Abstract

In this study, I should like to examine the movement between chaos and order, as it is described in the story and its various versions.I'll even examine, if it shatters into the chaos or eventually restores order.I should like to show how zeit geist affects the story and its versions, once it gets a folk formulation through the initial story and its different versions, and also how the stories relate to cultural patterns prevalent in the Middle Ages.In addition, I will try to understand how such a frightening and tragic macabre story develops from the darkness of the Middle Ages into children's literature.
