For example, when Max wears a wolf outfit that has a denotative meaning as a costume, but its connotative meaning shows the instinct of freedom and wildness, while mythologically it can be seen as a symbol of the transition from the obedient world of children to the controlled wild world.	cache/ideas-7480.pdf	txt/ideas-7480.txt
