The term fairy tale should literally refer to stories about fairies but is “normally used to refer to a much wider class of narrative, namely stories about an individual, almost always young, who confronts strange or magical events.” Buttercup is eighteen when she developes into “the most beautiful woman in a hundred years” and twenty one once she reunites with Westley. It is not revealed if Westley and Buttercup lived “happily ever after”. The abrupt ending to the tale has the group fleeing from Humperdinck and his men and “the night behind them was filled with the crescendoing sound of pursuit.” Goldman labeled this as “a ‘Lady or the Tiger?’ type effect”, referencing the short story by Frank R Stockton.
The Talking Eggs folktale followed along the lines of the fairy tale, Cinderella. The story was about a cruel mother and her two daughters. She favored the lazy and mean daughter who was a mirror image of herself. Blanche, the other daughter, who was smart and kind, was physically and mentally abused by her mother. She ran into the woods to escape the abuse and met an old witch.
Confused and hurt, Montag thought, “suddenly she was so strange he couldn’t believe he knew her at all”(Bradbury 39). Montag also changes a lot after that fateful night.

What she did scar Montag forever,”the woman on the porch reached out with contempt to them [firemen] all, and struck the kitchen match against the railing”(Bradbury 37).
In particular, the story “Ashputtle”, uses the archetype of a spiritual entity who helps the individual when no one else would. Additionally, the story shows the archetype of evil being punished and the kind souls live happily ever after. So, when Ashputtle’s Stepfamily is cruel to her, she remains benevolent, which grants her a beautiful life while her stepsisters are blinded and bloody. These two archetypes were also presented in the story “Cinderella” by the fairy godmother who helps Cinderella look stunning for the ball so she and the prince can fall in love and have a happy ending. Archetypes are vital to literature because it is a symbol, term, behavior, and other things that are used for storytelling and demonstrate
Everyone and their grandmother has watched Disney movies. Some of Disney’s most iconic movies are their modern day reinterpretations of common fairy tales and the princesses with in them such as Cinderella, Jasmine, Snow White, and Rapunzel. However, anyone with eyes can notice that all of their princesses no matter their background rhave one thing in common; They are all fashionably, sometimes impossibly, skinny. And by contrast, many of the villains particularly the female ones are seen as undesirable. Being undesirable, particularly in the case of Cinderella, is shown by making her stepsisters fat and ugly.
In every Cinderella story they had similarities. For example, all these Cinderella characters were treated very poorly. In aschenputtle she was treated poorly just because she was pretty.

In the book, Jahren gives intimate details into her childhood, years as a student, professor in three separate universities, wife to a brilliant mathematician and as a mother to a boy.

In the play “Antigone” by Sophocles, the question of whether loyalties to family or loyalties to authority are more significant is brought up when personal matters are intertwined with legal affairs. Antigone is persecuted and punished severely by King Creon because she buried her brother, Polyneices, whom the king believes to be a traitor to the city and outlawed any burials or honor for the fallen man. In this situation, Antigone is right in going against the king’s law because in burying her dear brother, she honors the promise she made to him before he died, she pays respect to the laws of God and not the laws of mere mortals, and she shows her commitment to family by displaying her unwavering loyalty towards them, even in death. Antigone is right in crusading against Creon because in essence, he is unjustly punishing her in trying to punish her brother, Polyneices.
Could Have Made a Difference: Washington Farewell Address Washington composed the Farewell Address because he wanted to improve our country. He put in writing what he emphasized about foreign alliances, Political Parties, credit, debt, and taxes.

Political Parties weren’t Washington's favorite because each party had different idea and the ideas ended in two different places.
