About This Book

Esipuheessa pohditaan satujen luonnetta ja niiden merkitystä kansanmuistissa, minkä jälkeen seurataan kokoelmaa vanhanaikaisia kertomuksia, joissa arki ja yliluonnollinen lomittuvat. Tekstit ammentavat suullisesta perinteestä ja etenevät episodimaisesti: ne kuvaavat yhteisön käytäntöjä, rakkauden ja menetyksen käänteitä, pelastumisia, koston toimia ja sovintoon päätymistä sekä kohtalon ja onnen roolia. Kokonaisuus pitää yllä kertomaperinteen sävyjä ja tarjoaa lyhyitä, vaihtelevia tarinoita, jotka korostavat mielikuvituksen ja suullisen perinteen merkitystä kirjallisessa esityksessä.
