GENRE TRANSFORMATION OF THE FAIRY TALE IN THE MODERN AMERICAN NOVEL
Keywords:
genre transformation, fairy tale, modern American novel.Abstract
This article analyzes the genre transformation of the fairy tale in the modern American novel. Reference to the model of the fairy tale genre is very relevant for the American novel at the turn of the century. This is primarily due to the existence of moral trust, because in the modern situation semantic boundaries become an important factor of the authors’ constant interest in this genre. The appeal of modern American writers to the fairy tale genre is also determined by the tradition of using it in American literature to symbolically generalize and understand the problems of modern reality.
