Women Who Run with the Wolves
Clarissa Pinkola Estés · 99 weeksA received core is separated from its development
Before Three Gold Hairs, Estés identifies Tante Kata as the person from whom she received the tale’s core and says she developed its substance. The discussion then moves to the motif and the use she makes of it in the chapter on creative life.
Calling the received material a core gives the attribution a scope. The adjacent admission of development helps readers distinguish a line of transmission from a claim that this telling is an unchanged source document.
The source in context.
La Llorona and a polluted river open a discussion of creative life. Within the same source chapter, The Little Match Girl and Three Gold Hairs address fantasy, depleted attention and renewal; they are not a separately numbered chapter in this extraction.

Its limit
This is original paraphrase of the Bulgarian passage. The wording supports a disclosed expansion, but neither specifies all alterations nor independently verifies the tale’s lineage or the archetypal meaning assigned to its motif.
