Description: Narrative Structures in Burmese Folk Tales, Hardcover by Lwin, Soe Marlar, ISBN 1604977167, ISBN-13 9781604977165, Brand New, Free shipping in the US Lwin (English language and literature, Nanyang Technical U., Singapore) specializes in narrative structures, folktales, oral storytelling, and oracy development. Here she investigates the narrative structures of the folk tales of what is now Myanmar that were collected and translated into English by Maung Htin Aung. She identifies the functional events in the tales as the basic components of a story structure, then examines how these events are linked into various plot structures in different types of tale. She also compares two structural patterns she has identified in the Burmese folk tales with patterns proposed by other studies of folk tales from other cultures, looking for how the narrative structure of a folk tale might be related to its social purpose and narrative content.
