Folklore (Culture)

While the author admits this has many aspects of a rant, it offers a clear look at how a Eurocentric vision wipes out the complexity of non-European narratives. There is much more going on in the movie Ran for example than just a retelling of one of Shakespeare’s plays. Sometimes this vision suppresses whole stories or interprets them in such a way to twist the meaning completely around, so understanding the effects of this bias and being aware enough to recognize them is crucial.
