Fairy tale

The question of why tales of different peoples of the world are sometimes so similar, came many scientists and researchers. After numerous investigations, they agreed that the reason for the similarities of fairy tales, which were created in different parts of the world, is a common human psyche, the nature of humanity.

Referring again to the fairy tale “the Sea king and Vasilisa the wise”. Widespread English tale called “the sea king's Daughter”. Its plot boils down to the fact that the virgin seal, along with her sisters and brothers were skinned and turned into a girl of indescribable beauty. The fisherman who saw her fell in love and hid the skin, and then took the virgin as his wife. They healed together and had kids, but once the wife discovered her missing and immediately returned to the marine realm, not for a moment regretting about abandoned children. The tale ends with a sad phrase, from which tears well up. Once only looked virgin to his house, where waiting for her kids, then happily swam in the sea.

Fairy tale contrary to the spirit of the Russian reader. Unclear to us is the behavior of wives and mothers. No call of the sea a Russian woman will not replace maternal instinct.

Russian tale

Russian first tale has a similar theme. The sea king has thirteen daughters. Vasilisa the wise, one of them, when bathing removes his shirt and turns into a beautiful maiden. At this point, taught by the old Ivan takes the shirt and leaves the girl, until she calls him her soul mate. The sea king asks Ivan complex tasks and Vasilisa the Beautiful helps to their favourite run, and later – to escape home, the Holy Rus. Moreover, helping my husband, Vasilisa the wise knows that Ivan Tsarevich returned to his father's house, and immediately forget it. The opposite is true, if you sravnivali with the English tale. There the virgin for the sea throws home, children and husband, and here the Prince forgets the sea Princess with joy, returned to the Holy Russia. And only devotion to Vasilisa the wise saves their marriage. Vasilisa forgive her husband infidelity.

Many fairy tales like this one, end up being the hero with the young Vasilisa returns home. This again emphasizes the importance of family ties to the Russian people. Great value Russian man takes destiny. No wonder the husband - soul mate, the one who determined the fate.

You should Also pay attention to the fact that in the Russian fairy tale kind to this promise. Caught the sea king, an earthly king by the beard. He promised the Sea king to give what one does at home do not know. When I learned that promised to become sad. But nothing to do. A promise to perform. And the king after a certain period of time still leads the son, andthe sea king is waiting.

A Russian tale covers all aspects of human life. Passing through the centuries and the years, the tale has absorbed all the most important and integral features of Russian national character. She accompanies since childhood to late old age, makes us kinder, fairer.
