Also, it aims at analyzing the purposes of such changes. The study is qualitative-based research, and the analysis was done by examining the intrinsic parts of the works, such us characters and the setting of places. The extrinsic approaches were employed where New Historicism was needed as a theoretical framework. The results show that the reconstruction of the character Aladdin and changing the setting of place from China to a fictional place, a city of Agrabah obviously occurs.
