    “Snow White”: Agency and Evil in Adaptations for Children
    (2009-05-20T16:09:54Z) Harrison, Lynsey
    An exploration of how ethical dilemmas are depicted in juvenile fictions versions of Snow White. Adaptations of this classic fairy tale walk a fine line between editing the story to be child friendly and maintaining the story’s integrity. In this project, particular attention will be paid to how children’s books alter Snow White to use the moral dilemma of the Huntsman and the final punishment of the Evil Queen as opportunities to teach lessons about justice.

    The Undead and the Living God: How 19th Century Vampire Literature Participates in the Epistemological Discourse of the Victorian Era
    (2010-05-12T18:50:49Z) Harrison, Lynsey
    An investigation into how 19th century vampire literature reveals the evolving religious beliefs of 19th century Britain. This presentation will examine Polidori’s “The Vampyre,” Le Fanu’s “Carmilla,” Stevenson’s “Olalla,” and Stoker’s Dracula in terms of the underlying religious beliefs revealed by how vampires are depicted in each story. Žižek’s concept of belief before belief will also be used to understand how practice and belief interact in these texts. Using these explorations, it will then be possible to draw conclusions about how and why vampire fiction has experienced windfalls in the 19th and now the late 20th and early 21st centuries.
