You will find quite a few interpretations on this board. But off hand, I'd say have a look at Donna Jo Napoli's novel "The Magic Circle"--now there's an alternate telling/meaning of the tale. Since the novel is a YA it won't take you very long at all to read and its quite powerful. how soon is your paper due? Given that its mid-May, I'm guessing next week?
