Resumo

The Fairy Tales are classics of Children’s books that cross centuries, frontiers and languages reproducing subjects and characters in the lives of most children, as well as interfering in adult’s world. This genre of Literature has particular elements to reach its targets. It can reach their pre-conscious or even unconscious mind level to help them dealing with internal conflicts. It is possible to note how the Fairy Tales exceeds the pages of books, rewriting their narratives in other formats, reorganizing languages and characters according to the time they are insert. And so, they take part in the imaginary of children, adolescents and adults and became an inspiration, in particular way, to the communication process. This process often appeals to culturally deep-rooted elements, which facilitates the identification between the public and what is communicated. The symbolic language does not perform only a marketing function in advertising campaigns. Besides, it performs a cultural function with its target. Then, the aim of this assignment is questioning which elements remain and which are modified to fit in with the advertising objectives of this appropriation. As long as inquire if these adaptations reinforce the creation of a magical universe in which blends imagination, fantasy and reality in the consumption process. Thus, the Little Red Riding Hood, the Snow White, Cinderella and Rapunzel can wear short skirts and have a more impudent behavior in order to relate to its teenage target. This public recognizes itself in the advertising narrative universe through a brand or a product in order to satisfy the desire to possess the “magical object” that assures the entrance in this idealized world. In this way, both narratives are sources of social representation that appeals exclusive tools to capture the attention and interest. Another aim will be doing our utmost to verifying if from the union of these tools, results a narrative that finds an easier access to the consumer desire. There is also a try to understand if the typical moral of the Fairy Tales influences the organization of sense of the advertising narrative. This way, these narratives can pass from the "Once Upon a Time ...” for the happy ending, which is, in parts, perceptible in the recurrence of the appropriation phenomenon of this subject by Advertising.
