Folktales often use literary devices such as symbolism, foreshadowing, personification, and imagery to convey deeper meanings and engage the reader with vivid storytelling. These devices help create a sense of magic and wonder in the narrative, allowing readers to connect with the characters and themes on a symbolic level.
Folktales originate from the collective experiences, beliefs, and traditions of a community or culture. They are passed down orally through generations and often feature common themes, characters, or settings that reflect the values and beliefs of the people telling the stories.
C.S. Lewis considered folktales to be sources of deep truths and insights into the human experience. He believed that they can convey moral lessons, spiritual truths, and universal themes that connect all people. Lewis saw folktales as a way to explore timeless issues and tap into the collective wisdom of humanity.

The morals of the stories are pretty similar, whether they are Swedish, Italian, African, or have origins elsewhere.
