The Grinch Who Stole Christmas

The Grinch who steal Christmas can be explained using that Archetypal form of reprimand. Archetypal criticism focuses on the use of storyology and takes on a very creative conniption to literature. In the Grinch who stole Christmas, the Grinch is the antagonist who possesses an active hatred towards Christmas and the citizens of Who-ville.There are many questionable sections in the poem that distinguish it as a myth rather than reality. To begin with, Santa Clause and the Grinch are characters of the imagination, used in a mythical sense and never brought to reality. Secondly, the author says THENHe loaded rough bags And some old empty sacks On a ramshakle sleigh And he hitched up old Max.This means that the Grinch was intending to use his dog, max, as a reindeer. It would be physically impossible for a dog that small to hull around a sled filled with Christmas items for hours. Max was also expected to convoy the sleigh and heavy Christmas items Three thousand feet up Up the si de of spate Crumpit, which is a physically impossible task for a dog. Thereafter, the Grinch was expected to stand up in and out of chimneys all night, stealing Christmas presents as well as trees. This task is impossible, only one that a fictional character would be able to accomplish. Finally, the author says That the Grinchs small heart Grew three sizes that day It would be impossible for a heart to grow and shrink based on the amount of love and care that is shown. As you can see, the Grinch was meant to be depicted in a mythical sense. There are many flaws that do not occur with in reality. This poem is meant to be a myth to teach children not to be like the Grinch, and to love and accept everything.
