In recent work I have spoken quietly ... but I realized not to have well- explained what a fairy tale, although I can imagine that many of you already have an idea.
Alice in Mervaiglie, Little Red Riding Hood, Pinocchio, Beauty and the Beast, and many other stories within the genre of the tale, which is part of the collective culture, traditions and origins peoples. Fairy tales have been passed down orally from generation to generation for centuries, and who handed down often modified by adding or removing parts, to ensure that best describes the life of the poor. There were people, however, who have collected and transcribed: to remember are Collodi, infector of "Pinocchio," James Matthew Barrie, author of "Peter Pan", Hans Christian Andersen, the Brothers Grimm.
Nowadays the literary fairy tale was addressed only the child, previously, however, was an entertainment for adults and had great importance for the life of the community as broadcasting values.
features that can be encounter are similar in all fairy tales: the characters, places and times are referred to generically and are not discussed, because there are phrases like "Once upon a time ..."," In a country far away ... " but does not say where or when, in addition, the facts that appear in the account are made impossible, and the characters unbelievable. Moreover, the world is mostly represented divided into two: the characters are either good or bad, or stupid or smart, or beautiful or ugly, there is no way of means. The story always ends with a happy ending and a moral, which teaches many values, leaving also the reader with every decision. The language used in the tale is typical of popular novelists.
"In the manifesto the stories have little to teach us about the specific conditions of life in modern mass society, these stories were created long before his arrival. [..] Through centuries during which, with subsequent revisions, became increasingly sophisticated, the stories came to be transmitted at the same time, overt and veiled meanings. [...] Applying the psychoanalytic model of personality 'human, fairy tales carry important messages to the conscious mind , preconscious and subconscious, at whatever level each is functioning at that time. These stories deal with problems universal human, especially those that preoccupy the mind of the child. "
