Here are some key dystopian elements I found in The Giver and a potential thesis:
1. The community is highly structured and hierarchical, with citizens assigned roles. "It was Assignment Day." Everyone wears the same plain clothes.
2. Conformity is strictly enforced. Jonas notices differences but knows "it was not right to see more, or differently." Dissent is not tolerated.
3. Emotions are suppressed. Citizens take daily pills to blunt feelings. Memories are controlled by the Committee and Giver.
4. Constant surveillance through public address system and Assignment of labor. No sense of privacy.
5. Protagonist Jonas begins to question the strict rules of the community as he learns
The document analyzes common themes and elements found in popular slasher films from 1978 to 2012. Many films feature killers who return to seek revenge after prior killings, target teenage victims in isolated small towns or remote locations like camps or cabins, and have no clear motive beyond senseless violence. Successful films often feature a final girl protagonist who must outwit the killer. Common icons include masks to anonymize the killer and distance them from society.

A brave heroine whose quest involves living her true gender. A genderqueer knight who battles the transphobic court to save their prince. The journeys taken by trans heroes weave in and out of Joseph Campbellโs classic pattern, but deviate from it in specific ways. The hero often fears discovery by the close community, but nonetheless departs on the adventureโleaving a place of dangers to find a refuge and community of acceptance. Talismans include gendered tools that show the mentor's acceptance of the hero's real identity. The romance is likewise a guided path to selfhood and affirmation. Villains are the transphobes of real life, mythologized and made deadlier. In happier stories, the parent figures learn from the conflict, and finally seek reconciliation. Top franchises like Steven Universe, The Matrix, The Umbrella Academy, Sense8, Sandman, DC, and Marvel demonstrate these tropes, as do recent top fantasy books and graphic novels by nonbinary authors worldwide. The tales end with the hero wielding the dual worlds in a way beyond anything Campbell observed, which nonetheless fits the patterns of the oldest myths.

The document discusses Joseph Campbell's model of the hero's journey and proposes an alternative model called the heroine's journey. It outlines the stages of the heroine's journey, noting key differences from the hero's journey, such as receiving household objects rather than weapons from mentors and questing to save loved ones rather than defeat a dark lord. It provides feminine symbols commonly found in heroine's journeys and describes common sidekicks, trials, and adversaries like animal helpers and shapeshifting partners.
INTRODUCTION Hans Ckristian Andersen Cruelty and violen.docxnormanibarber20063
ย
INTRODUCTION:
Hans Ckristian Andersen
Cruelty and violence have often been seen as the signature of German
fairy tales, but P. L. Travers, the British writer who created Mary Pop-
pins, found the Grimms' tales downright tame by comparison to the
stories composed by Hans Christian Andersen:
How much rather would I see wicked stepmothers boiled in o i l -
all over in half a secondโthan bear the protracted agony of the
Little Mermaid or the girl who wore the Red Shoes. There, if you
like, is cruelty, sustained, deliberate, contrived. Hans Andersen lets
no blood. But his tortures, disguised as piety, are subtle, often
demoralizing.1
Travers's objection, framed as a protest against the duration and func-
tion of the punishment, fails to make a more important point about
the target of torture. While the Grimms may boil stepmothers in oil or
send them down hills in barrels studded with nails, they rarely allow
children to endure torture. Andersen, by contrast, promotes what many
readers might perceive as a cult of suffering, death, and transcendence
for children rivaled only by what passed for the spiritual edification of
children in Puritan cultures.
Nowhere is the effort to celebrate the virtues of physical distress and
spiritual anguish more pronounced than in " T h e Little Match Girl," a
story with remarkable staying power. Hardly a year goes by without a
new American edition, in large format, with lavish illustrations, clearly
intended to appeal to children and often issued in the holiday season.
Yet this is a tale hardly designed to buoy spirits. T o the contrary, An-
dersen strains his verbal resources to construct a scene of abject suffer-
ing. T h e "hungry and shivering" [233] heroine in the story's title is not
only subjected to freezing temperatures, she must also witness the gay
festivities around her (lights shine through the windows). Although she
has a home (wind whistles through its cracks), she dares not return to
it, for she has not earned a single penny and her father is sure to beat

her. Punctuated with increasingly urgent reports of the dropping tem-
perature, Andersen's narrative builds to a climactic finale in which the
little match girl is embraced by her dead grandmother ("the only one
who had been kind to her" [234]).
Just what is it that compels us to read to children a story that cul-
minates in a "little dead body" [ 2 3 4 ], a girl "frozen to death" [234]?
William Bennett gives us one answer in the caption that introduces the
story in his best-selling Book of Virtues: " T o feel another's anguishโ
this is the essence of compassion. Here is a Hans Christian Andersen
masterpiece, a simple, tragic story that stirs pity in every c.

The Librarian now manages both the Senior School library and the Junior School library in collaboration with the Junior School Library Coordinator. [1] Some key developments this term include subscribing to the local Schools Library Service for the whole school, creating research guides for subjects like science and PE, and surveying students and staff about eReader ownership and interest. [2] At the Junior School library, borrowing statistics are being analyzed and older students are not borrowing fiction books, so funds will be used to improve that section of the collection. [3]
The librarian now manages both the senior and junior school libraries. In the past term, the librarian focused on expanding library services across both schools, including virtual library resources and reading programs. Over 2000 books were added to the junior school library which reopened in November after renovations. Both libraries saw increased book borrowing and positive feedback from visitors.
