Abstract

The folk-tale is one of the most fascinating forms of folk-lore that can be studied. When a good story is told in the family circle (in many cases the entire village is one large family) or in a gathering of friends, the question: "Where did you read that?" never arises. Neither do the hearers make a written record of the tale they have just listened to. It is an accepted custom that all "cuentos" are committed to memory.
