The two versions of Little Red Riding Hood I’ve chosen to analyze is the Grimm brothers version and the Angela Carter version.

The Significance of the Ellipsis in "The Tiger’s Bride The Tiger’s Bride story by Angela Carter is a very complicated story which was written in a period that women were oppressed. Angela Carter wanted by writing this story to show how the society treated women as objectification. In this story there are lots of gaps‚ but the one which I found it the most mysterious is why the heroine transformed at the end to an animal. The Tiger’s Bride is a fairy tale which is similar to
