This is a pretty loose category of novels, films, poetry, songs, television, and commercials with the possibility of newer or not invented electronic media no one has seen yet. A problem seen in this is a list of canonical sources that is relevant even if others say it isn't. The diversification of the canon modern writers could not assume a common body of knowledge of any of their readers. Foster points out that fairytales, like Hansel and Gretel, all seem to lack ambiguity. For instance Hansel and Gretel play in the Gingerbread house which seems like a logical step. The witch doesn't kill the children, but the white doves who ate the bread crumbs. When the author mentions the bloody chamber it creates a subversive, feminist revisions seeing that it is an old sexist tale. Details like those don't need to pull off the story ,but only try and give it depth. In a whole picture all the writings belong to one story just broken done into different pieces. This category can find many similarities along with a lot of strangeness , but in the end it creates a perfect harmony.
