ENG 3660 - Folk Tales (L)

3 cr
Folk tales constitute "the bare bones of narrative"; this course examines that narrative's oral, literary, cultural, folkloric, historical, psychological, archetypal, and philosophical components, as well as tale variants-from different cultures or as adapted to other literary genres such as the short story and poetry. Both world tales and "Household Tales" of the Brothers Grimm are studied.
This course fulfills the Aesthetic Understanding or World Views Frame of Reference.
