An Analysis of the Vānarinda Jātaka
THE PROMISE OF INTERPRETATION: AN ANALYSIS OF THE VĀNARINDA JĀTAKA by VISHMA KUNU (Under the Direction of Glenn Wallis) ABSTRACT My contention is that the Vānarinda Jātaka (VJ) is a specifically Buddhist narrative, being a strategic reworking of situations and characters common to Indian oral tradition. By way of a fluid, triple-layered construct that is experimental in nature, I support this claim by exploring the interpretive possibilities of the text. Chapter one functions as a philological groundwork, and is a translation of the Pāli text that highlights terminology with distinctive resonances in the Buddhist tradition. The second chapter reveals the ways in which the VJ is marked by generality, drawing out pan-Indian elements through an examination against excerpts from the Pañcatantra, considered nīti literature, and the Sundarakāa in Vālmīki’s Rāmāyaa, a Hindu work, all having pre-literate roots. In the third chapter, I offer a creative explication of the VJ, bringing to light the abundance of Buddhist allusions, and doctrinal references embedded within the narrative.

Jataka Tales: Layers of Meaning from the Universal to the Personal
Jataka Tales: Layers of Meaning from the Universal to the Personal Grade Level or Course Type: English, Social Studies, adaptable for grades 6 through 10 Overview of the Lesson Jataka Tales: Birth Stories of the Buddha are among the world’s oldest collection of stories. Many, about endearing animals who misbehave – and then learn to behave better – are appealing to children throughout the world. In this lesson students compare an Aesop’s fable to a Jataka Tale to see what they share in common. Students then learn about the Buddhist context of the tales, through which they deepen their appreciation of what makes a Jataka Tale unique. Finally, students approach a Jataka Tale through the meaning it held in the life of Noor Inayat Khan (1914-1944), whose classic collection Twenty Jataka Tales is still in print. She was a Muslim who worked as a covert agent for the British in Occupied France. She died at Dachau in 1944. In all three activities, students gain insight into what makes stories important in our lives. Learning Outcomes: • Identify stories by genre as fable, parable, folktale and fairy tale. • Decipher the moral of a story. • Understand Buddhist concepts (Ten Perfections, cycle of death and rebirth) • Learn about the life and appreciate the artistry of Noor Inayat Khan. Materials Needed • This lesson and the handouts included with it. They include: Handout 1. Life of Noor Inayat Khan with photos and scrapbook activity Handout 2. The Monkey and the Dolphin credited to Aesop and genre definitions Handout 3. The Patient Buffalo, a Jataka Tale Handout 4.

Author of Chronicles of Man, Through Russia in War Time WITH 4 PIRATES LONDON KEGAN PAUL. TRENCH, TRUBNER & Co., Ltd. NEW YORK : E. P. BUTTON & Co. A Printed Great Britain by BovvERiNG & Co., St. Andrev.'s Printing Works, George Street, Plymouth. PREFACE RILOFF is such a remarkable figure in Russian literature, and his Fables are so interesting and admirable that I have ventured to render eighty-six of them into English. No prose translation can do this poet-fabulist justice, but a rendering in metrical fonns, corresponding with his own, may give readers some idea of his merits. If it be recalled that the source of most fables is hidden in the mists of antiquity, then Kriloff 's originality can scarcely fail to be a recommendation. He wrote, in all, 201 fables and there seems little doubt that, in four-fifths of them, he was not indebted to anyone.

This is Aesop’s fable about a fast Hare (rabbit) who liked to make fun of a slow Tortoise. Set in Florida, down at the beach, all the animals are Florida wildlife including Gopher Tortoise. Tired of being teased about his slow pace, Tortoise challenges Hare to a race, with all the nearby animals to cheer them on. Once the race begins, Hare is so sure he will win the race, he stops for a snack, and then for a nap. Meanwhile Tortoise keeps going, keeping his eye on the finish line and letting nothing distract him. Just before Tortoise is about to finish the race, Hare wakes up and with a burst of speed tries to beat Tortoise. But he is too late! Tortoise wins the race. The moral of the story is: Slow and steady wins the race.

Year 2: Quarter 2
Catholic SchoolhouseTM Dialectic Level Tutor Guide Year 2: Quarter 2 by Kathy Rabideau Quarter 2 Background Information Language Arts (Literature): Aesop’s Fables— Setting: The fables attributed to Aesop were actually composed over the course of many centuries. Aesop is a semi legendary figure, about whom various stories have been told. All that can be known with any certainty about Aesop is that he was a Phrygian slave who was later freed by his Greek master because of the wit and charm of his stories. All other details about Aesop’s life appear to have been invented after his death. Aesop’s Fables—Plot: As mentioned, Aesop was a slave in ancient Greece. He was a keen observer of both animals and people. Most of the characters in his stories are animals, some of which take on human characteristic and are personified in ways of speech and emotions. However, the majority of his character retain their animalistic qualities; tortoise are slow, hares are quick, tigers eat bird, etc. Aesop uses these qualities and natural tendencies of animals to focus on human traits and wisdom. Each fable has an accompanying moral to be learned from the tale. Religion: Aesop’s Fables—Summary: Each week, you will read and discuss multiple fables using Aesop’s Fables. (Use: https://books.google.com/ books?id=UO0pAQAAMAAJ ) 1. Read the fables one by one. (Do not read the moral listed in the fable until after they have thought of a moral in their own words.) 2. Have the students put the moral in their own words (no more than one sentence in length—see example ideas in parentheses in your weekly plans.
