Now in our very own Cash slots Lil Red online slot, players can add fun and excitement to the story’s deeper messages and enjoy the legend in a way that adds an extra layer of meaning to the phrase “my, what big TEETH you have.”
History
The Red Riding Hood tale seems to have first appeared in the 1600s in a collection of Mother Goose stories compiled by Charles Perrault. In Perrault’s version the wolf tricks Little Red Riding Hood, finds and eats the grandmother and, eventually, Red Riding Hood as well. Perrault focused on the story’s moral which, he taught, was that young people of good breeding
should avoid strangers and sketchy situations.
When the Brothers Grimm got ahold of the story in the 1800s they modified it a bit to allow Red and her grandmother to be saved at the last minute by a nearby huntsman. Subsequent adaptations included different variants of the wolf’s end.
Of all the various folktales and fairy tales, none came in for as much psychological analysis as did Little Red Riding Hood. Each variant has elicited its own interpretations from Perrault’s obvious meaning of having Red take off her clothes and get into bed with the wolf to the Grimms’ version in which Red trustingly approaches the wolf…..to no good end.
Some of the symbols include that of the red hood that covers Red Riding Hood’s hair (hair is viewed as sensual in many cultures), the color red (symbolic of life and vibrancy – in the 1600s, decent women never wore red so the color indicates the message that Perrault was trying to send), the forest (representative of danger – in psychoanalysis, a symbol of the unconscious), the bottle of wine in the basket (phallic shape, symbol of something breakable and fragile), and more.
