In his first appearance, the Scarecrow reveals that he lacks a brain and desires above all else to have one. In reality, he is only two days old and merely <a href="/wiki/Naivety" title="Naivety">naïve</a>. Throughout the course of the novel, he proves to have the brains he seeks and is later recognized as "the wisest man in all of Oz," although he continues to credit the Wizard for them. He is, however, wise enough to know his own limitations and all too happy to hand the rulership of Oz to <a href="/wiki/Princess_Ozma" title="Princess Ozma">Princess Ozma</a> and become one of her trusted advisors, though he typically spends more time having fun than advising. </p> <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r886046785">.mw-parser-output .toclimit-2 .toclevel-1 ul,.mw-parser-output .toclimit-3 .toclevel-2 ul,.mw-parser-output .toclimit-4 .toclevel-3 ul,.mw-parser-output .toclimit-5 .toclevel-4 ul,.mw-parser-output .toclimit-6 .toclevel-5 ul,.mw-parser-output .toclimit-7 .toclevel-6 ul{display:none}</style><div class="toclimit-3"><meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Character_biography">Character biography</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Scarecrow_(Oz)&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Character biography"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="In_The_Wonderful_Wizard_of_Oz">In <i>The Wonderful Wizard of Oz</i></h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Scarecrow_(Oz)&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: In The Wonderful Wizard of Oz"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>In Baum's classic 1900 novel <i><a href="/wiki/The_Wonderful_Wizard_of_Oz" title="The Wonderful Wizard of Oz">The Wonderful Wizard of Oz</a></i>, the living <a href="/wiki/Scarecrow" title="Scarecrow">scarecrow</a> encounters <a href="/wiki/Dorothy_Gale" title="Dorothy Gale">Dorothy Gale</a> in a field in the <a href="/wiki/Munchkin" title="Munchkin">Munchkin</a> Country while she is on her way to the <a href="/wiki/Emerald_City" title="Emerald City">Emerald City</a>. He tells her about his creation and of how he at first scared away the crows, before an older one realized he was a straw man, causing the other crows to start eating the corn. The old crow then told the Scarecrow about the importance of brains. The "mindless" Scarecrow joins Dorothy in the hope that <a href="/wiki/Wizard_of_Oz_(character)" title="Wizard of Oz (character)">The Wizard</a> will give him a brain. They are later joined by the <a href="/wiki/Tin_Woodman" title="Tin Woodman">Tin Woodman</a> and the <a href="/wiki/Cowardly_Lion" title="Cowardly Lion">Cowardly Lion</a>. When the group goes to the West, he kills the Witch's crows by breaking their necks. He is torn apart by the <a href="/wiki/Winged_monkeys" title="Winged monkeys">Flying Monkeys</a> and his clothes thrown up a tree, but when his clothes are filled with straw he is back again. After Dorothy and her friends have completed their mission to kill the <a href="/wiki/Wicked_Witch_of_the_West" title="Wicked Witch of the West">Wicked Witch of the West</a>, the Wizard gives the Scarecrow brains (made out of <a href="/wiki/Bran" title="Bran">bran</a>, pins and needles – in reality, a <a href="/wiki/Placebo" title="Placebo">placebo</a>, as he has been the most intelligent of the group all along).

He accompanies Dorothy and the others to the palace of the Good Witch of the South <a href="/wiki/Glinda_the_Good_Witch" class="mw-redirect" title="Glinda the Good Witch">Glinda</a>, and she uses the Golden Cap to summon the Winged Monkeys, who take the Scarecrow back to the Emerald City. </p><p>His desire for a brain notably contrasts with the <a href="/wiki/Tin_Woodman" title="Tin Woodman">Tin Woodman</a>'s desire for a heart, reflecting a common debate between the relative importance of the mind and emotions. Indeed, both believe they have neither. This philosophical debate between the two friends as to why their own choices are superior; neither convinces the other and Dorothy, listening, is unable to decide which one is right. Symbolically, because they remain with Dorothy throughout her quest, she is provided with both and need not select.<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Later_Oz_books">Later Oz books</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Scarecrow_(Oz)&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Later Oz books"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-default-size mw-halign-left" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Scarecrow_of_oz_cover.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/5f/Scarecrow_of_oz_cover.jpg/220px-Scarecrow_of_oz_cover.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="290" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/5/5f/Scarecrow_of_oz_cover.jpg 1.5x" data-file-width="250" data-file-height="330" /></a><figcaption>Cover of <i><a href="/wiki/The_Scarecrow_of_Oz" title="The Scarecrow of Oz">The Scarecrow of Oz</a></i> (1915) by <a href="/wiki/L._Frank_Baum" title="L.

