1.: The tale and a little of its history over timeIn its true sense, the fairy tale means to be a short or popular story that embodies what is called the ethics of its time and every era in which it's represented and that can express itself in the end as authority or principle. By dint of its relativity compared to the connotation of the myth, but still quite differentiated conceptually, the fairy tale is straightaway a concept, a fiction, an imaginary story that sometimes uses in a metaphorical sense an animal as its central character or introduce stereotyped characters as well, such as ''The rascal''. It's very often a subversive allegory that we can see happening against feudalism or the ruling class, or rather a conflict between the human kingdom and the invisible one. It personalizes and personifies different elements beyond the common logic of space and time and extends also without any distinction from the organic world to the inorganic one, from humans and animals passing through trees, flowers, stones, currents and winds. The fairy tale uses symbols expressed poetically, lyrically but allegorically at the same time giving a meaning to its metaphors. ≈≈2.: The Greek IdentityIn Greece, the interest of the fairy tale constitutes a part of the general interest for the products of the Demotic Literature which contribute mainly to the formation of the national identity. In January of 1880, Nikolaos Politis published an article in three series in the newspaper ''Estia'', entitled ''Demotic Tales'' under the indication of ''In Munich 1879''. The article was written on the publication of the two fairy tales' collections by foreign scholars. One of them was Johan Georg von Hahn, consular spokesman of Austria to Ioannina city and then to the Greek island of Syros, who published in 1864, in Leipzig, a collection of tales in German, entitled ''Neo-Hellenic Tales''. The other, the Danish Hellenist Jean Pio published in 1879, in Copenhagen, a similar collection, inspired by the notes of Hahn. The most fertile period in terms of recording and rescuing the popular fairy tale in Greece is considered being the period of the last thirty years of the nineteenth century as well as the first decades of the twentieth century. Of course, a few years ago quite long before it had already shown up a demonstration in some books and magazines of a publication of folk material through some punctual and exclusive way, like Pandora and Ilissos who had presented precisely an intense editorial activity. In fact, the fairy tale did not immediately attract the attention of scientists, who had clearly manifested themselves before for other forms of popular life. This, of course, is because ''by its nature, because of its universality, it's not suitable for the promotion of Greek Identity's crucial matters and the historical continuity's issue, depending on the circumstances''. During all this time, it's considered as primordially important the encouragement held by Nikolaos Politis with his students to take a deep interest in the folk tale.3.: The conceptual elements of the fairy taleThe fairy tale means to be a fantastic oral narrative, usually composed of numerous and successive episodes, called as motives (the motive is the least narrative proposition that supports storytelling). It differs from the myth because it's an allegorical tale that aims at moral teaching. It also differs from tradition since that latest one refers to an event, person or place and people believe it such as a real fact. The fairy tale moves deeply and entertains all peoples of the earth since ancient times. Its cases as well as its circumstances aren't related to places and real time and its faces and personalities are fantastic. In fairy tales, we come across a host of incredible and fabulous events.
