Theoretical Approaches to Russian Fairy Tales

Description

I added the requirements and instructions in the pdf. It’s a fairly easy assignment but I am busy, the only thing that should remain the same is the folkloricist approach in the analysis, but another approach can be added on to flesh out points. These are the readings for the class but only one needs to be used as a reference and preferably one that works on theoretical approaches.

Bailey’s “Ivan the terrible an his sons”

Psychoanalytical approaches from Bettelheim, Von Franz, and Cashdan were readings but not any paper specifically so any paper might work for class readings.

Vladimir Propp. “The Morphology of the Folk Tale”.

Sibelan Forrester. The Wild Withc of the East in Russian Fairy Tales. just the introduction

Bruno Bettelheim. The Uses of Enchantment

This source will probably be what you choose Bruno Bettelheim. The Uses of Enchantment. “The Three Feathers: The Youngest Child as Simpleton as it talks about the the use of three brothers and it’s repetition in fairy tales, I can provide a download for almost all of these.
