俄罗斯民间故事在主题类型上主要包括动物故事、神奇故事和生活故事三大类别,在叙事结构上主要呈现为线性式直线结构、重叠式单线结构和回环式闭合结构三种类型。在不同的故事类别和叙事结构中,叙事者以全知型第三人称或限制性第一人称视角出现,以旁观者或参与者身份出场,组织情节讲述故事,在叙事视角、情节功能、文体风格等方面呈现出相对结构化和模式化的特征。俄罗斯民间故事叙事结构的定型化与类型化,凸现出集体民众对艺术世界和现实世界之间互动关系的情态取向,奠定了俄罗斯近现代叙事艺术的物质基础和理论渊源。
As a representative of folk art narrative, Russian folk tales mainly consist of three categories in terms of topic type, namely animal tales, magic tales and life tales, whose narrative structure can be summarized in three stereo- types, namely linear structure, overlapping single-line structure and closed loop structure. In different story categories and narrative structures, the narrator tells stories and constructs plots as a bystander or a participant from the perspective of ommscient third person or limited first person, which shows the characteristics of relative structuralization and patternization in terms of narrative perspective, plot function and style etc. The stereotype and typification of narrative structure in Russian folk tales reveal the mass attitude and expectation to the interaction between the art world and the reality, laying a material and theoretical foundation for the modern and contemporary Russian narrative art.
