Translated title:
The poetics of the modern Greek folk tale. Fairytale types and motifs in texts of modern Greek literature
Summary:
The present dissertation attempts to deal with the poetics of the modern Greek folk tale as a kind of popular literary creation, since it constitutes the subject of study of folklore, philological, anthropological but also psychological and pedagogical research. Taking as starting point the origin of the fairy tale narration and its relationship with the myth, it is clearly understood that they have a parallel course until today, as myth and fairy tale continue to be reproduced following the respective social changes. In this context, its evolutionary course over time is examined, as well as the poetic and ideological conventions that make it a literary work. Efforts are also being made to explore the issue of orality and literacy of the literature and aesthetics of the folk tale, without failing to refer to issues related to the structural elements of the fairy tale such as the "theme" and the "motif", its morphological elements, the function of the characters, as well as to issues concerning the species and the classification of the folk tale. The relation of literature with folklore, myth and tradition is approached through the intertextual relations of the orality of the folk tale with authors and texts of modern Greek literature, where types and motifs of the fairy tale narration are recorded. At this point we should note that the reference to specific writers and genres is indicative and includes different literary generations and literary genres and is not a systematic investigation of a particular period or author, which could be a field of future research.
