Fairy tales are very valuable texts, but the classic fairy tales are confined to the framework of the patriarchal system. With the rise of feminist thinking, many feminist scholars have reflected on and criticized fairy tales, some of them look at fairy tales from a feminist perspective, some of them try to uncover the hidden connotations of women in fairy tales, and some of them create new fairy tales belonging to women. This study examines three Re-Vison of the classic fairy tale Beauty and the Beast. The three new texts rewrite and adapt Beauty and the Beast in various aspects. This study identifies the commonalities among these three fairy tales through comparison and delves into the core of feminist fairy tales. This study finds that these three texts coincide to a certain extent with the trend of feminist wave. Through the analysis of these three texts, this study hopes to bring new values to feminist fairy tale studies.
