Fairy Tales from Tan Zhenshan in Contemporary China: An Introduction to the Translation of "A Paper Maiden Turned into a Real Wife"
Abstract:While Chinese folk and fairy tales are known for their long history and abundance, the situation of storytelling and new fairy tales in the twenty-first century is hardly discussed in English-language publications due to the fact that very few contemporary tales have been translated and very few storytellers are introduced or studied beyond the Chinese context. This short essay and translation introduce the storyteller Tan Zhenshan and one tale told by him, hoping to attract more attention to contemporary Chinese folktales and fairy tales.
期刊介绍:
Marvels & Tales (ISSN: 1521-4281) was founded in 1987 by Jacques Barchilon at the University of Colorado, Boulder. Originally known as Merveilles & contes, the journal expressed its role as an international forum for folktale and fairy-tale scholarship through its various aliases: Wunder & Märchen, Maravillas & Cuentos, Meraviglie & Racconti, and Marvels & Tales. In 1997, the journal moved to Wayne State University Press and took the definitive title Marvels & Tales: Journal of Fairy-Tale Studies. From the start, Marvels & Tales has served as a central forum for the multidisciplinary study of fairy tales. In its pages, contributors from around the globe have published studies, texts, and translations of fairy-tales from Europe, North America, Asia, and Africa. The Editorial Policy of Marvels & Tales encourages scholarship that introduces new areas of fairy-tale scholarship, as well as research that considers the traditional fairy-tale canon from new perspectives. The journal''s special issues have been particularly popular and have focused on topics such as "Beauty and the Beast," "The Romantic Tale," "Charles Perrault," "Marriage Tests and Marriage Quest in African Oral Literature," "The Italian Tale," and "Angela Carter and the Literary Märchen." Marvels & Tales is published every April and October by Wayne State University Press.
