So, Eeyore fate could be deemed a modern twist on the Tail-Fisher motif. So the motif, classified by Antti Aarne(1875-1925) and Stith Thompson (1885–1976) as AT 2, has remained but Eeyore’s back side is not an ugly sight, which it is in La Fontaine and Æsop. In fact the tail seems removable and ornamental. He feels very sorry, but no one has cut it off and Pooh goes looking for it. Not that Eeyore does not feel sorry when he is told his tail is missing. The tail is therefore returned to Eeyore and nailed back painlessly.

He visits with Owl who has found the tail in the forest and is using it to hold his door bell. On the contrary, Pooh feels sorry for Eeyore and sets about finding the missing tail. However, when Pooh notices Eeyore has lost his tail, Pooh does not express revulsion.

In which Eeyore Loses a Tail and Pooh (as of 1924) It seems that deprived of his bushy tail the fox’s rear end is not an attractive sight. However, when they ask to see the mutilated fox’s rear end, the other foxes reject the fox’s suggestion. In Jean de La Fontaine‘s Le Renard ayant la queue coupée (The Fox whose tail has been cut off), a fable based on Æsop’s The Fox Who Had Lost His Tail (Perry Index 17), a fox whose tail has been cut off would like other foxes to have theirs removed. In fact, we have already seen this variation which we could call the Missing-Tail or Severed-Tail Motif. Milne‘s Winnie-the-Pooh also contains a variation on the Tail-Fisher Motif.

Bruin’s nose is therefore “ coincé” (wedged in) and the skin comes “off his nose” when he frees himself.

The hole is kept open by wedges that are suddenly removed. But the Roman de Renart‘s Brun (Bruin) loses the skin “off his nose” when his nose gets stuck in a hole in a log where he is told, by Renart, that there is excellent honey. He simply faces the consequences of eating too much honey and drinking too much condensed milk. As we have seen, Pooh bear gets stuck in the burrow he uses when he goes visiting the rabbit and overindulges, but although he has to lose weight, he is not otherwise punished. Moreover, although archetypes tend to be reversed, children’s literature, a relatively recent literary genre, has preserved ancient motifs. Motifs: Bruin loses the Skin off his nose, not Pooh Kenneth Grahame is also the author of The Reluctant Dragon (1898). He escapes prison with the assistance of the jailer’s daughter, also a motif, and he is rehabilitated by Badger, Mole, and Rat, who would not be beautiful and “good” in a Charles Perrault fairy tale. However, he gets into trouble when he falls in love with cars to the point of stealing one and finding himself imprisoned. He is a gentleman and lives in Toad Hall. In fairy tales princes and princesses are turned into “ugly” toads, but Kenneth Grahame’s Mr Toad is not ugly. Milne‘s 1929 dramatisation of Kenneth Grahame‘s Wind in the Willows (1908). He is the future Toad of Toad Hall, who appears in A. In Kenneth Grahame‘s, Wind in the Willows (1908), Mr Toad is the anthropomorphic and gentrified hero of the novel. In modern Children’s Literature, there is a tendency to reverse archetypes.
