Narrative tradition refers to the way storytelling is passed from generation to generation.Tradition is not an unchangeable or pure object.The reason that people cannot approach tradition rationally lies in its maternity and divinity.Tradition is not passed down only by narration because at times the narrative related to tradition creates tradition or serves as a substitute for tradition.Nowadays,people learn tradition more through narratives related to tradition.There are many forms of expression in narratives and only by grasping the main line of “storytelling” can we penetrate the existing barriers of the disciplines and restore the genealogy of the narrative tradition.The latest anthropological studies suggest that the main reason for human success is storytelling,which helps to convey the significance of narrative traditional research.
Narrative tradition refers to the way storytelling is passed from generation to generation. Tradition is not an unchangeable or pure object. The reason that people cannot approach tradition rationally lies in its maternity and divinity. Tradition is not passed down only by narration because at times the narrative related to tradition creates tradition or serves as a substitute for tradition. Nowadays, people learn tradition more through narratives related to tradition. There are many forms of expression in narratives and only by grasping the main line of "storytelling" can we penetrate the existing barriers of the disciplines and restore the genealogy of the narrative tradition. The latest anthropological studies suggest that the main reason for human success is storytelling, which helps to convey the significance of narrative traditional research.
