Tajik women reading magic tale to her
baby, so he grow beautiful as
Majnun (Tajik interpretation of Romeo)
and strong as Ilya Murometc -
one of three Hercules's from Russian
folk tale. |
While participating
in Folk
Tales activity, students collected and
studied examples of the folklore of their country. They
researched, recorded, and analyzed these stories,
concentrating on the morals they teach and how they support
their culture's unique values and traditions. Then they
compared these tales and morals to those of their partner
country, discussing the similar themes, characters,
adventures, and the unique social aspects they reveal, as
well as the relevance of the tales and morals today.
