    Little Red Cap, recorded in 1812 by the Brothers Grimm, and The Little Girl and the Wolf published in 1940 by James Thurber reflect societal values and society’s representations of gender during the time that they were written in. In the first version of the Grimm’s tale, they constructed an unintelligent and oblivious protagonist to depict the lack of agency of women.

However, Thurber portrayed his protagonist as capable and intelligent to highlight women’s ability to defend for themselves, which is also evident in the latter version of Little Red Cap. Thurber’s tale and the latter version of the Grimm’s tale also wiped out…
