some readings of "Snow White"

You tried your hand at interpreting "Snow White" through your literary lens -- nice work!

To see what some other people have done (and some are more credible than others), check out these readings if you're interested...

Archetypal: http://www.jungatlanta.com/articles/summer07-archetypal-patterns.pdf
(This also addresses a bit of psychoanalytical measures.)

Psychoanalytical: http://psycnet.apa.org/psycinfo/1990-24891-001
(This is a tough one - actually in a literary journal, Signs. Focuses on mother/daughter relationships in a feminist and psychoanalytical reading. Click on the link under "Links" to get the full text.)

Marxist: http://blackinkquill.wordpress.com/2013/08/23/critical-appraisal-of-little-snow-white-the-original-snow-white-grimm-version/
(This is from a blogger, so take that as you will... It's quite an interesting application of Marxist principles to the text, though I'm not sure I buy it.)

Historicist: Alas, I have not found anything in my cursory search.... If I do, I'll post it soon!
