Little Mermaid Comparisons

Ive never cognize that Disneys The Little Mermaid was not an first Disney character/ flooring, though this shouldnt have been a surprise since Disneys princesses all in all come from stories developed by people out-of-door of Disney. Like Disney they take some integritys original figment and add so very much more to them to ground them appropriate and more appealing to children of all ages.Andersen and Disney some(prenominal) share the similar story lines when it comes to the main idea of the story. In both The Little Mermaid stories, Ariel wanted to ultimately become human so that she could be with Eric. She also sided with Ursula in a carry that would give her legs in fill in for her voice in Disneys adjustment her voice was kept in a nautilus shell by Ursula, in Andersens form she actually gave up her tongue. She wouldnt stay human forever if she didnt end up with Eric. The punishments were different in both stories if she didnt end up with Eric, and both punishments did happen in i way or another. Andersens story says that if Ariel didnt marry her on the dawn of the beside day after he marries another woman she will dice brokenhearted and will disintegrate into ocean foam however in Disneys version Ariel will return to her regular foam but will belong to Ursula.Ariel gets her legs and is fine physically according to Disney, but in Andersens story every time she moves it feels as if she is being stabbed in the legs and her feet bleed terribly. Eric also falls for her until Ursula deceives him by using Ariels voice leading him to believe that she is the one that saved him, therefore he wants to marry her. Its a big cacophony at the wedding and Ariel eventually gets her voice back and when Eric tries to kiss her to make the transition complete, the sun sets and Ariel is returned to mermaid form and kidnapped by Ursula.In the other story the prince thinks the woman he saw at the temple where he was target after being rescued was the one that sa ved him, so sort of he marries her. Since the Prince marries the other girl instead, causing The Little Mermaid to brace herself for her awaiting death, her sisters emphasise to save her by letting her know that they made a deal with the sea witch that if she kills the prince with the knife that theyve got and let his blood drip on her feet shell return to mermaid form and everything would be fine. She couldnt kill the prince and instead died and turned into sea form but she did get a eternal soul because she strove with all her heart to gain an eternal soul.Disney adds more things to the story that makes it even long-range than the original and a sort of musical. Theyre version is also not as dark as the original, and Ariel does end up with Eric unlike Andersens story where she dies anyway. Andersens version shows no expression towards the idea of childhood, my opinion would be because of how dark the original story was, it doesnt even seem like it is for children. Disneys versi on is very communicatory when showing ideas towards childhood, the story itself is very colorful and appealing to children with the fun characters and songs.The Disney version serves as an example of DeZengotitas Me World because Ariel is surrounded in her own dry land wondering about humans and theyre way of life and ultimately absentminded to become one herself. She represents herself in different ways whether it be by song, or by her actions.
