Taylor's Myths

Mike Rugnetta talked about the many different settings that mythical stories have. I found this video interesting because I found that he was saying to be true now that I have explored tons of many different stories in the Mythical Folklore world. He talks about how many mythical stories share the same settings. There are a few important places that myths happened like caves waters gardens, forests and temples. For an example there was a story that I re-write that was based off of a story that was mostly involved in water. It was called the Great Flood and the story was about Manabush and his brother. Mike Rugnetta also talked about the origin of the meaning of caves and gardens and refers back to the beginning of humanity when Adam and Eve was created. They happened to be in the Garden of Eden. Which was looked at a physical and metaphorical place. It is described to be a lush and growing place. Because of human disobedience they were casted out of the perfect paradise but the garde

This story,  The Brave Tin Solider  is a part of the  Andersen Fairy Tales unit . It is by H.P. Paul (1872). I was not a big fan of this story. However, I can switch up the story and have the little boys actually be little Spongebobs in my story. Just like the little boy received the Tin Soldiers for his birthday. Spongebob could receive a toy Jellyfish for his birthday. The Jellyfish could all look a like except for one. The difference between this jellyfish and the others can be this jelly fish only have one stinger. The tin soldier saw what he thought could be his wife and he thought he could not have her because he only lived in a box. In my story I am going to have the Jellyfish see Mr.Krabs daughter Pearl and fall in love with her. The Jelly fish and pearl will become happily ever after. Tin Soldier

This story, Princess and the Pea  comes from the  Andersen Fairy Tales unit . It is translated by H.P. Paul (1872). This story is about a prince tat is on the search for a real princess. I  could easily incorporate this into my SpongeBob theme. Since Gary, SpongeBob's pet died. he could be on the search for a new "Gary the snail". The princess came in and she talked about how uncomfortable she was while sleeping on the bed. She said, " ... I was lying on something hard, so that I am black and blue all over my body. It's horrible!" This is how the prince knew she was a REAL princess because nobody could be as sensitive as she was to the pea in the mattress unless they were a princess. I could have SpongeBob take a specific trait from Gary and try to find that trip on a different snail. I think I might have him look for a snail with a certain amount of swirls on his shell. That will determine if the snail is REAL of not. Princess and the Pea
