Hardcover. Condition: Fine. 322 pp., bibliography. "Finnish fairy tales represent the northern branch of the Western European fairy-tale tradition. Although Finnish epic folklore and mythology have been objects of great research interest, Finnish fairy tales have been studied surprisingly little. This study answers not only meth…odological but also the most important empirical questions, such as: what are the themes, plots and characters which have been able to entertain both fairy-tale tellers and their listeners from one generation to the next? How can these contentual elements be understood and interpreted within the framework of traditional Finnish folk culture? The methodological issues dealt with here include the question of how to approach traditional folklore material recorded in the 1800s, of which there is an enormous amount but very little accompanying contextual information. In order to analyse the contents of the tales, this study suggests the use of several semantic levels of abstraction as well as the systematic analysis of variation; only then is it feasible to present macrocontextual, interpretive hypotheses in which narrative and cultural structures are examined side by side.".

Condition: new. Pages: 408 Language: Finnish. Mistä sadut tulevat? Suosituimman selityksen mukaan sadut ovat lähtöisin kansan suullisesta kerronnasta. Todellisuudessa monet klassikkosadut ovat kuitenkin päätyneet kansanperinteeseen painetun kirjallisuuden välittäminä, ja maineikkailla satukokoelmilla - muun muassa Hanhiemon sadu…illa ja Grimmin saduilla - on ollut tässä tärkeä rooli.Ihmesatujen historia käsittelee satujen ja niiden tutkimisen taustoja lajin kuuluisimpien kertomusten, niin sanottujen prinsessasatujen avulla. Elävästi kirjoitettu teos selvittää Tuhkimon, Ruususen, Lumikin, Kaunottaren ja Hirviön sekä Cupidon ja Psychen vaiheet. Näiden Suomessakin tuttujen satujen historia ulottuu aina roomalaiseen antiikkiin saakka.Satu Apo on Helsingin yliopiston folkloristiikan emeritaprofessori. Hän on julkaissut vuosikymmenten kuluessa useita alan keskeisiä perusteoksia. 9789522229267.
