"Wolf-Alice"

"They found that, if she was treated with a little kindness, she was not intractable."

Despite the fact that the child was clearly far more at home and adapted to the wilderness, the people who find her in the wolves's den attempt to conform her into their perception of a "normal" person, taking her to nuns who force her into clothing and "civilized" table manners. The tale "Wolf-Alice" is a display of the enforcement of majority values on a minority. They aren't even kind about their treatment of the wild girl, they have to find what the effects are of kindness, as opposed to simply treating her nicely in the first place, before they can get her to do their will. The story is an accurate show of the human desire for normalcy, and how desperately people will fight for the normalcy they so crave.
