Vasilisa Research (1)

I'd already read this story before as someone on a dolls group I'm a member of had recommended it for my dissertation research, but I didn't get much further than reading it which is a shame because it's a wonderful story. It's got everything: magic, a forest, a witch, a magical doll, creepy skulls and a weird house with chicken legs... This is perfect for the ADQ brief 'Haunted Fairytales'! Here I've done a lot more in-depth research into the culture, context and representations of the story.
