How do the Grimm Brothers Little Red Cap, Angela Carters The Company of Wolves, And Tanith Lees Wolfland function as differing tales of empowerment? You may take into consideration Charles Perraults Little Red Riding Hood as well, but this is not required. Who (or what) is empowered in each tale? How?
Your essay must include a discussion of the titles, the first sentences, and the final sentences of all three tales!
In developing your analysis, you may wish to consider some (or all) of the following:
Pedagogical agenda of each tale
Structure and tone of each tale
Language of each tale
Gender roles in each tale
The role of nature in each tale
