Tales of Beedle the Barn. A College Perspective on Fairy Tales. Sunday, March 25, 2012. Cinderella Story in Real Life. Links to this post. Rags to Riches: the American Dream.

Tales of Beedle the Barn. A College Perspective on Fairy Tales. Monday, April 2, 2012. Looking at Some Other Blogs. For those who care, you can access each week's syllabus and blog assignment on Dr. Esa's. Dr Esa is fond of posting cartoons and funny videos, so check his page out. I also recommend that everyone who is in the least bit interested in fairy tales read Sammi's. For a drier, more academic approach, check out my ex-roommate Joel's. Check out my favorite softball pitcher Becky's. This is just a...

Tales of Beedle the Barn. A College Perspective on Fairy Tales. Monday, April 30, 2012. We also talked about how the female protagonist broke from the typical fairy tale. Although women are often the title characters in fairy tales (Cinderella, Snow White, Goldilocks, Beauty and the Beast, etc), they are almost always passive. Take Cinderella: she goes back home and waits around for the Prince to come find her. Or Snow White: she falls into a coma! Links to this post. Sunday, April 22, 2012. On Thursday ...

Tales of Beedle the Barn: January 2012
http://barnabasfurthblog.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html
Tales of Beedle the Barn. A College Perspective on Fairy Tales. Friday, January 27, 2012. My Favorite Fairy Tale. The Emperor's New Clothes. This is my favorite fairy tale because it celebrates a childlike innocence, an air not caring what others think. The King, and in turn all of his subjects, believe (or pretend to believe) in the "robes." The King is worried that if he admits he cannot see anything, he will be thought of as. Links to this post. Tuesday, January 24, 2012. A Lesson in Basic Economics.

Tales of Beedle the Barn: Peer Review
http://barnabasfurthblog.blogspot.com/2012/03/peer-review.html
Tales of Beedle the Barn. A College Perspective on Fairy Tales. Tuesday, March 6, 2012. Part of my MidTerm exam is to do a peer review of Becky Kaler's. If I had to criticize Becky's blog I would say that her style does not invite readers in; it assumes that the reader has some prior knowledge in the subject, and she doesn't always take time to explain an assignment before jumping into it. Also, a few of her pictures don't show up, at least on my computer. The Princess and the Blog. Folk and Fairy Tales.
