Thompson Stith
La fiaba nella tradizione popolare
br. Per almeno tre o quattro millenni, e certo in lunghe epoche precedenti, l'arte del fabulare è stata protagonista della vita sociale dell'umanità. Ulisse intrattiene la corte di Alcinoo con il racconto delle sue incredibili avventure; secoli più tardi, i preti condiscono i loro sermoni di aneddoti, mentre un paggio legge nottetempo romanzi cavallereschi alla sua signora per divertirla in attesa che torni il signore lontano, in crociata; il vecchio contadino inganna le serate invernali con racconti di eroi, magie e avversari soprannaturali, e le bambinaie narrano ai pargoli la fiaba di Raperonzolo; in tempi più recenti, nei fumoirs dei vagoni letto e delle navi e attorno alle tavole dei banchetti fiorisce l'aneddoto orale di un'età nuova. Nella "Fiaba nella tradizione popolare" Thompson, maestro di folclore, esamina il campo della fiaba tramandata di generazione in generazione, per iscritto o oralmente. Rileva l'importanza della tradizione favolistica sia come forma d'arte vitale per la civiltà e base della narrativa letteraria, sia come sostanzioso indice socioculturale. Passa in rassegna le grandi fiabe popolari di tutto il mondo, con la loro storia, la loro diffusione e le loro varianti, dall'antichità classica all'Italia di Straparola e del Pentamerone di Basile, dall'Irlanda all'Estremo Oriente, fino ai miti degli indiani del Nordamerica.
