Linguistic means of visualization and expressiveness in fairy tales
To make fairy tales interesting to children and have a lively narrative language, the authors use various means of expression. Over the centuries, a large number of them have been developed. A fairy tale is created thanks to the unity of all poetic means: epithets, metaphors, comparisons, personifications, etc. The main characters acquire the traits necessary for the author thanks to epithets: the fox becomes cunning, the piglets become sloppy.
For your information! With the help of personification, the author endows inanimate objects with human characteristics so that children's imagination can identify with the main character and empathize with him.
