Некоторые вопросы развития литературной сказки в грузинской и русской литературе ХIХ века

Abstract

The widely known literary fairy tale was born as a genre in Europe in the beginning of the XIX century. Almost everywhere its birth was preceded by collecting, recording, studying, processing and editing of folk tales. Russian literary fairy tale (Odoevsky, Ershov, Zhukovsky, Pushkin, Gogol, etc.) is created during this period. In the second half of XIX century, the Georgian literary fairy tale is evolved in the footsteps of these events. Similar to Russian literature, its publication precedes the publication of folklore texts. It is important to note, that unlike the Russian authors the famous Georgian writers (Akaki Tsereteli, Vazha-Pshavela ...) successfully use literary fairy tales for the artistic interpretation of the national problem. It is noteworthy, that Georgian and Russian literary fairy tales identically follow the genre-specific peculiarities and common literary tendencies.