His reign as king of the Emerald City ends in <i>The Marvelous Land of Oz</i> when General Jinjur and her Army of Revolt oust him in a coup. He manages to escape the palace and joins Tip and his companions in seeking the aid of Glinda the Good. He spars with <a href="/wiki/Woggle-Bug" title="Woggle-Bug">H. M. Woggle-Bug T. E.</a> on the value of education. Although he claims to be educated himself and to value education, he finds the Woggle-Bug's learning rote and without wisdom. Although he cannot eat, he tells <a href="/wiki/Billina" title="Billina">Billina</a> that she might be better cooked and generally seems to favor the use of animals as food, sometimes making snide remarks to that effect to his animal companions, although he himself only gathers nuts and fruit for his traveling companions, such as Dorothy and Tip, to eat. </p><p>By <i><a href="/wiki/The_Road_to_Oz" title="The Road to Oz">The Road to Oz</a></i> he is acknowledged, at least by the <a href="/wiki/Tin_Woodman" title="Tin Woodman">Tin Woodman</a>, to be "probably the wisest man in all Oz," and this is the caption of an illustration, suggesting that the reader take his comment at face value. Dorothy herself, in <i><a href="/wiki/Dorothy_and_the_Wizard_in_Oz" title="Dorothy and the Wizard in Oz">Dorothy and the Wizard in Oz</a></i>, praises the Scarecrow's wisdom and says the Scarecrow seemed just as wise before the Wizard gave him brains as after. In <i><a href="/wiki/The_Emerald_City_of_Oz" title="The Emerald City of Oz">The Emerald City of Oz</a></i>, the Scarecrow lives in a house-shaped like an ear of corn in <a href="/wiki/Winkie_Country" title="Winkie Country">Winkie Country</a>. In <i><a href="/wiki/The_Scarecrow_of_Oz" title="The Scarecrow of Oz">The Scarecrow of Oz</a></i>, the Scarecrow travels to Jinxland, where he helps Cap'n Bill, <a href="/wiki/Trot_(Oz)" class="mw-redirect" title="Trot (Oz)">Trot</a> and <a href="/wiki/Button-Bright" class="mw-redirect" title="Button-Bright">Button-Bright</a> overthrow the villainous King Krewl. In <i><a href="/wiki/Glinda_of_Oz" title="Glinda of Oz">Glinda of Oz</a></i> the Scarecrow serves as Regent to Ozma of Oz, demonstrating that he is Ozma's third in command. Mostly all he does is play <a href="/wiki/Croquet" title="Croquet">croquet</a> until Ozma's advisers, including himself, band together for a rescue operation. </p><p>In <i><a href="/wiki/The_Royal_Book_of_Oz" title="The Royal Book of Oz">The Royal Book of Oz</a></i> by <a href="/wiki/Ruth_Plumly_Thompson" title="Ruth Plumly Thompson">Ruth Plumly Thompson</a>, Baum's authorized successor as "Royal Historian of Oz", Professor Woggle-Bug accused the Scarecrow of having no ancestry, so he returns to the pole at the cornfield where he was once hung. Sliding down it and descending underground, he first encounters the Middlings and then the Silver Islands, whose people believe themselves to be the ancestors of the <a href="/wiki/Han_Chinese" title="Han Chinese">Chinese</a>. Apparently, when Emperor Chang Wang Woe defeated the king of the Golden Islands in battle, the king hired a sorcerer to sneak into the palace and transform the Emperor into a <a href="/wiki/Crocus" title="Crocus">crocus</a>, which later sprouted into a bean pole, preceding a prophecy that the first being to touch the bean pole would become possessed by the spirit of the Emperor. As it turned out, the first thing to touch the pole was the straw-stuffed human, which would become the Scarecrow. This account is not consistent with the Scarecrow's story in <i>The Wonderful Wizard of Oz</i> of becoming aware of each sense as the relevant organs were painted on his head. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Scholarly_interpretations">Scholarly interpretations</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Scarecrow_(Oz)&action=edit&section=4" title="Edit section: Scholarly interpretations"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1236090951">.mw-parser-output .hatnote{font-style:italic}.mw-parser-output div.hatnote{padding-left:1.6em;margin-bottom:0.5em}.mw-parser-output .hatnote i{font-style:normal}.mw-parser-output .hatnote+link+.hatnote{margin-top:-0.5em}@media print{body.ns-0 .mw-parser-output .hatnote{display:none!important}}</style><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main article: <a href="/wiki/Political_interpretations_of_The_Wonderful_Wizard_of_Oz" title="Political interpretations of The Wonderful Wizard of Oz">Political interpretations of The Wonderful Wizard of Oz</a></div> <table align="right"> <tbody><tr> <td><figure typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Dorothy_and_the_Scarecrow_1900.