Chapter 4.5: Vladimir Propp, the structure of fairy tales 

The explanations are clear and easily understandable. The presentation is interesting and not boring at all. Thank you

I have watched many teachers on RU-vid , but nobody has explained as clearly as you

These lectures are, in lack of a better word - amazeballs.

So clear and brilliant. Thank you!

Well done, sir. Very nice, concise, easy to digest language that can be consumed almost instantly.

Thank you ! Very informative, clear and succinct explanation of Propp's theory.

I appreciate so much that you say Propp's morphology can be applied to movies with a such manichaean depiction about plot characters: who is the good guy and the bad guy, plus the damsel in distress. It is so like the simple concept of the world most kids do have: good/bad, black/white, male/female, etc. That's why fairytale is the best genre in literature for them, for the kids: they love to see heroes defeating evil people with strength and magic powers, just like in Disney or Marvel movies!

The explanations are clear and easily understandable.

I learned about Propp from a song (Common Sense - Bitter) and now i'm hooked!

Thank you so much for such a clear and detailed presentation on Morphology of the Folktale. Your presentation was a great help for me since I am doing my research on Proppian analysis. Once again, ty

Thank you so much for your very detailed and to the point explanation. ✨

Very good short-lecture! I used in my English course at gymnasium with great effect to complement my presentation to narratology.

This is a flawless explanation about Vlarimir Propp's structures of fairy tales.

Thank you!

Amazing! thank you!

I really enjoyed your explanation!!! I would like to write and illustrate a fairy tale, but I need to study a bit first, thank you very much!

I’ve been looking, with incredible difficulty, for the Literary Theory for Folklore/Fairytales, with pretty much no luck. My professor threw up some sites that are supposed to have (by my understanding), sources to the literary theories we are to present- EXCEPT FOLKLORE/FAIRYTALES. I’ve been stressing so much trying to find what I need, and so far, the web’s given me Vladimir Propp’s “Character Theory”. I have no clue if that’s the same thing, my teacher hasn’t told me at all, I have NO CLUE what to do. I’m at a total loss and that’s all I’ve got. I am incredibly stressed right now, and this is all I have to roll with. Thanks for the video.

O-la-la, what we have here at the end? Hidden Rolan Bartes' quotation in Propp video, such a gourmet... Just a joke, excuse me. Well composed material and generally well done. Thank you.

the structure you can find in every story, like the grammarian wanting to dissect sentences it into their linguistic components; dissect fairy tales into components; fairy tales have a pretty determinate structure beneath the surface differences; carried away into another kingdom; two characters fulfilling the same roles; the hero and the donor giving him an object; a reception of a magical thing; systematically investigate all the roles in fairy tales: seven types of characters: dispatcher, helper, donor, false hero but hero, princess, and villain are most important; what makes a hero a hero? he struggles against the villain to rescue the princess; plays a certain role in the whole structure of the fairy tale along with all the roles of the characters in the tale; fairy tales as a genre; narrative functions, the general plot events: receipt of a magical agent, guidance, interdiction, and violation; interdiction; hero is warned not to do something; violation: a scene when the interdiction is violated; interdiction requires violation in a fairy tale; combinations of functions of the fairy tale genre; which combinations of story functions creates a well-formed fairy tale? roles of characters and narrative structure; genres with rigid conventions; things often are what they are as a result of the role they play in a bigger structure

very nice please give some more knowledge shall be thankful to you

Hopefully the almighty will show you all the right way to reach the right path of life

Propp's morphology can be applied to The Bible which is terribly interesting.

My Professor made me watch this.

Just devoured those few vids. Any on post-structuralism?

Just listened to an Italian folk tale called The man who only came out at night. There is an interdiction but no violation?

If we wanna put this theory in not fairytales. How about it? There is a reference, wrote that vladimir propp is in naratology's theory. Is this true? @Leiden university

Hi, I''m curious about the structure of Little Red Riding Hood. There is no princess to rescue.... But the girl struggles with the villain to make it to her grandma's house.

if james bond gets an exploding phone IT WILL explode lmao

if all fairy tales have a hero, a princess and a villain, who is the hero in Snow White?

Will there be Turkish translation?

The hero and the doe noar

For true : I detest dystopia....

Thank you russian jesus

Princess does not have to be a female? Wouldn't he then be a prince? Surely, to be a princess you must be a female, no?

What is he saying it's totally weired

大哥，能有啥你不懂的吗
