المرأة في الحكاية الشعبية الفلسطينية

الملخص EN

This paper examines the wemen are portrayed in the Palestinian folktales.

Of special interest are the social spir-itual, psychological and sexual portrayal of women in the roles they assume: mother, sister, wife, daughter, daughter-in-law and fellow wife.

It also investigates both the negative and positive mythical depictions of women in Palestinian folk tales.

Later, the paper draws a comparison between this portrayal and the way women are featured in modern social and psy-chological science.

Inspired by the relevant approaches, particularly the mythical approach, the paper used the descriptive analytical approach.
