| Abstract: | Vladimir	Propp	identified	magic	as	a	core	function	
of	 fairy	 tales.	 This	 article	 applies	 Propp’s	 fourteenth	function	to	Bavarian	fairy	tales	from	oral	
tradition,	 collected	 by	 Franz	 Schönwerth.	 By	incorporating	 the	 international	 classification	 system	 of	 Antti	 Aarne,	 Stith	 Thompson,	 and	 HansJörg	Uther,	 this	 paper	extends	Propp’s	 approach	
beyond	just	tales	of	magic:	South	German	animal	
tales,	religious	tales,	tales	of	the	stupid	ogre,	anecdotes	 and	 jokes,	 and	 formula	 tales	 all	 feature	
magical	agents. Vladimir Propp identificò la magia come una funzione centrale delle fiabe. L’articolo si propone di applicarla alle fiabe bavaresi di tradizione orale, raccolte da Franz Schönwerth ed estende l’approccio di Propp ad altri generi di fiabe, incorporando il sistema di classificazione internazionale di Aarne, Thompson e Uther: le fiabe di animali della Germania meridionale, le fiabe religiose, le fiabe dell’orco stupido, gli aneddoti, le barzellette e le fiabe a formula presentano tutti agenti magici. |
