    ANOTHER EDUCATIONAL STORY SERBIAN TEAM  RECOMMENDS:

     

    Bulgarian Folk Tale

     

     

     

    Italian folk tale

     

    Giufà is a character of Italian folklore. His antics have been retold and memorized through centuries of oral tradition. Although the anecdotes from his life mainly revolve around the southern Italian and Sicilian lifestyle, his character traits are visible in the folk characters of many Mediterranean cultures. In fact, scholars suggest that the character Giufà developed from stories of Nasrudin, a Turkish folk character. Although Giufà is most often recognized as the "village fool", his actions and words usually serve to provide a moral message. It is his peers' reactions, rather than Giufà's outrageous behavior, that are judged at the end of each story. Here is one of his stories translated into English and illustrated by my students.
