ENG 114 1Q - Fairy Tales and Feminism

Minimum Credit(s) Awarded: 4
Maximum Credit(s) Awarded: 4

Fairy tales are complicated. Traditionally, they emphasize teaching us to behave in order to achieve a “happy ending.” Yet, they are also inherited fictions, passed down through generations, inviting revision and reinvention. From the Brothers Grimm to the latest Disney hit - this seminar will trace how fairy tales have changed over time and the various ways in which they have worked to construct and define gender roles.  Cross-listed WS 114  


Prerequisite(s): This course is for first semester freshmen or freshmen transfer students.
