Fantasy stories and the subgenre of fairy tales in particular are very singular texts that have readers all around the world enthralled. The fairy tale's appeal lies in part in its unique representation of psychological developmental processes. This study aims on the one hand at exploring the process of maturation and integration of the Self of the tales‟ heroes, and on the other hand, at examining how this transformation is rendered through specific narrative structures and functions. The corpus of the study consists of a selection of nine classical literary fairy tales collected by the Scottish author Andrew Lang 1905, 1907, 1921). The selected fairy tales are first classified according to Christopher Booker's (2004) seven basic plots of fiction. Then the tales are subjected to an analysis of plot functions borrowed from Vladimir Propp's (1968) morphological model of fairy tales. Results suggest that hero's growth occurs either through active interaction with the outside world or by retreating into themselves. These two opposing tendencies are expressed through different narrative means. |
