Story Telling

Story Telling is the way of tell stories that happened in the past, the stories can be fantasy or real, but almost always are about fantasy.
There are different types of storytelling, for example: listening to someone tells a story like Ana Victoria Garro, reading a book as: Peter Pan written by James Matthew Barrie, watching a movie such as: the same Peter Pan but directed by P. J. Hogan, or watching a play like Romeo and Juliet.
Also, there are different kinds of stories depending of the writer, for example: horror story like “El cadejos”, fantasy stories like Peter Pan and more.
Storyteller is a person who relates the story, may be one or more people who tell the story. These people have different techniques to can transmit the story a good way; they change their voice with the purpose to change the feeling of the story, they talk faster and louder to make the story more exciting, they use different voices for different character to show the audience who is talking, they talk slowly and softly to sound scary and they use dialogue to bring the characters to life. Also, the use of the oral expression as the movement of hands is very important.
I think that is important to preserve this tradition because the young people can know about the life of our grandparents; for me is very wonderful listen a grandparent tell about a classic story of our country, for example: “La llorona loca”, “La carreta sin bueyes”, “La mona” and other.
