The search for an "original" version of traditional fairy tales is a subject that is dear to critics within the genre. Both the persistent attempts to delimit the creative role of Charles Perrault and the Grimm brothers, as well as searches for records of previous oral versions, denounce the interest in a Cartesian pursuit of the truth of fairy tales, which paradoxically goes against the type of knowledge of which art and literature themselves consist: a sui generis superior form of knowledge governed by the bonds of the truth of the possible. Taking the work of Almodóvar e Taeger (2009) as an example, we dedicate ourselves to the reflections that it, as a metafictional textuality, raises about itself. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This article has the intention to pay attention to some latent aspects in fairy tales, in the versions produced by the Brothers Grimm and Charles Perrault, and seen from the psychoanalytic perspective, in the reading of Bruno Bettelheim (1980). We will make an analysis of some of the tales by the above authors, under the viewpoint of Bettelheim, who, following the Freudian and Lacanian theories, invests in the Oedipus Complex, to relate the three phases of this complex, manifested in the characters of Snow White, Cinderella, Prince Frog, The Girl of the Geese, John and Mary, The Fairies, Rapunzel, Little Thumb, and Little Red Riding Hood. This is a bibliographical analysis, whose objective is to allow a reflection on the possible identification of children with the characters in these tales, in order to facilitate their immersion in the world, based on the information inscribed, according to Lacan, in the Imaginary, Symbolic, and Real, structures that, besides not disregarding Freudian concepts, are able to expand them.

This article aims to analyze the translation process in poetry considering the works of Angela Carter as a translator. Carter was a noted British author, best known for her novels and rewrites of fairy tales, and for her works related to science fiction. For this article, by using the book Unicorn: the poetry of Angela Carter (2015) and based on Lefevere's theories of translation (1975, 1992, 2003) we propose a translation exercise from English into Brazilian Portuguese of an excerpt from her poem - namesake - titled "Unicorn". In this sense, we seek to understand how literary creation and literary translation are presented in Carter's work as a wordsmith - an artist of the word. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

After the structuralism period but also the boom of poststructuralist deconstruction, this study aims to explore the functionality of the models of narrative organization proposed by Formalist and Structuralist theories, by taking contemporary themes as a basis. The favored corpora for demonstration: the film Snow White and the Huntsman (2017) - to which we apply the 31 functions developed by Russian folklorist Vladimir Propp - and the computer animation Shrek (2012) - considering the model of predictability developed by Lithuanian linguist A.J. Greimas. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The main aim of this study is to explore if, and if so, how Rabih Alameddine, Kim Addonizio, and Kellie Wells have managed to sustain, replicate, disregard, or redefine the patriarchal ideology customarily associated to gender issues within the fairy-tale tradition. What is really striking is that, several decades after the revisionist project undertaken by the "Angela Carter generation", these new voices experimenting with the field of fairy tales still feel the need to revisit the same mythemes and fight against the same ideology and values that pervaded twentieth century retellings of fairy tales. The subversive potential of the fairy tale retellings seems to have been surpassed by the powerful agenda of a patriarchal social system, which, despite the social, psychological and political changes, still retains its status quo.
