Storytelling tradition

Storytelling tradition refers to the cultural practice of passing down stories, myths, legends, and personal narratives orally or through other mediums like writing or performance. It serves to preserve history, teach moral lessons, and foster community identity. These traditions vary across cultures but share the common goal of sharing experiences, values, and knowledge from generation to generation. They often use storytelling techniques such as symbolism, repetition, and vivid imagery to engage audiences and ensure the stories resonate beyond the moment they are told. This practice helps maintain cultural continuity and enriches collective understanding.
