Four Weeks, Four Fairy Tales

Have you ever wondered why particular fairy tales persist in our culture, enchanting young and old alike? Are you curious about the connections between fairy tales, dreams, and literature? If so, join mythologist and Charlotte Lit cofounder Kathie Collins for a month-long journey into these magical realms. We’ll focus on a new tale each week, studying various methods of interpretation — feminist, structural, and archetypal — along with contemporary retellings. We’ll also discuss possibilities for writing the stories forward, ending each session with a take-home prompt. Expect light pre-class reading, in-class reading and discussion, take-home writing, and optional sharing.

"Myths and fairytales give expression to unconscious processes, and their retelling causes these processes to come alive again and be recollected, thereby re-establishing the connection between conscious and unconscious."—C. G. Jung
