Keyboard Monkey - Screenwriting and Story Ruminations: The Uses of Enchantment - The Meaning and Importance of Fairy Tales
http://blaisehesselgren.blogspot.com/2011/09/uses-of-enchantment-meaning-and.html
Keyboard Monkey - Screenwriting and Story Ruminations. Friday, 9 September 2011. The Uses of Enchantment - The Meaning and Importance of Fairy Tales. This is the old 1970's classic by Bruno Bettelheim, an exploration of the psychological meaning of Fairy Tales. It could be very out of date by now, but I found it extraordinary, so I thought I'd do a little review. It's only taken me a year or so to read (amongst other books as well, honest) because it is very dense and heavy going but well worth it. The A...

Hell, it's the bedrock principle by which our country was founded. There's some weird sh*t going on right now that needs to be questioned. However, when that questio...Eventually th...

Keyboard Monkey - Screenwriting and Story Ruminations: Supernatural Archetypes in True Blood and Being Human.
http://blaisehesselgren.blogspot.com/2011/01/supernatural-archetypes-in-true-blood.html
Keyboard Monkey - Screenwriting and Story Ruminations. Thursday, 6 January 2011. Supernatural Archetypes in True Blood and Being Human. Happy New Year, Vampire hunters. Both series are character driven- the plots springing from the protagonist’s communal desire to live a normal life, under the radar, rather than terrifying and killing us poor mortals. As a motivator it’s a pretty inactive goal, but shows their intrinsic yearning to be normal, one of the herd, a human like us – and t...So it falls to the ...
