A Summary and Analysis of the âLittle Red Riding Hoodâ Fairy Tale
Much of the material will not be new to anyone with an interest in folklore, and it has a tendency to meander toward the end. Unwilling to lose each other, Valerie and Peter are planning to run away together when they learn that Valerie's older sister has been killed by the werewolf that prowls the dark forest surrounding their village. Her mother was naturally very fond of the child, but her grandmother absolutely doated on her. I'm probably not the target audience for this. Originally these deceptively simple stories were passed orally from generation to generation. There are also those who are charming, quiet, polite, unassuming, complacent, and sweet, who pursue young women at home and in the streets. I wish the analysis were a little more in depth at points, but this is an appropriate introduction in many ways.
The Wolf was not long on his way to the grand-mother's house; he knocked, tap, tap, at the door. The Delarue tale presents a protagonist that loses her naivety through the trials she faces. In one single tale we see different forms of good and evil, as well as how different ideas become viewed as good and evil as time goes on.

In 1697, French writer Charles Perrault codified the several versions of this well-known folktale into the story familiar to us today. It was interesting to see how Perrault and the Grimms twisted the original folk story to mean that Red Riding Hood had to be rescued by the huntsmen, rather than being able to free herself and her granny and also get her own back on the wolf. The essay focusing on the parallels of fairy tales and pornography was far to short for any in depth coverage, which I found disappointing as there's enough material in the subject for an entire tome of its own. Feeling full and weighty, the wolf moved his paw over his tummy in full satisfaction and got into the bed once again. By writing as though the stories were told by a group of ladies and gentlemen, Straparola was able to justify his use of shocking vernacular language.

It is not surprising, therefore, to learn how many of these seemingly benign tales have descended from darker stories involving themes of adultery, incest, cannibalism, rape, murder and mutilation.
