Abstract:

A tale, being a special genre of epic character, serves as one of the basic sources of the conceptual opposition of “good” and “evil”, where it is clearly established. The article attempts to define the connection of the concept “childhood” with the conceptual sphere of “good” and “evil”, and the concept of “God” through the analysis of the frame “tale”.
