Cultural understanding through comparative studies A Sample of Comparative Analysis of Fairy-tales

Why fairy-tales? 1. A fairy tale is a fantastic narrative as old as the nation. 2. A fairy-tale reflects values and beliefs of a nation. 3. A fairy-tale as a text causes our interest and desire to share opinions.

Think and answer! 1. Does a fairy-tale present a specific genre of text? 2. Can it form human conscience? Why? 3. Can it influence one’s outlook or widen it? How? 4. What concepts are usually reflected in a fairy-tale?

Oppositions most often presented in fairy-tales Good and evil Truth and lie

The concept of native wit in Chinese-Russian-English Do you think it is equally strong in the three nations?

Take your handouts! 1. Chinese fairy-tale: Fox Basked in Tiger’s Reflected Glory. 2. Russian fairy-tale: Three Kalatches and One Baranka. 3. British fairy-tale: The Lion-Hearted Kitten.

Answer the questions! 1) In what CSF are fairy-tales written? 2) What does the plot usually center around? 3) What difficulties do the characters have to overcome? 4) Are they a success? What stages do they go through? 5) Does wit play an important role in the final victory of good over evil?
