Structural Analysis of the Aesop's Fables

Objectives

This wiki aims at analyzing Aesop's Fable in order to refine a structural model of narrative for interactive storytelling.

Content

The 20 first Aesop's Fables (V.S. Vernon Jones English translation) have been analyzed.

Each fable is analyzed as a graph of interconnected nodes. The list of node types and relation types in the theoretical model are documented here.

Dramatic cycles are subparts of a graph that represent paradoxes, according to Bill Nichols approach. These cycles correspond to "conflicts". A dramatic cycle is coded as a pair of two paths, the positive path and the negative path.
