There is a theoretical and empirical part in this diploma thesis. The theoretical part presents Kristina Brenk, the editor of both collections in comparison. I will describe a representative of literary theory, Max Lüthi. He described the five features of a fairy tale in his monograph. This is followed by a presentation of Maria Nikolaeva and the verbal-visual relationship in the picture book. I am interested in how much and where the fairy tale is mentioned in the Kindergarten Curriculum and in the Curriculum Handbook.
The empirical part presents a collection of folk tales by Kristina Brenk. I will compare six fairy tales according to the characteristics of Max Lüthi and analyze the verbal-visual relationship. This will help me find similarities and differences between the fairy tales. I am also interested in what is expressed verbally and what visually.
The purpose of the diploma thesis is to find out how the fairy tales from both collections are similar and where they differ. Another aim is to determine the verbal-visual relationship in the fairy tales.
