LITERATURE
by: Shyla Mae P. Del Rosario
Traditional Literature encompasses
books rendered from oral tradition--
stories that have been passed down for
ages (Kiefer, 2007)--and as a result are
commonly shared throughout the world.
This literature includes folktales, myths,
fables, and legends.
FABLES are form of traditional literature.
They are short stories written in prose or
verse. The main characters are most often
anthropomorphized animals whose
behaviors demonstrate moral lessons.
Aesop was an ancient Greek storyteller born around 620 BC as a slave.
He collected stories of animals acting , or fables, have lessons, or morals,
and were retold to children during Aesop's life and to people in every
generation.
AESOP’S FABLES
These stories and legends have since then become a part of our
tradition and culture. As such, we need to respect, care for, and give
importance to these stories. With this in mind, the best thing we could
do to preserve these stories is to pass them on to future generations.
