Mirjana Detelić:
Saint Sisinnius in the Twilight Zone of Oral Literature
Abstract
This paper deals with a translation model of a saint motif from hagiological context to folklore. This is exemplified by St.Sisinnius’ legend and apocryphal prayer for children and parents health, especially against fever. The analysis is done from the poetological point of view, focusing on mutual genre influences along the passage from the prayer to a fairy-tale.
