O knihe
The aim of this study is to compare prototypical characters of English and Slovak folk fairy tales. The definitions of the folk tales and the fairy tales and the history of folk tales gathering in England and Slovakia are elaborated within the first chapters. Thereafter we compare English and Slovak main characters such as young brave heroes, young women, siblings and parents. We also focus on various representatives of evil in Slovak and English tales, for instance giants, dragons, devils, stepmothers and evil wizards and afterwards we depict positive figures which are mostly represented by wise old men, women, fairies and fairy godmothers. As a result, we confront the discovered similarities and distinctions of English and Slovak fairy tales and we offer several explanations for these phenomena.
