type of folktales
I am interested in folktale types and wonder about the criterion used for grouping the folktales into cumulative tales, talking beast tales,numskull tales,wonder tales,pourquoi tales .

Re: type of folktales
Antti Aarne and Stith Thompson "Types of the Folktale" (1961) is the book which gives the basic categories usually used.
Also Stith Thompson "The Folktale" (1977).
