The humility in Aschenputtel was very high unlike every stepmother in every tale. In Aschenputtel the story even says “The new wife was wicked and ugly”. The stepdaughters in each novel were mean and arrogant. In contrast, one of the stepsisters in Ever After (jacqueline) was nice to Danielle yet their was still the stingy step-mother and greedy marguerite the step-sister.

The purpose of Jonathan Edwards in delivering this famous sermon, “Sinners in the hands of an Angry God” is to persuade his listeners to turn to Christ before it was too late. He used fear to appeal his audience by showing them the image of hell and how God was angry at them.
