Download or read book The Maze of Fantasy in Tamil Folktales written by Gabriella Eichinger Ferro-Luzzi and published by Otto Harrassowitz Verlag. This book was released on 2002 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book pursues an ethnographic and a theoretical purpose. The ethnographic first part examines how Tamil folktales, mostly gathered and published by Tamil authors, reflect Tamil culture. However, since the narrators want to amuse their listeners and arouse their interest they tend to exaggerate or invert the normal situation. Therefore, their tales reflect more reliably Tamil values, beliefs and interest than social behaviour. The second theoretical part stresses the importance of the actually occuring motifs and casts doubt on typology. Rather than artificially distinguishing tale types, often thought to exist independent of the narrators, it points out a network of thematic connections among Tamil folktales.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is no motive without a reason. Just like a coin has two sides, every word’s meaning has its own understanding. To the best of my ability and in order to put forth an important ideology across, I have managed to analyze and interpret certain happenings with different interpretations and connotations. We know that several rivers and numerous waterfalls merge into the sea, but where are these diverse set of characters and small stories travelling towards? Will they all meet at the point of destruction or creation? Nowadays, with almost everything coming under the radar, what if there is a significant something which has still managed to escaped this, trying to take over creation? It is the destructive poison Halahal, which is extremely powerful, and even the Devas and Demons hide themselves in fear! What if this poison is about to devastate the earth? This full-fledged war is between the forces of the endless energy on one side and an army of absolute supremacy on the other – and the self-centered citizens of the world helplessly watch whatever is happening. Who will win this war? Everyone needs a saviour now just like Neelkant, who will come to protect the people? This is what Aalakaalan is about
