A little more than a hundred years ago, a number of European scholars began to record stories being
told in peasant cottages and compile them into the first great collections of European folk tales. Written
evidence exists to prove that the folk tales they recorded existed long before then though. Collections of
th
th
sermons from the 12 to the 15 century show that medieval preachers knew of some of the same stories
th
as those recorded by the 19 century folklorists.
th
th
The collections of folk tales made in the late 19 and early 20 centuries provide a rare opportunity to
make contact with the illiterate masses who have disappeared into the pass without leaving a trace. To
reject folk tales as historical evidence because they cannot be dated and situated with precision like other
historical documents is to turn one‟s back on one of the few points of entry into the previous centuries. But
to attempt to penetrate that world is to face a daunting set of obstacles, the greatest of which is the
impossibility of listening in on the story tellers. No matter how accurate they may be the versions of the
tales recorded in writing cannot convey the effects that the storytellers must have used to bring the stories
to life: the dramatic pauses, the sly glances, the use of gestures to set scenes, and the use of sounds to
punctuate actions. All of those devices shaped the meaning of the tales, and all of them elude the historian.
He cannot be sure that the limp and lifeless text he holds between the covers of a book provides an
accurate account of the performance that took place in earlier times.
Question 30: The author believes that written versions of folk tales _____.
th
th
A. changed dramatically from the 19 to the 20 century.
B. are valid historical documents.
th
C. show how illiterate the masses were before the 19 century.
D. should be rejected as historical evidence.
Question 31: What problems of folk tale collections does the author discuss?
A. There is no way to tell which version of a story is the original system.
B. They contain historical inaccuracies.
C. They are used as historical evidence.
D. They don‟t preserve the original performance style of the storytellers.
