Once upon a time there was a story

In season one of the Roots of Lore podcast, we'll be diving into Charles Perrault's fairy tales: Tales and Stories of the Past with Morals: Tales of Mother Goose. So in this first episode, let's set the scene of who was Perrault? What was the world like that birthed these stories? What influences do we see a play? And how do the Grimm brothers fit into these stories?

S1E2 - Sleeping Beauty and what's really beneath true love's kiss

There are many ways to examine a story, and Charles Perrault's story of Bluebeard is a haunting one. So in this episode of Roots of Lore, we're going to look at the story from a psychological approach as well as a historical approach to see who Bluebeard could be in the time of Perrault, but also who Bluebeard might be in ourselves.

S1E3 - Bluebeard: Facing what's behind the door

Will you take the path of pins or the path of needles? This is the question that Little Red Riding Hood must answer not as a girl who should be wary of talking to strangers, but as a young woman entering into sexual maturity who might be the target of smooth-talking predatory men. In this episode of Roots of Lore, we're exploring the story of Little Red Riding Hood as she passed through the hands of werewolves and into the hands of Charles Perrault and the Brothers Grimm, plus the story of Lon Po Po, the Chinese version of Little Red Riding Hood.

In this episode, we're exploring the class system of Louis XIV's France through the story of Charles Perrault's Le Petit Poucet, or Little Thumb. We'll explore how it ties to the Grimms' Hansel and Gretel and how the ogre creature evolved from the Arabic ghoul.

S1E5 - Little Thumb and the Trail of Breadcrumbs

Animals appear often in fairy tales and folklore, and the most famous Animal as Helper is perhaps none other than our favorite booted feline, Puss in Boots (or The Master Cat). In this episode, let's start with Charles Perrault's version of "The Master Cat" to examine what this story meant in 17th century France, then we'll hear the story that inspired it, "Costantino Fortunato," and finally, explore the animal-human connection with "The Prince Who Befriended the Beasts."

S1E6 - Puss in Boots: The Animal as Helper

Sometimes stories serve as lessons for children, but in Perrault's day, sometimes fairy tales were a manners guide for adults. This episode explores "The Fairies" (Les Fées)—sometimes known as "Diamonds and Toads"—by Charles Perrault, "The Enchantments of Eloquence" by Marie‐Jeanne Lhéritier, and the story of Frau Holle.

What would you choose if you had to pick one: beauty or intelligence? In this episode of Roots of Lore, we're exploring two stories that test what qualities are most important in love: Riquet with the Tuft (of Charles Perrault and Catherine Bernard) and Beauty and the Beast (of Jeanne-Marie Leprince de Beaumont) plus taking it back to some lovers of mythology: Cupid and Psyche.

S1E8 - Riquet with the Tuft: of Beauties and Beasts

Cinderella is the fairy tale that, perhaps more than any other, sets our standard for how we expect a fairy tale to behave. But this story tells us more than what happens if you have some fancy shoes and a fairy godmother on your side. In this episode, let's explore the Cinderella of Charles Perrault as well as the Cinderella version of the Grimms—how these stories might give us hints of ancestral practices, and then how we equate shoes and lust with Ye Xian from China.

The nights grow long and dark. And from them spring holidays, rituals, celebrations, and stories. Now perhaps more than any other time of year, we find ourselves craving a slow-down to wrap ourselves in tradition, in familiarity, in comfort, and in meaning. So let us begin with the Winter Solstice, a point in the cycle of the year around which so many cultures around the world held celebration, ritual, and wove their stories.
