# Doing your survey,
but isn't a self-selecting sample a little dodgy at MSci level?

# Hmmmm, ok then.
So are you focussing on fairy tales and cultural heritage, or not? And have you read Bruno Bettelheim's "The Uses of Enchantment?"

# No I haven't, I will have a look :)
What I'm trying to focus on is the loss of oral tradition, and the associated stories. Moving from there onto how you stop it and why tools such as the Internet are a double-edged sword.

Ive also done two animations (both 90% complete) which are classic stories but with text in mutliple languages (Four for a Grimm one).

Edit - That book looks handy for some sections, I'll get me one :)

# Sounds really interesting.
And you should definitely read the Bettelheim! Wonderful book, all about the meanings, function, and importance of fairy tales.
