关于改写民间故事的讨论--刘守华和黄俏燕的三次通信

Discussions on the Adaptation of Folk Stories

一位乡村语文教师,给学生讲民间故事,又致力改写民间故事,立志推出一部《格林童话》式的故事书,她的梦想得到一位年届8旬的著名学人的热诚相助,几番赠书借书,数次书信研讨,构成感人佳话。改写民间故事,既有学理探究,更涉及中国民间故事艺术生命的延续和民间文化基因的有效传承。

A rural teacher of Chinese told folk stories to her students and dedicated herself to adapting folk stories, determined to write a story book in the genre of Grimm Fairy Tales. Her dream was supported by a scholar of over 80 years old, who donated and lent books and wrote letters of encouragement. It is argued that the adaptation of folk stories is conducive to the continuation of art life of Chinese folk stories and the inheritance of folk culture gene.
