Triangulation and Harvard refrencing

Enchantment of fairytales, Triangulation:

A good fairytale is like art, depending on the quality of the tale and the meaning. Art which is strong enough to enchant the mind and influence the understanding of good and evil in the world. 

Fairytales are essentially a symbolic and metaphorical guide for a child's morals, they can choose how to follow the story but morals cannot be ignored or denied, like a fairytale especially a really beautifully written tale that can incorporate lots of moral divides and predicaments that always test the characters in the story and effect the mind of the child who sides with what they feel represents them morally and emotionally.

No matter how close or fine a chance that the hero succeeds despite all odds, the teaching to fight for good faith cannot be corrupted or influenced by evil. That justice will always prevail in the end, because that is the rule of fairytales, teaching us that throughout a struggle that belief is stronger than death metaphorically. Overcoming the fear of monsters, monstrous characters and the monster within, because evil lives in all of us, it cannot be denied that is why it exists in tales, but always is deceased in the end or overcome by the good in all of us.

‘Freud's prescription is that only be struggling courageously against overwhelming odds can man succeed in wringing meaning out of his existence.’

Symbolic or indexical meanings from folk tales in social realities, like a spell, tales would have deeper meaning for the storyteller and this common thought would help bridge a gap in their understanding of social problems in a narrative way familiar to the experiences of the listener. 'Their aura illuminated the possible fulfilment of utopian longings, transforming them through imaginative play and composition.'

The role of most tales is to distinguish the good and bad, but what if the roles themselves are affected by a definitive icon that isn't always accurate in real life, but in traditional tales is seen as almost cliché in relation to modern stories. Typically, most tales feature a divide between male and female and their individual statement in the story, typically a male will be the hero and the term 'damsel in distress' is applied to the female being a plot point in the story usually, they usually need saving by a hero. Some cultural fairytales also feature a distinguish between races, to emphasize on an environment or setting the scene an example would be most tales from the early 80's and before, like for another example in terms of animated film the fourth Disney animated feature film, based upon the storyline written by Helen Aberson and illustrated by Harold Pearl.

I think traditional tales aim at the male hero because naturally the male is a strong and protective figure, but that doesn't make sense because tales are meant for children of both sex, the damsel in distress will weaken the view of female figures and icons as strong metaphorically in life ‘a child needs to understand what is going on with his conscious self so that he can also cope with that which goes on in his unconscious.’ This concept commonly reflects on the child’s conscious life because it is the belief of the story teller, in good faith to protect their child and inform them of such icons who fight evil, the fact that evil takes many forms yet the sword of justice is wielded by a common figure. This maybe to familiarize the child of the perfect hero or possibly introduce a dominance over others as far as traditional tales would go, stating characters’ immediate importance and influence on a story.

To educate the mind and strengthen the initiative of a child with its social relativity and meaning through symbolic context of aspirations, they are 'endeavors to grasp the social values of transformation'. This is the transformation from childhood into adulthood, and endeavors meaning journeys or education in the distance and experience it takes to develop, achieve, and to stimulate the mind to progress. Social values are that of experiences the child holds dear to his heart and what they represent for the child to accomplish throughout his life.

Traditional influence affects the legitimacy of fairytales

The oral tradition in a culture of the parent telling a fable or tale to the child to teach them the meaning of life and its values through symbolic realism and metaphoric meaning behind action and the resolve of the action in a fairytale stimulates further thought for the subject, to understand heritage, framework and tales of courage, bravery and sacrifice in stories and relating it to everyday life.
