I love these storytelling scenes: SJ Guy’s “The Story of Golden Locks” c. 1870, & the original frontispieces for the British editions of the Grimms’ fairy tales, c. 1820s, & illustrated by the great George Cruikshank. I love the coziness. ☺️📚💫

is often used to make teaching approachable & memorable, "[making] use of humble incidents to teach great truths" (Apollonius of Tyana on Aesop). Jesus's parables use this principle. Fables tend to have anthropomorphised animal characters.

To celebrate the folklore of storytelling this who else recalls Jim Henson's The Storyteller as an iconic part of their childhood? The cadence, the rhythm of the stories was mesmerising. Love John Hurt!
