 | | The Power of Our Stories | | by Gemma Benton, Oct 2, 2008 | | We have forgotten the power of our stories; practical wisdom held and shared to help us deal with everyday problems and cyclic hardships. We have forgotten how to listen to grandma's advice saturated with practical wisdom and generations of time tested experience. Instead, we listen to today's stories loaded with cheap advice and lacking the tell-tale signs of worn wisdom. | | Comments(4) Liked It: 3 |

 | | Fairy Tales and Folklore in Modern Advertising Campaigns | | by balisunset, Aug 24, 2008 | | Folklore has long been used to attract attention in advertising slogans and texts. While proverbs, folk songs, and nursery rhymes are particularly prevalent, folktales have also been used to lure people into a purchasing choice. In fact, the “Pied Piper of Hamelin” can well be considered as a symbol of the world of advertising, with the pied piper playing his pipe ever so sweetly and the consumers following him without resisting his charming and manipulative music. | | Comments(0) Liked It: 0 |
