1. Double Attribution in Frank Stockton's "The Bee-Man of Orn."

Author

Horn, Tammy

Subjects
FAIRY tales, FEAR, SOCIAL perception
Abstract

The article presents a literary criticism of the book "The Bee-Man of Orn," by Frank Stockton. As Stockton's best example of a fairy tale with double attribution, the story addresses several timeless fears: the anxiety of being alone, the doubts about one's profession, and the grief of losing a loved one. Stockton is able to address these fears through a blending of fairy tale elements like sorcerers, griffins, and dragons.
