a communication theory that states society and individuals are created based upon the interactions between each other. One Disney movie that stands out is Aladdin. I feel this movie does a great job of providing examples of symbolic interactionism. My plan is to discuss symbolic interaction and provide examples of the theory.

Not only falsely representing that culture, but also demeaning its actual traditions and values. In Aladdin, Islam and the middle eastern religious background is belittled and mocked tremendously. From the very first scene, the theme of a barbaric land is established, and lyrics come over the speakers in the original opening song: “Where they cut off your

stereotypical way. An example of orientalism is the children’s movie Aladdin which takes place in Saudi Arabia and depicts a very limited range in character arcs. Filled with mysticism of genies and magic carpets, the characterization of women in the orient as seductive and depicted in minimalistic clothing and the manifestation of a harsh judicial system in which you receive extreme punishment for something as simple as stealing and apple Aladdin is filled with western stereotypes of Middle Eastern life.

By exploring the pivotal themes cloaked in the tongue and cheek snark in Oscar Wilde’s The Importance of Being Earnest and Walt Disney’s Aladdin, this essay will encompass the coinciding theme of personal navigation amongst different social classes as displayed through the emphasis of homogamy in society and the subsequent motivations for duplicity. The play, The Importance of Being Earnest is a comedy of manners, which focuses on two gentlemen, John Worthing and Algernon Moncrieff, who both claim
