Perspectives on East and Southeast Asian Folktales is a
multidisciplinary examination of folktales that are unfamiliar to
Western audiences. Examining folktales from countries like Vietnam,
Laos, Cambodia, Burma, China, Japan, and Korea, the contributors
consider various aspects, including identity issues, relationship
to idioms and narrative structure, morals, collectivism, violence,
scatological references, language socialization, representation of
Buddhist values, and emotional competence. . Highlighting
differences and similarities between East and Southeast Asian and
Western folktales, this volume promotes memorable understanding of
East and Southeast Asian cultures and their oral traditions.
