within human history. Typically, a

historicized narrative performed in a
conversational mode. Some define
legend as folktale. The example of
legend in narrative text are:
Sangkuriang
Malin Kundang
The legend of Tangkuban Perahu
The story of Toba lake
Fabel
A fabel is a short allegorical
narrative making a moral point,
traditionally by means of animal
characters who speak and act like
human beings. The example of fable
in narrative text are:
Mousedeer and crocodile.
The Ants and the Grasshopper
The smartest parrot
The story of monkey and crocodile

Fairy Tale
Fairy tale is an English language term for a
type of short narrative corresponding to
the French phrase "conte de fée". A fairy
tale typically features such folkloric
characters as fairies, goblins, elves, trolls,
dwarves, giants or gnomes, and usually
magic or enchantments. The example of
fairy tale in narrative text are:
Cinderella
Snow white
Pinocchio
Beauty and the beast
The story of Rapunzel

Science fiction is that class of prose
narrative treating of a situation that
could not arise in the world we
know. Some examples of science
