GMST 121: Fairy Tales and Popular Culture | SAMPLE Syllabus

Term 2 | online | asynchronous | 3 credits

This course examines selected folk and fairy tales from the German-speaking tradition, primarily those collected by the Brothers Grimm, and their adaptation in popular culture. We will locate the texts in the 18th- and 19th-century cultural contexts of their origins and then follow how they have evolved into perennial favourites internationally across various media, including film, video games, board games, and comics.
