This paper aims to bridge folk narrative studies and literature on foreign language learning, by providing an overview of the applications of folk narratives—from fairy tales to contemporary legends—to EFL teaching and learning. It focuses on how the very nature of oral narratives, of which the English language has a particularly varied and rich tradition, can act on the acquisition of English as a foreign language from a linguistic and a cultural point of view.

Abstract
This paper aims to bridge folk narrative studies and literature on foreign language learning, by providing an overview of the applications of folk narratives—from fairy tales to contemporary legends—to EFL teaching and learning. It focuses on how the very nature of oral narratives, of which the English language has a particularly varied and rich tradition, can act on the acquisition of English as a foreign language from a linguistic and a cultural point of view.File in questo prodotto:
