Description
The Amazing Russian Vixen presents a collection of folk-tales centering on a mischievous woman-fox, very smart and sly, always looking for trouble, even without any benefits.
Drawing upon an understanding of Russian history and culture, the volume emerges in part out of a conceivable connection between folklore and a sense of national identity.
These famous and humorous stories are known by every child in Russia. The stories are about the vixen's schemes and what happens to her and others whom she meets as she attempts to carry out her plans. The stories reveal a great deal about the vixen's amazing creativity and endurance. If folklore reflects the character of the nation, maybe these stories disclose much about the Russian character. Who knows? We hope you will find the stories interesting and enjoyable.
