    In 1964, the literary critic Northrop Frye published a book, titled The Educated Imagination, in which summarized his ideas on the relevance of literature to life and more specifically, the conventions that come with them. Frye establishes the literary forms through the exploration of traditional and modern forms of story telling. The foundation of conventional literature has been told many times throughout history, however it is at the discretion of the author to embellish it with minor outlying details, or content change. Literature can only stem from literature itself. All literature is new, but also recognizable. We can still find these conventions in modern day literature and media. An illustration of the Cinderella story convention is…

    Drawing on her many years of psychology training and client therapy, Jacqueline Schectman, director of training for the Jung Institute of Boston, makes a comparison between the four archetypes in Cinderella and the stages of grief families and children she treats in therapy. In her article, she describes a step-mother who, rather than hostile and unfeeling, seems to present a structure and truth to an abandoned little girl; step-sisters who are themselves reeling from unacknowledged grief; and a father who has withdrawn into his own pain resulting from the loss of his wife.…

    Films that I particularly favor are thrillers. One reason Thrillers become so enjoyable for me, a sense of diversion is created making the viewers more indulge in the movie all the way to the ending. The plots are usually twisted, climatic, suspenseful and intelligence is often use far as the writing perspective to result in an ecliptic viewing of the movie. A really great thriller will usually bring a shock factor by the climax, then the movie will receive a better understanding from the beginning to end. Another genre of films I enjoy are Musicals they are fashionable and express emotions through singing. I am really into lyricism so I enjoy comparing the actual expression of the each character's individual story and the progression…

From Cinderella to Snow White these princesses have been adapted into different stories, cultures, and forms of art. On March 17, 2017 at Moline High School, I attended the yearly musical, this year being Cinderella. As I entered the auditorium, an usher took my ticket and greeted and told me to enjoy the show, which I appreciated. The auditorium was pretty packed; however, I had gotten a reserved seat. Cinderella, Cherrie Herberg, had a warm and timid personality, which was perfect for Cinderella. She had a few times during her singing parts that could have been stronger, but overall her singing ability shone through. Cinderella really did well with the song…
