Through the collection and interpretation of folk tales, the book sheds light on how these narratives have shaped social norms, values, and the collective memory of a community. It also examines the impact of contemporary changes on the preservation and transmission of oral tradition, emphasizing the importance of the heritage that is passed down from generation to generation.
