Once Upon a Time. A deeper look at fairy tales. Blog Post 10: African-American Folk and Fairy Tales. Blog Post 12: Folk Tales in India and Bangladesh →. Blog Post 11: Arabic Folk Tales. April 15, 2012. This week we read the frame story of “The 1001 Nights” and learned about Arabic folk tales. Interestingly, the number 1000 in Arabic cultures represents infinity, so adding one to that makes it a super massive number surpassing the infinite.

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.

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.

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 ...

Tuesday, January 24, 2012. A Lesson in Basic Economics.
