3 sources with annotations

1.
Cinderella Cinde. Wikipedia, 30 Oct. 2009. Web. 3 Nov. 2009 .

There have been many versions of Cinderella made into books, movies, cartoons, musicals, ballets, operahs, etc., this tale has been a part of our culture since the earliest citing in the first century BC. With this the story has changed dramatically over time. I will be looking at the changes and will be pondering over why did this one tale change so much.


2.
Gruner, Elizabeth R. Saving "Cinderella": History and Story in Ashpet and Ever After Hollins University, 2003. Web. Projec t Muse. Eckerd College. 6 Nov. 2009 .

The original story of Cinderella did not look as preety as the story we know today by Walt Disney; the story has been warped over time. This source will enable me to look at the story from its earliest version and see how the story has changed so dramatically into the version created by Walt Disney.

3.
Gruner, Elizabeth R. Cinderella, Marie Antoinette, and Sara: Roles and Role Models in A Little Princess The Johns Hopkins University Press, 1998. Web. Projec t Muse. Eckerd College. 6 Nov. 2009 .

The character of Cinderella has changed from being a strong woman in Victorian versions to someone that is viewed as weak. I will be looking at why her characterstics have changed in this view and does it have to do with the two different societies.
