About the project

The project is devoted to the Polish folk tale, it's tradition, subject, form, the most popular plots, motives and the most significant creators and researchers. The purpose of this project is to create 'The Dictionary of the Polish folk tales' which will include entries, that make a synthetic view of the traditional Polish folk tales in the understanding of literature and culture research. Published and unpublished folk tales from various regions of Poland mainly from the 19th and 20th century are the basis of the Dictionary. Project is realized at the Nicolaus Copernicus University in Torun at the Folklore Studies and Popular Literature Section, Department of Cultural Studies (www.kulturoznawstwo.umk.pl).
