Title Statements
- Full title :The Russian folktale by Vladimir Yakovlevich Propp / edited and translated by Sibelan Forrester ; foreword by Jack Zipes.
Summary
"[The Russian Folktale is] an impressively wide-ranging work that stimulates through speculation, it provides precisely what the early elaboration of functions declaratively lacks: an etiology of genre, a broad historical perspective, analyses of individual tales, commentary on tale-tellers, engagement with previous scholarship, and examination of a sufficiently broad European context to enable thought-provoking insights into the distinctiveness of Russian folk narratives."--Helena Goscilo -- Book jacket.
