Special Event "Storytelling: Heterodoxic Narratives"
National and Kapodistrian University of Athens
Description
The essence of fairy tales is the realm of enchantment, that special time-altered place reserved for transformative experiences and experiments. The heroines and the heroes of fairy tales are carriers of heterodoxic attitudes as they embark on journeys with unknown outcomes in order to bring forth the necessary transformation wherein the new emerges and ultimately reconfigures lived experience. The asynchronous character of enchantment opens a place for renewing the present by touching the past. These spoken narratives, expressed through a wealth of different symbols, create the possibility of transcendence through imagery intertwined with the miraculous, nevertheless tied to the most intimate aspects of existence and human nature, exploring thus the various heterodoxic realizations of subjectivity.
During the storytelling performance you will hear folktales from Greece, Ireland, Turkey, Great Britain and America.
