Morphology of the Fairy Tale. Historical Roots of the Fairy Tale
19.99 €
Fairy tales surround and attract us since childhood: there any miracles come true, heroes save the world, and good always triumphs over evil. But do we know what is really behind our favorite magical stories?
Where is the kingdom of the Threescore Kingdom? Who is behind the images of Koschei and Baba Yaga? How does the hut on chicken legs move and why do you need dead water to revive? Famous philologist and folklorist V. Y. Propp opens the veil of mystery and offers to understand how in fairy tales reflected the meanings and archetypes of distant times. In his iconic works on the phenomenon of the fairy tale, which influenced the development of world cultural studies, psychology and philology, he explores the diversity of the magical world, the actions of heroes and the roots of fairy tale plots.