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/83/Dorothy_and_the_Scarecrow_1900.jpg/200px-Dorothy_and_the_Scarecrow_1900.jpg" decoding="async" width="200" height="265" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/83/Dorothy_and_the_Scarecrow_1900.jpg/300px-Dorothy_and_the_Scarecrow_1900.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/83/Dorothy_and_the_Scarecrow_1900.jpg/400px-Dorothy_and_the_Scarecrow_1900.jpg 2x" data-file-width="483" data-file-height="640" /></a><figcaption>Denslow's drawing of scarecrow hung up on a pole and helpless, from the first edition of the book, 1900</figcaption></figure> </td></tr></tbody></table> <p>Economics and history professors have published scholarly studies that indicate the images and characters used by Baum and Denslow closely resembled political images that were well known in the 1890s. The Scarecrow, like other characters and elements in <i>The Wonderful Wizard of Oz</i>, was a common theme found in editorial cartoons of the previous decade. Baum and Denslow, like most writers, used the materials at hand that they knew best. They built a story around them, added Dorothy, and added a series of lessons to the effect that everyone possesses the resources they need (such as brains, a heart, and courage) if only they had <a href="/wiki/Self-confidence" class="mw-redirect" title="Self-confidence">self-confidence</a>. Although it was a children's book, of course, Baum noted in the preface that it was a "modernized" fairy tale as well. </p><p>Those who interpret <i>The Wonderful Wizard of Oz</i> as a political allegory often see the Scarecrow, a central figure, as a reflection of the popular image of the American farmer— although he has been persuaded that he is only a stupid <a href="/wiki/Yokel" title="Yokel">hick</a>, he possesses common sense, logic and a quick wit that needs only to be reinforced by self-confidence. </p><p>The blackface minstrel star <a href="/wiki/Fred_Stone" title="Fred Stone">Fred Stone</a> was the first to play the Scarecrow on stage, and he brought his minstrel style of performance to the role of the Scarecrow. Baum was delighted with Stone's performance, and he wrote subsequent Oz books with Stone's minstrel-style in mind.<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span

Fiyero takes a special interest in Elphaba. However, he is highly sought after by Elphaba's roommate, Glinda. Fiyero and Elphaba share a secret romance, and when she leaves for the Emerald City, he gives her a long and meaningful goodbye. Many years later, after Elphaba goes into hiding, we are shown that Glinda and Fiyero are to be wed. However, this is not because of love, at least not on Fiyero's part, for he still loves Elphaba. Once she reappears in the Emerald City, they escape together, much to Glinda's discontent. Elphaba then goes to the site of her sister's death (Dorothy's arrival into Oz). Here she is ambushed by guards, and about to be taken away when Fiyero saves her, but he is merely sacrificing himself to save her. Elphaba in a fit of rage and heartbreak reads a spell to keep Fiyero safe, with the words of the spell including pleas to let him feel no pain and never die however they try to destroy him. Although Elphaba abandons the spell as she believes it is not working, it is not until the end of the production that we are shown that Fiyero is still alive, and has been transformed into the Scarecrow from "The Wonderful Wizard of Oz".</li> <li>The Scarecrow is made a more prominent character in its <a href="/wiki/Broadway_theatre" title="Broadway theatre">Broadway musical</a> adaptation <i><a href="/wiki/Wicked_(musical)" title="Wicked (musical)">Wicked</a></i>.

In the musical, the Fiyero-Scarecrow's appearance and style of walking are based on Bolger's portrayal of the Scarecrow in the 1939 film.</li></ul> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Comic_books_and_novels">Comic books and novels</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Scarecrow_(Oz)&action=edit&section=10" title="Edit section: Comic books and novels"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <ul><li>A character inspired by the Scarecrow appears in Alan Moore's <i><a href="/wiki/Lost_Girls_(graphic_novel)" title="Lost Girls (graphic novel)">Lost Girls</a></i>.
