Gisselle · Answer 1

The correct answer is cultural archetypes.

According to the psychologist Carl Jung, archetypes refer to universal themes, characters, settings, etc., that are frequently and repeatedly found in various cultures and societies across history and time. Jung claimed that our collective unconscious results in these similarities. This is why fairy tales told to western children also exist in slightly different forms in African and Asian cultures.

I believe the correct answer is archetypes.

The theory of archetypes was really prominent because of Carl Jung. According to him, an archetype is something that appears everywhere, in all cultures all over the world. There are some ideas and values that all cultures share, no matter where they might be located, and fairy tales are some of those customs.
