A proposito di questo titolo
Fairy tale expert Anne Beall explains through her research why queens and princesses don't get their happily ever after.
News stories have been playing up the fairy tale theme in covering news of Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s decision to opt-out of the royal family. (E.g.: “When Did the Fairy Tale Go Sour?” and “A Royal Fairy Tale Turns Grim.”)
But what about the role of fairy tales themselves in making and breaking the fantasy of Meghan and Harry?
Author Anne Beall, Ph.D. an expert on fairy tales, data and the psychology of gender, says that if we’d taken a close look at real fairy tales, we could have easily predicted this unhappy ending.
Anne’s firm analyzed 169 of the 200 Grimms’ fairy tales including Cinderella, Snow White, and Sleeping Beauty. Using statistical methods to identify hidden patterns, she discovered that happily ever after is often elusive or questionable for women who marry a Prince or King.
