The Little Mermaid Compare And Contrast

Throughout time we’ve come to terms on different versions of stories that have been altered to fit what we want to read or see for our enjoyment. Having variations of a story can demonstrate what type of audience is in the sight of the creator. The term “disneyfication” is the word to describe the idea of turning a story into a modern day version that creates an illusion to the real story written before. This has happened several times in past decades, where stories are altered to set an example for the audience, whether it’s believing in oneself or getting the job done, to get what you want, is different from the original tale. The comparison between Hans Christian Andersen “The Little Mermaid” and Disney’s “The Little Mermaid,” are a set

of examples that demonstrate how similar and different both versions can be from one another.
