The Fool, the Jester, the Thief and the Devil (Historical Roots of Everyday Fairy Tales)

The only thing available 2
The author of the book explores the phenomenon of the folk domestic tale: its genesis and poetics, its relationship with reality, folklore-ethnographic ties and its influence on literature.
The researcher proves that it is in the domestic fairy tale that the phenomena that existed in the folk traditional culture and modern realities of the storyteller are naturally combined. The author managed to identify a typological commonality in the motley variety of "non-magical" "novelistic" plots of folk prose - a universal hero-trickster, for the definition of which he proposed the term "foolish-jester".
To philologists, folklorists, ethnologists, culturologists and students of humanities.
