Just came across your channel in my recommended. While watching this video, I went through your channel, wondering if you had anything about the Master and Margarita. You did not disappoint, love that it was your first video. Checking that out next! For now, enjoying this video while I sew ✨
Honestly if I only subscribed to one TH-cam channel, it would choose your's Inna. Youre such a pleasure to listen to. Thank you for all the efforts you go to to make them. Yes, a Soviet fairytale video would be fascinating ♥️
I second to the support of the idea of a video about Soviet fairy tales! I had read many and these "fairy tale novels" (a full genre in Soviet literature) are fascinating!
@39:19 Could you tell me what source you were reading, or the name of this practice? I’d never heard about it until this! Спасибо вам огромно за создания этого видео, мне было интересно вернуться к таким сказкам ❤
It’s all from Historical Roots of the wonder tale by Vladimir Propp, for this specific custom he also cites Schurtz H. “Altersklassen und Männerbünde” and Webster H. “Primitive secret societies” as sources.
I grew up with a picture book about Baba Yaga. This girl lived with her step mother and step sister. They made her sleep in the barn on straw while they slept in feather beds. The girl worked and worked, and one day, she grew a horn in the middle of her forehead. Her evil step mom was like “get out of here, demon!” So the girl walked and walked. She walked while she was sleeping, she walked while she was awake, and one night, she found a cabin in chicken legs. She knocked on the door, and an old lady answered. The girl said she was very hungry, and needed a place to sleep. The old woman said cool story, bruh. You know how to sweep? And the girl says of course, let me sweep this place up. The old woman fed her, and she did chores. It went on like that for a while, and then Baba Yaga said “it’s time to go home”, took the horn off of her head, and stuck it right to the wall. The girl went home, and her dad, who they all thought died, had returned from a long way away, with gold and gems and beautiful dresses for his beloved daughter. And he kicked those other ladies out, he said how dare you treat my precious daughter so! And the step mom was like “where’s your horn, horn face?” And the girl said “I dunno, witch took it? And I think she made dad come home?” So the step mom told the step sister, go find the witch! She’ll make us rich, like ol’ hornface. The step sister found Baba Yaga’s cottage and knocked on the door. She said “yeah, I’m hungry or SUHmthing, can you, like, help or whatever?” And Baba Yaga said “uh huhhhh… you know how to sweep? Maybe milk a cow?” And the step sister was like “boo, no. Gross. I don’t like to work, I am very lazy and bad.” So Baba Yaga said yeah… I know who you are. And she took the horn off the wall, stuck it to the stepsisters forehead, and said good luck finding a husband now, hornface. And you know, I think that might have been one of those Soviet retellings you were talking about.
What a lovely video for Christmas! I am happy because I recently read a book with a few Russian fairy tales and was surprised that many of the tales mentioned in the video are ones I have read. It is a topic I wish more people appreciated and talked about, it’s so fun! o(^▽^)o🪆
Pretty sure the soviet stories would be just soviet childrens literature as, if i get that right, they basically were sophisticated propaganda projects. its not to say it isnt good, just a clear intent. Childrens media would fit most
I think it can be both tbh, propaganda and good children’s stories, some of it was more obvious in its messaging, some less so. And especially now looking back at it to see what values they were promoting in children is quite interesting from research standpoint. As a child I obviously didn’t notice it, now I see it more clearly 😉 But as I say that, the book I mentioned in the video, “Be a man, Barankin” was very obvious in its message and I remember skipping over those bits to get to the actual fun part, the magical, so the kids aren’t always stupid, so you still need to tell a fun story to keep them engaged and sneak in your propaganda 😄 Besides, no children’s media is truly unbiased, I guess.
I had read many Soviet novels for children and while some of them had some Soviet propaganda, many were apolitical, just teaching good values to children (how to be a good friend, how to help elders etc.)
I took a uni course on Russian fairy tales. We learned about most of these tales. I enjoyed the class, and your video brought back good memories.
I'm so happy I came across your channel, this is the first video I'm watching of yours and I'm already hooked!
Stumbled across this video, and now I’m hooked!
