Journal Title: International Journal of Social Science And Human Research - Year 2023, Vol 6, Issue 05
Abstract
This research examines the emotional paradigm in Kunzang Chode’s Folktales of Bhutan to bring about self- realization of the impacts of positive and negative emotions. The poetic and imaginative essence of folktales reflects the need for a plural consciousness as it is only through a plural consciousness that their perspectives, belief systems and experiential grids can be comprehended. Folktales and folklore have been transmitted orally for generations to date. These folktales and folklore are important media to transmit and communicate social, cultural, ethical, and spiritual values across the globe. In Bhutan, these tales have been a source of entertainment. Although the tradition of the narration is slowly diminishing in modern times, the trend is still alive, particularly in the rural regions of the country. Bhutanese folktales revolve mostly around Buddhist philosophy on values and virtues of righteousness. Choden’s Folktales of Bhutan portrays the various forms of emotion that every individual experience in their day to day lives. The research adopts the psychoanalysis theories to explore all these aspects of emotions through a mixed-mode method.
