A Proppian workshop for writers of kids’ and young adult books will be conducted by the Society of Children’s Book Writers & Illustrators (SCBWI) and the Cultural Center of the Philippines on May 26, 2012, Saturday, at the Cultural Center of the Philippines Complex along Roxas Boulevard, Manila.
The resource person is Tanya Tynjälä, a writer, freelance journalist, cultural promoter, translator, and language and intercultural communication teacher in French and Spanish. She will conduct a workshop based on the work of Soviet formalist scholar Vladimir Propp who analyzed the basic plot components of Russian folk tales to identify their simplest irreducible narrative elements.
