Abstract

This article dwells upon the study of the ethics and style of a fairy tale based on the material of Malay-Indonesian folklore. The purpose of our study is to analyze the poetic system of the Indonesian magic tale as a functionally organized unity of its components. In this article we considered the medial formulas of the fairy tale, which we subdivided into "external" and "internal", that is, formulas designed to arouse listeners' interest, and transitional (internal) formulas. These stable poetic structures (formulas) play a significant role in the compositional structure of a fairy tale, as well as in the characterization of fairy tale characters. The most important functions (actions) of the characters are marked with formulas. The scientific novelty of our study is that the work attempted to interpret the methodical methods of analysis developed by the outstanding folklorist V.Ya. Propp on the material of Russian folk tales, in the context of   Indonesian magic tales .

In Uzbekistan, a special study of the elements of the poetics of the Indonesian fairy tale has not been carried out yet, as well as there is no methodology for conducting analysis.
