	Hans Christian Andersen : The Little Mermaid :: www.andersen.sdu.dk :: The Hans Christian Andersen Center
		One of them made her little flower bed in the shape of a whale, another thought it neater to shape hers like a little mermaid, but the youngest of them made hers as round as the sun, and there she grew only flowers which were as red as the sun itself.
		The little mermaid swam right up to the window of the main cabin, and each time she rose with the swell she could peep in through the clear glass panes at the crowd of brilliantly dressed people within.
		The little mermaid, clothed in silk and cloth of gold, held the bride's train, but she was deaf to the wedding march and blind to the holy ritual.

	Hans Christian Andersen: The Little Mermaid
		The little mermaid now perceived that the crew were in danger; even she herself was obliged to be careful to avoid the beams and planks of the wreck which lay scattered on the water.
		The little mermaid swam out farther from the shore and placed herself between some high rocks that rose out of the water; then she covered her head and neck with the foam of the sea so that her little face might not be seen, and watched to see what would become of the poor prince.
		The little mermaid, dressed in silk and gold, held up the bride’s train; but her ears heard nothing of the festive music, and her eyes saw not the holy ceremony; she thought of the night of death which was coming to her, and of all she had lost in the world.

	SurLaLune Fairy Tales: The Annotated Little Mermaid
		The little mermaid swam close to the cabin windows; and now and then, as the waves lifted her up, she could look in through clear glass window-panes,17 and see a number of well-dressed people within.
		The mermaid kissed his high, smooth forehead, and stroked back his wet hair; he seemed to her like the marble statue in her little garden, and she kissed him again, and wished20 that he might live.
		She was in his thoughts, and the knife trembled in the hand of the little mermaid: then she flung it far away from her into the waves;37 the water turned red where it fell, and the drops that spurted up looked like blood.

	THE "LITTLE MERMAID" AND THE ARCHETYPE OF THE LOST "BRIDE" by Margaret Starbird
		An interesting aside is that the Merovingian bloodline, identified as the "vine of Mary" in the heresy of the Holy Grail, is said to have had a mermaid as a progenitoress and to be descended from a king "Merovee" who was half man, half fish.
		Mermaids are prominent among the medieval watermarks related to the heresy of the bloodline, and some are rendered with the fleur-de-lis of the Merovingians entwined around their double tails.
		How interesting that the image of the little mermaid, with the MM's of Mary Magdalene formed at the ends of her two tails and in her crown, is posted at streetcorners worldwide in the form of the Starbucks® logo!

	The Little Mermaid
		Her fascination with the surface world predates her meeting the prince and is in fact responsible for placing her where she can fall in love; her desire for the prince and for a soul leads her to seek out the sea hag on her own (in contrast to the Disney film).
		In Andersen, the mermaid's erotic prospects never have a chance - the inevitable heartache of human love, which Andersen knew firsthand, means that she is destined not simply to be rejected, she is ignored by the object of her desire.
		Warner notes the link between the mermaid's voice and her feminine power, drawing analogies to the Odyssey's sirens; we might also not a connection to the myth of Philomel, whose tongue is similarly cut out.

	The Little Mermaid Symbolism
		One family of ancient mermaids, the Nereids were protective of sailors, and reserved their beautiful singing voices to entertain their father, unlike the dangerous Sirens who ensnared sailors with their enchanting voices and lured them to watery deaths.
		Mermaid carvings figured prominently in church decorations in the Middle Ages to symbolically serve as a vivid reminder of the fatal temptations of the flesh.
		One method for a mermaid to gain a soul was to marry a human being; the best known form of this legend is Hans Christian Anderson's 'Little Mermaid', recently popularized once again, and sanitized of the darker aspects of the legend, by Disney.

	The Little Mermaid: Platinum Edition (1989)
		Ariel, a fun-loving and mischievous mermaid, is off on the adventure of a lifetime with her best friend, the adorable Flounder, and the reggae-singing Caribbean crab Sebastian at her side.
		Mermaid’s Ariel doesn’t really belong to the new class of Disney heroine, but she doesn’t fit in neatly with the older gals either.
		Benson feels a little thin as Ariel, but that fits the character fairly well, since Ariel’s little more than a headstrong teen; we don’t expect her to be a very strong or forceful role.

		In the tale of a headstrong young mermaid who yearns to "spend a day, warm on the sand", Ariel trades her voice to Ursula, the Sea Witch (classically voiced by Pat Carroll), for a pair of legs.
		The Little Mermaid is typical of its genre; it has a certain charm which draws the children (and parents) into watching it.
		And the one of little mermaids strongest points for me is the animation, even before the digitally remastered version came out the animation was incredible.

		Rumors started circulating shortly after the release of the videocassette edition of The Little Mermaid that the phallic object had been deliberately drawn as a last act of defiance by a disgruntled Disney artist who was miffed at being notified that he would be laid off at the conclusion of the project.
		The plain truth is that the resemblance between the castle spire and a penis was purely accidental, and it was drawn by an artist who was neither disgruntled nor about to be dismissed.
		The alleged "phallic symbol" in The Little Mermaid's artwork went undetected by the general public for about a year while the film was in the theatrical release.
