Cox) is historical character from the real world. Despite rather schematic briefness and selective partialness author points out that initiative of M. R. Cox unfolded (on rich material of stories about Cinderella) still lively and expanding territory for several disciplines – from ethnography through cultural anthropology to literary history. This territory relates to most fundamental, universal archetypes of human worldview and orientation in it, with the key role played by feminine principle.
