I11-R103article-72302023-12-16T02:57:26Z Little Red Riding Hood is not a princess. The critical potential in a traditional character Caperucita no es una princesa. La potencia crítica de un personaje tradicional Cejas, Ana Gisela Pac, Andrea literatura infantil libro álbum narrativas feministas Caperucita Roja reescritura children's literature picture book feminist narratives Little Red Riding Hood rewriting This paper aims an interpretation of different rewritings of “Little Riding Red Hood”, in the light of the criticism of fairy tales in Feminist Studies and Children’s Literature Studies. Our inspiring hypothesis is that, since she is not a princess, this character holds a particular potential for rewritings that reject traditional gender representations, which are present however in the popular versions of “Snow White”, “Cinderella” or “Sleeping Beauty”. In order to frame the analysis, we first present the connection between the two fields of studies mentioned above, since the academic interest in Children’s Literature is fostered by the development of the feminist perspective on folk tales. Secondly, we suggest a brief but meaningful corpus of picture books that convey critical rewritings of “Red Riding Hood”. Our conclusion is that this character’s traits make her especially powerful for this kind of literature. Este trabajo se propone interpretar distintas reescrituras de “Caperucita Roja”, a la luz de las lecturas que los estudios feministas y los de literatura infantil han hecho de los cuentos tradicionales. La hipótesis que lo inspira es que, al no tratarse de una princesa, el personaje tiene una riqueza especial para las reescrituras que critican las representaciones de género propias de los cuentos de hadas, y que se mantienen en las versiones popularizadas de otros relatos como “Blancanieves”, “Cenicienta” o “La Bella Durmiente”. Con el fin de enmarcar el análisis, en primer lugar se presenta la conexión que existe entre los dos campos mencionados a partir de que el interés académico por la literatura infantil se fortalece con la expansión de los estudios feministas sobre los cuentos folklóricos. En segundo lugar, se sugiere un corpus representativo de libros álbum que proponen reescrituras de “Caperucita” con rasgos críticos. La conclusión es que las características de este personaje lo hacen especialmente potente para este tipo de literatura.

This paper aims an interpretation of different rewritings of “Little Riding Red Hood”, in the light of the criticism of fairy tales in Feminist Studies and Children’s Literature Studies. Our inspiring hypothesis is that, since she is not a princess, this character holds a particular potential for rewritings that reject traditional gender representations, which are present however in the popular versions of “Snow White”, “Cinderella” or “Sleeping Beauty”. In order to frame the analysis, we first present the connection between the two fields of studies mentioned above, since the academic interest in Children’s Literature is fostered by the development of the feminist perspective on folk tales.
