistic tale of good versus evil. However, through feminist analyses, I now understand it as a more intricate story highlighting societal pressures and power dynamics. The jealousy of the Evil Queen reflects deeper themes such as beauty standards and women’s challenges in patriarchal societies. Furthermore, exploring Snow White’s agency and resilience has shifted my view from seeing her as a passive victim to recognizing her inner strength. These readings have transformed fairytales like Snow White into complex narratives that shed light on societal norms, gender roles, and human resilience. They have deepened my appreciation for the richness and multifaceted nature of these classic tales.
