People/readers are fin with the modification of the stories, because like Foster said "We-like the idea if a prince charming, or the healing power of tears." I know that sometimes when you're online on the subject of fairy tales, they is always a page that says "The Real Origins of..." or even "The Dark Truth behind..." I've actually opened the pages, and the stores have a lot of similarities to the fairy tales I know, which are the ones that have borrowed literature in them. The characters are all the same, they have major differences than the stories I've heard and know Foster uses Hansel and Gretel as an example. We know the story of Hansel and Gretel as "Hansel and Gretel," but it's original author titled it "The Gingerbread House," which was written in 1969. It's innovation of the story is similar to the story, but it's also very different/ Their names are different and the witch doesn't even kill the children. In the original story she kills doves, In a past chapter we have talked about how writers modernized Shakespeare, it not only happens with Shakespeare, it also happens with these kind of stories. Foster explains how the story doesn't have to be take place in a forest, it can happen in a city. Some authors do twist the stories, but like the example above some authors change the story to emphasize the fairy tale. "...fairy tales, like Shakespeare, the Bible, mythology and all other writing and telling, belong to the one big story..." Borrowed literature gives a sense of irony to the story. Sometimes we're okay with author's borrowing work, because we prefer the new story with borrowed information, than the original story. We as readers want novels to have differences and similarities which is another reason why we are okay with borrowed literature. We've already read one story over and over again, but what if we read the same story but with some changes?
