Folklorists have long studied variants on this tale across cultures. In 1893, Marian Roalfe Cox, commissioned by the Folklore Society of Britain, produced Cinderella: Three Hundred and Forty-Five Variants of Cinderella, Catskin and, Cap o'Rushes, Abstracted and Tabulated with a Discussion of Medieval Analogues and Notes. Further morphology studies have continued on this seminal work. [43] A Cinderella Story: Once Upon a Song (2011), a modernization featuring Lucy Hale and Freddie Stroma This Zuni version of Cinderella is unlike any other version I read because it doesn’t end happily ever after. The Turkey Girl is a poor young woman who herds turkeys for a living. One day a huge gobbler surprises her by speaking and promising that she shall go to a special dance.

Ella Enchanted (2004), a fantasy retelling featuring Anne Hathaway, which is based on the 1997 novel of the same name. Ben-Amos, D. "Straparola: The Revolution That Was Not". In: The Journal of American Folklore. Vol. 123. No. 490 (Fall 2010). pp. 439–440. JSTOR [1] Another well-known version was recorded by the German brothers Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm in the 19th century. The tale is called "Aschenputtel" or "Ashputtle" or "Ashputtel" [“The Little Ash Girl”] or "Cinderella" in English translations). This version is much more violent than that of Charles Perrault and Disney, in that Cinderella's father has not died and the two stepsisters mutilate their feet to fit in the golden slipper. There is no fairy godmother in this version of the Brothers Grimm, but rather help comes from a wishing tree, which the heroine had planted on her deceased mother's grave, when she recites a certain chant. In the second edition of their collection (1819), the Brothers Grimm supplemented the original 1812 version with a coda in which the two stepsisters suffer a terrible punishment by the princess Cinderella for their cruelty.

My three-year-old asked me to read him this silly version many times. Prince Cinders is a “small, spotty, scruffy, and skinny” prince with three big hair brothers. The twelfth-century AD lai of Le Fresne ("The Ash-Tree Girl"), retold by Marie de France, is a variant of the "Cinderella" story [9] :41 in which a wealthy noblewoman abandons her infant daughter at the base of an ash tree outside a nunnery with a ring and brocade as tokens of her identity [9] :41 because she is one of twin sisters [9] :41—the mother fears that she will be accused of infidelity [9] :41 (according to popular belief, twins were evidence of two different fathers). [15] The infant is discovered by the porter, who names her Fresne, meaning "Ash Tree", [9] :41 and she is raised by the nuns. [9] :41 After she has attained maturity, a young nobleman sees her and becomes her lover. [9] :41 The nobleman, however, is forced to marry a woman of noble birth. [9] :41 Fresne accepts that she will never marry her beloved [9] :41 but waits in the wedding chamber as a handmaiden. [9] :41 She covers the bed with her own brocade [9] :41 but, unbeknownst to her, her beloved's bride is actually her twin sister, [9] :41 and her mother recognizes the brocade as the same one she had given to the daughter she had abandoned so many years before. [9] :41 Fresne's true parentage is revealed [9] :41 and, as a result of her noble birth, she is allowed to marry her beloved, [9] :41 while her twin sister is married to a different nobleman.
