Crosslistings: COL 317 |
Once upon a time there were two brothers by the name of Jakob and Wilhelm Grimm... Why do their famous tales live happily ever after? Are these stories really grim? What is their meaning and importance for children and adults? What is the connection between fairy tales and myths? Which motifs can be found in other folk literatures? Many scholars in the literary and social sciences have explored these questions. The course will familiarize students with some of this research and encourage them to find their own answers.
