Arabic Abstract
تتناول هذه الأطروحة ثلاثة من القصص التي جمعها الإخوان غريم، والتي تم تبنيها لاحقا من قبل والت ديزني للإنتاج الفني.
بالرغم من اعتياد أطفالنا مشاهدة والاستماع إلى قصص “سندريلا“ (1993) و“رابونزل“ (1993) “بياض الثلج“ (1993) القصيرة على مر الأجيال والتي قام الإخوان غريم بتجميعها بصورتها الأصلية إلا أنه تم تغيير حديتها بدرجة جذرية لتتناسب مع التوقعات المجتمعية السائدة.
هذه الأطروحة تهدف إلى دراسة الجانب المظلم والقوطي من هذه القصص في محاولة لإثبات انتمائها للأدب القوطي وعدم اقتصارها على كونها قصص شعبية.
كما وسيتم تسليط الضوء على الأنثى القوطية وكيف تم تجسيدها في القصص الأصلية.
وأخيرا، تبحث في الأسباب التي أدت إلى تغيير هذه القصص من شكلها القوطي الأصلي إلى قصص خيالية يتطلع إليها الأطفال.
English Abstract
This thesis aims to expose three of the original stories collected by the Grimm brothers that were later adapted by Walt Disney production.
“Cinderella” (1993), “Rapunzel” (1993) and “snow white” (1993) are three short stories that our children grew up watching and listening to.
nevertheless, the famous versions of these stories were tuned down drastically in an attempt to satisfy the expectation of the societies.
the Grimm brothers, Jacob and Wilhelm, made a collection of those fairytales in their original form.
this thesis aims to study the original stories in their gothic and dark atmosphere to prove that they should be considered as gothic works and not only folktales.
it will also tackle the female role in those three short stories and shed light on the objectification of the female gothic in the original collection.
lastly, the thesis will tackle the topic of turning those folktales from their original gothic form into fairytales that children look up to.
