This volume is one of six volumes related to this topic:

Vol. 1: : South: Greece and Rome Vol. 4: Native American & Indigenous People Vol. 2: Europe: North: Britain, Norse, Ireland, etc. Vol. 5: The United States Vol. 3: The Middle East, Africa, Asia, Slavic, Plants, Vol. 6: Children’s and Animals

So… what is this PDF? It’s a huge of tables of contents (TOCs). And each table of contents functions as a list of stories, usually placed into helpful categories. Each table of contents functions as both a list and an outline.

What’s it for? What’s its purpose? Well, it’s primarily for scholars who want to skim and scan and get an overview of the important stories and the categories of stories that have been passed down through history. Anyone who spends time skimming and scanning these six volumes will walk away with a solid framework for understanding folklore stories. Here are eight more types of scholars who will just love these lists.

The Eight Types of Scholars Who Will Love These Lists

1. Scholars who want to lightly and occasionally skim and scan and create a mental framework of folklore story.

2. Scholars who want to create a mental framework before they begin reading the important stories that have been handed down through time. These scholars want to see the whole before they start selecting the parts that they want to spend time on.

3. Scholars who want to understand the genres better.

4. Scholars who are reading a book and they want to place it in a larger perspective.

5. Scholars who are reading a book and they want to see just what kind of simplification it is. • Ex. There are not just 12 ’s Fables. • Ex. I keep hearing about the same seven fairy tales. Are there more?

6. Scholars who want to use these lists with other resources (e.g., Cliff’s Notes, study sheets, memorization strategies, timelines, anthologies, etc.) to create a serious foundation of folklore story.

7. Scholars who want a list of folklore books that they can download for free over at Project Gutenberg, Archive, or Google books.

8. Scholars who want to understand world .

Many people will have a special area of interest. e.g., classical mythology, American folklore, folktales, fairy tales, etc. You will find that no two TOCs are exactly the same. If you compare and contrast them, you will better understand your specific topic of interest.

One great thing about TOCs is that someone took the time to select and organize what he or she felt was most important. While many approach the topic in similar ways, many others approach the topic in ways. The truth of the topic lies in the differences between the TOCs.

What’s a folktale? What’s a ? What’s a ? What’s a ? As you skim and scan through these titles and categories, you will come to understand much about all of these types of stories just by analyzing the categories and the titles.

Many of the stories in these lists are folklore, which means that people told the stories before someone wrote them down. However, some have come down through literature, and with modern folklore (e.g., American folklore), the written word may have played an even larger role.

Most of these stories are important and relevant The purpose of the stories is often twofold: because they relate to one or more of these topics: 1. History 1. Entertain 2. 2. Teach 3.

Creating an Amazing Mental Framework of Literature and Story

One of the goals of these lists is to help people create an amazing mental framework of story and literature. I believe that anyone who does create an amazing mental framework of literature and story will be more interested in literature and story. These people will also appear to be well-read and highly knowledgeable. One does not need to read “all the books” to create an amazing mental framework of literature and story.

Previously, we had one type of list to help us create this amazing mental framework:

Type 1: Recommended-reading lists, book award lists, best-of-genre lists, etc.

Now we have a second type of list:

Type 2: The Giant List of Folklore Stories

3 Pattern Based Writing: Quick & Easy Essay – Guaranteed Fast and Effective! © 2018 The Giant List of Stories - Vol. 3 Pattern Based Writing: Quick & Easy Essay Over the years, I’ve collected many recommended-reading lists, book-award lists, and best-of-genre lists. Occasionally, I find a reason to browse through my lists, and sometimes I search for even more lists. These lists provide a framework for understanding the world of literature.

But recently, I was giving students some definitions and characteristics for a variety of different types of folklore stories, and they seemed like dangerous oversimplifications. When I arrived home, I began to compare the definitions with a bunch of tables of contents. Although the definitions and characteristics were nice guidelines, they were an oversimplification.

Because most of these types of stories have a public domain version (primarily before 1923) over on Project Gutenberg, Archive, or Google books, I began collecting an assortment of table of contents. After a while, I liked what I saw! I saw a large framework for understanding many important and commonly referenced stories!

The Important Stories: The Commonly Referenced Stories

Many people have strong ideas about what the important stories are. With the goal of creating a mental framework of literature and story, we could say that the important stories are the commonly referenced stories. When we have a mental framework of literature and story, not only are we more likely to devote more time to reading the important stories, but we often come to understand the importance and significance of many stories without actually reading them.

An equally important point is this: When we have a mental framework of story and literature, we grasp the references that so many highly intelligent people make. Scientists, tech titans, politicians, artists, and the popular media all routinely reference important stories. Naturally, we must understand the stories to truly grasp the references—and that takes time. However, with a well- rounded mental framework of story, we are far more likely to grasp the gist of the references and the significance of the references without needing to devote our lives to understanding every single famous story. Without a mental framework of story, we frequently don’t grasp that an important story has been referenced. So we miss the reference, along with the fact that something has been referenced.

Underestimating the Importance of Story

The Common Core devoted an entire page to “The Special Place of Argument in the Standards.” I respect that choice. However, Plato (c. 428 BC – c. 348 BC) banned storytellers from his Republic for a reason.

4 Pattern Based Writing: Quick & Easy Essay – Guaranteed Fast and Effective! © 2018 The Giant List of Stories - Vol. 3 Pattern Based Writing: Quick & Easy Essay The of life is this: Often, one person puts forth a logically effective argument, but the argument is ignored because the next speaker is a skilled persuader who puts forth a logically effective argument using story. As with Cicero and Demosthenes, the first speaker speaks and the comments, “How well he spoke”; but with the second speaker, the audience cries, “Let us march!”

Right from the beginning, we should probably do a better job of teaching students that STORY is a communication tool and not just a form of entertainment.

Certainly, students must be able to read and comprehend stories, and it’s sure nice if they can write them reasonably well. But from a personal and societal perspective, that’s the tip of the iceberg as relates to the importance of story in human communication and human experience. To a large degree, societies function in story form. We make sense of the world in story form, and we view ourselves in story form. Furthermore, communication is often more effective if the communicator uses story as a component of the communication. This holds true for arguments, news stories, history, sales presentations, reprimands, and more.

Skim and Scan

You have probably heard of (1904-1987) and the Hero’s Journey. Well, he began his own journey into story by spending five years reading and studying the folklore stories that have been passed down through time.

You may not have five years to devote to story, but if you spend a couple of hours over the next few months skimming and scanning all six “Giant List of Folklore Stories,” you will have a much improved mental framework of story.

Pattern Based Writing: Quick & Easy Essay

This is not a part of the Pattern Based Writing: Quick & Easy Essay curriculum. While these lists are language arts related and even writing related, they don’t relate directly to the program. For this reason, many scholars who love these lists will have little use for the curriculum.

Do you teach beginning writers? Do you teach reluctant writers? Do you need to get writing results fast that create a foundation and a framework for teaching writing and that leave your students , “I get it! I finally get it! I can’t even read what I was writing before!”?

If so, check out the curriculum! I guarantee it will help you create writing success fast!
