Recommended: Compare and contrast of two fairy tales

Once upon a time, there was a prince who was very alone. His castle high on a hill away from everyone else down below this made him very sad. The prince was revered for being the most noble and kind man in the entire kingdom but he didn’t want this praise. Left and right princesses from other lands showed up to try and marry the prince for his power. The prince didn’t want to marry for status or power, He wanted to find true love but no one even came close to what he desired. One day he was in the forest looking at all the beautiful wild flower’s when he came across a clearing. Standing there was a beautiful woman with long brown hair and bright blue green eyes. The gown she was wearing looked very beautiful it was a soft white with a golden yellow trim. The …show more content…

“Could this be the one true love I was searching for?” The prince whispered quietly to himself. He couldn’t stop staring at her dancing around in the tall grass. He leaned closer to get a better look but he ended up falling forward with a loud thud making the woman jump. She looked around to see where the sudden noise had come from. When her eyes met the prince’s they just stared in awe at each other. “What is your name dear sir?” The woman asks the prince. “My name is Alexander” The prince said to the woman standing up and brushing off his lap. “What is your name fair maiden?” The prince asks the woman. “My name is Amelia, I live in the forest where are you from?” The woman asked as she walked over to the prince looking him over. The prince’s medium length brown hair and brown eyes were every so handsome. His jaw line was sharp and he had slight stubble of a beard growing on his face. The woman was taken back at how handsome this man was and the fact that he was speaking to her. “I hail from a kingdom north of this forest I am sure you know of it” the prince said with a soft smile. “I am afraid I’ve never

    (Holmes 1) This statement really opened my eyes to the truth she was speaking. Everything in America that seems perfect is considered nothing less than a “Cinderella Story”. She also says “It’s partly a fantasy about simplifying the relationship between social standing and coupling – one that makes the most sense in a world in which class differences are an accepted barrier to a good man choosing to marry a woman. If the prince is a man who believes from the outset that love conquers all, the story doesn’t really make any sense.

  • The Prince Controversy

    1883 Words  | 4 Pages

    Possibly the most controversial book ever written, The Prince by Machiavelli, focuses on how a Prince or leader should rule. Many of the techniques that are stated in the text have caused many debates ever since it’s publication. When Machiavelli composed the Prince, his contemporaries were shocked at the ideas and themes presented. The Prince introduced a whole new way of thinking that was almost completely contrary to present beliefs. For that reason, in 1559 the Pope banned the printing of the Prince and the rest of Machiavelli’s writings. What makes the Prince so controversial? The ideas presented in the book, such as the end justifies the means, makes it so controversial. Machiavelli’s influence can be seen through out history and literature. Because of his massive influence, Machiavelli acquired the word Machiavellian, meaning anyone characterized by the political principles and methods that Machiavelli recommended in The Prince. There are many examples of past and present Machiavellian leaders, such as King Henry VIII, Joseph Stalin, and Adolf Hitler. Machiavelli’s The Prince makes an easy guide for any dictator or leader to rule and sustain power.

    “The Wife of Bath’s Tale” is written in an entertaining and adventurous spirit, but serves a higher purpose by illustrating the century’s view of courtly love. Hundreds, if not thousands, of other pieces of literature written in the same century prevail to commemorate the coupling of breathtaking princesses with lionhearted knights after going through unimaginable adventures, but only a slight few examine the viability of such courtly love and the related dilemmas that always succeed. “The Wife of Bath’s Tale” shows that women desire most their husband’s love, Overall, “The Wife of Bath’s Tale” shows that the meaning of true love does not stay consistent, whether between singular or separate communities and remains timeless as the depictions of love from this 14th century tale still hold true today.

Unlike most couples in these kinds of stories, the King and the Queen didn’t suffer from fertility problems, and the opening of our tale finds the king pacing up and down the corridor outside the room where his wife was struggling to bring another member of the royal family into life. He paced restlessly, looking at the family portraits lined up upon the walls. His eyes would linger at the last pictures; his own family.

  • Analysis of The Little Prince

    3487 Words  | 7 Pages

    The tone of The Little Prince is often lonely and fragile-sounding, much like the little prince himself, when he ventures into the world of adults in an attempt to understand them. The writer emphasizes, throughout the story, that loneliness is what isolates the adults rather than children because they are unable to see things with their minds, hearts, and imagination. Both the protagonist (the little prince) and secondary protagonist (the narrator) lead lonely lives because of this isolation due to the differences between the minds of children and adults.      "So I lived my life alone, without anyone that I could really talk to," writes the narrator, before his plane crashes in the middle of the Sahara. He explains this in the first few chapters - living his life alone - because this 'world of grownups' does not understand him and wishes for him to talk of their idea of 'sensible' and 'practical' things. This made him very lonely, not so much in a physical sense, but so that he could never really find anyone to relate to. The narrator explains that after flat responses to his imaginative observations to things, "'Then I would never talk to that person about boa constrictors, or primeval forests, or stars. I would bring myself down to his level. I would talk to him about bridge, and gold, and politics, and neckties. And the grown-up would be greatly pleased to have met such a sensible man.'" In one of my magazines is an article called, "Popularity Truths & Lies," where popular girls talk about their social status. In large, red print, it says, "Lie: Popular girls are never left out or lonely." The girls then go on to explain how sometimes, they feel as if they are making so many friends only because of their popularity. They say that it's great to be popular, but difficult to find someone that really wants to befriend them for true qualities rather than social status. The situations between the narrator of The Little Prince and these popular students is that it seems that they would never be isolated (popular students from their admiring peers and the supposedly sensible-minded narrator from the adult world) - physically, at least - but inside the kind of friend they are really longing for is someone to understand and honestly talk to in order to end the abstract barriers between these worlds of people.
