Cinderella - Brothers Grimm Brothers Grimm, translated by Margaret Taylor (1884) Cinderella is one of some 209 of the most famous fairy tales collected by Jacob (1785-1863) and Wilhelm Grimm (1786-1859), and first published in 1812. This tale has been particularly popular in all of its many forms and adaptations. The character has become an archetypal rags-to-riches figure. Many young girls/women have dreamed of becoming a modern Cinderella; and other writers have used the archetype to bring the original Cinderella to life. The wife of a rich man fell sick, and as she felt that her end was drawing near, she called her only daughter to her bedside and said, "Dear child, be good and pious, and then the good God will always protect thee, and I will look down on thee from heaven and be near thee." The woman had brought two daughters into the house with her, who were beautiful and fair of face, but vile and black of heart. "The good into the pot, The bad into the crop." "Cinderella".

Machiavelli: So that its subjects will view it with admiration, as a chicken which has the daring and courage to boldly cross the road, but also with fear, for whom among them has the strength to contend with such a paragon of avian virtue?

Subculture In sociology, and cultural studies, a subculture is a group of people within a culture that differentiates themselves from the larger culture to which they belong. The term subculture has become deprecated among some researchers, who prefer the term co-culture, in order to avoid the connotations of inferiority associated with the "sub-" prefix.[1][2] While exact definitions vary, the Oxford English Dictionary defines the term as "a cultural group within a larger culture, often having beliefs or interests at variance with those of the larger culture."[3] Definition[edit] often negative relations to work (as 'idle', 'parasitic', at play or at leisure, etc.) Identifying subcultures[edit] The study of subcultures often consists of the study of symbolism attached to clothing, music and other visible affectations by members of subcultures, and also the ways in which these same symbols are interpreted by members of the dominant culture. Subcultures' relationships with mainstream culture[edit]
