  • The Fox in World Literature Reflections on a “Fictional Animal”
    Hans-Jörg Uther Enzyklopädie des Märchens Göttingen, Germany The Fox in World Literature Reflections on a “Fictional Animal” Abstract The article discusses the role of the fox in international folktales, both written and oral. The animal is taken to be the incarnation of cunning, slyness, perfidy, and even wickedness. However, more positive qualities and faculties, such as an ingenious mind, a readiness to care for and help others, quickness, and circumspection are also recognized. This is a sign of the ambivalence considered to be characteristic for all animals. The content and motifs in European or European-influenced fox narratives are most often predicated by descriptions that go back to antiquity. Some Asian fox narratives, too, can be traced far back, but they diverge markedly from the European ones. While the role of the fox in fables and animal tales in particular is subjected to extreme fluctuations in its valence, the same can hardly be said for magic tales. Here, the fox is mostly encountered in the role of a grateful (helpful) animal. Keywords: ambivalence—corn demon—animal demon—fox—fox spirits—grateful animal—helpful animal—animal tales Asian Folklore Studies, Volume 65, 2006: 133–160 he fox (vulpes vulpes), which includes the red fox, the cross fox, and the arctic fox, among others, lives all over Europe, West and East Asia, and in many parts of North America (Zimen 1980, 2; Burrows and Matzen T1972).* Hardly any other mammals living in the wild enjoy as much popularity as the fox—both male and female (vixen) alike—in the traditions since antiqui- ty (see Uther 2003, 2004, and 2006 for numerous textual examples).

AESOP'S FABLES A NEW TRANSLATION BY V. S. VERNON JONES WITH AN INTRODUCTION BY G. K. CHESTERTON AND ILLUSTRATIONS BY ARTHUR RACKHAM 1912 EDITION INTRODUCTION _AEsop embodies an epigram not uncommon in human history; his fame is all the more deserved because he never deserved it. The firm foundations of common sense, the shrewd shots at uncommon sense, that characterise all the Fables, belong not him but to humanity. In the earliest human history whatever is authentic is universal: and whatever is universal is anonymous. In such cases there is always some central man who had first the trouble of collecting them, and afterwards the fame of creating them. He had the fame; and, on the whole, he earned the fame. There must have been something great and human, something of the human future and the human past, in such a man: even if he only used it to rob the past or deceive the future. The story of Arthur may have been really connected with the most fighting Christianity of falling Rome or with the most heathen traditions hidden in the hills of Wales.
