Fairy tales surround and attract us from childhood: there any miracles come true, heroes save the world, and good always triumphs over evil. But do we really know what lies behind our favorite magical stories?
Where is the Thirtieth Kingdom located? Who is behind the images of Koshchei and Baba Yaga? How does a hut move on chicken legs and why is dead water needed for revival? The well-known philologist and folklorist V. Ya. Propp lifts the veil of secrecy and offers to understand how the meanings and archetypes of distant times are reflected in fairy tales. In his cult works on the study of the fairy tale phenomenon, 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 tales.
