Amazigh folk tale between oral and written

Abstract

Popular literature is the mirror that reflects the true picture of the life of societies. It is known as "the anonymous, literal, literal, and literal literature of the lower classes of the people, inherited through generations." It is rich in symbols that reveal the experiences of the groups, their identity, The folk literature is divided into several forms of expression: proverbs, puzzles, music, songs, jokes, poetry, legends, dance, plastic arts and folk tales, which are the focus of our study. Algerian society, like the rest of the societies, is characterized by cultural, linguistic and ethnographic diversity, and hence its diverse folklore, which varies from one region to another. Among these are the "tribal region" where Amazigh folk culture is spread, which is linked to the creative imagination of the inhabitants of the region. The Amazigh folktale has learned many attempts by scholars and writers to collect and document them in order to protect them from extinction, because they are important in preserving the intangible Amazigh heritage.
