Fairy tales and listening
“Together, storytellers and listeners have collaborated through intuition as well as con- scious conception to form worlds filled with naive morality.”
We have talked a lot about listeners in this class, but still, I had never thought about the listener being a part of the story. When I read this it totally made sense to me though. I know I always enjoy the stories and fairy tales that I could either deeply connect to or was free to make my own world with. We can evaluate who effective a fairy tale is at the space it leaves for the listener to use their imagination.
