摘要

摘要:与童话网络类似，传说网络为文学和媒介叙事中的传说和基于传说的叙事的讲述者、作者、听者和读者提供了共同的世界观和对世界观的反思性批判。本文考察了凯伦·乔伊·福勒在她的小说《萨拉·卡纳利》、《甜心季节》和《努恩姐姐》中对传奇网络的参与。福勒融合了大量的历史和当代传说，有时包括超自然的主题，强调了作为认识论探索和社会批判形式的显性操作(对传说的信仰)。传说网创造了一种好奇、模仿和怀疑的美学。

Legend Webs: Karen Joy Fowler's Ostensive Critique of American Society

Abstract:Similarly to the fairy-tale web, legend webs constitute shared worldviews and self-reflexive critiques of worldviews for tellers, writers, auditors, and readers of legends and legend-based narratives as found in literature and mediated narrative. This article examines Karen Joy Fowler's engagement in legend webs in her novels Sarah Canary, The Sweetheart Season, and Sister Noon. Fowler incorporates numerous historical and contemporary legends, sometimes including supernatural motifs, highlighting the operation of ostension (acting on belief in legend) as a form of epistemological inquiry and societal critique. Legend webs create an aesthetics of curiosity, parody, and doubt.

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.
