ABSTRACT

Folk literature and written literature share a close-knit relationship, mutually enriching each other. This research not only deepens our understanding of community beliefs, doctrines, and worldviews but also explores and evaluates the cultural diversity and essence within the spiritual heritage of generations. Employing comparative analysis, historical research, and cultural literary analysis, this paper focuses on analyzing common factors, mutual influences, and the relationship between folk literature and written literature. This interaction fosters diversity and richness within national culture and folk literature. Studying this relationship not only generates new creative resources but also opens doors to understanding the history, culture, and mindset of a community. Consequently, it promotes understanding and respect for culture and diversity, contributing to the development and preservation of our cultural heritage.

KEYWORDS:

folk literature, written literature, cultural preservation, symbiotic relationship, national culture.
