Abstract

ABSTRACT Ever since the dawn of civilisation, ever since man first realised the imperative need to know himself and, through that self-knowledge, to win friends and influence people so as to secure his own happiness and well-being no less than those of his fellowmen, stories have unfailingly offered him significant and dynamic aid. The Panchatantra and the Aesop’s Fables are two such wonderful collections which were written or told according to the oral tradition with a bias for moral mores. Narratology refers to both the theory and the study of narrative and narrative structure and the ways that these affect the readers’ perception. The narratological framework of these stories is such that it makes the reading of these stories interesting and the meaning is also brought to the fore.
