Part 3 of Habermany the Serpent Prince
Part two of Haberman the Serpent Prince
This is a tale from Armenia. Notice how it is similar and different to Yasmin and the Serpent Prince. What else do you notice? What do you wonder? And what are you reminded of?
This is part 2 of Yasmin and the Serpent Prince. I would love to hear about all the connections to other stories you make!
10.3.24 I am so sorry - somehow I had uploaded part 1 again instead of part 2. I have corrected the file now so enjoy part 2!
This is part 1 of Yasmin and the Serpent Prince, as told in Folk Tales of Ancient Persia. This tale will probably remind you of many Bible stories, fairy tales, and literary fairy tales, so pay attention to what you notice, what you wonder, and what it reminds you of!
The Wishes of Savitri is a fairy tale and trickster tale from India. Enjoy!
The Adventures of Little Pea is a story from Persia as retold in Folk Tales of Ancient Persia.
It is a fairy tale with a parent and child separation and restoration with a feast at the end, and the defeat of the bad characters. It is also a trickster tale. Sometimes we think of tricksters as the bad character in a story, and sometimes they are! But other times the trickster is someone with cunning who uses their wits to outsmart the wicked characters. As you listen to this story, and the next story called The Wishes of Savitri, you can think about other stories they remind you of. Are there good tricksters in the Bible?
This story is from the Arabian Nights, retold in The Blue Fairy Book. This retelling combines several stories about Aladdin. What are some of the things you have noticed about the Persian stories we have been reading? Are you seeing repeated things? Do they remind you of other stories?
This is the second part of the frame story for 1001 Days, as retold by Willi Fehse. This one is quite long because it has stories within stories - pay attention when you are listening to any story and the story teller tells a new story within his story! It is always important!
