Abstract

The acculturation in the multicultural society has been limited to the immigrants until now. However the acculturation of the immigrants should be harmonized with the understanding of the permanent residents. The folktale Bride without Eating was selected as a text of culture education for the permanent residents. Moreover the multicultural society is an unfamiliar circumstance not only to the immigrants but also to the permanent residents. In this study. the permanent residents are selected as a target of cultural education. In Bride without Eating, it appeared one man who was a light eater represented a permanent resident whilst two brides who were gourmand represented the immigrants. Under the multicultural approach, this story showed cultural conflict, prejudice, violence and subordination types between the immigrants and the permanent residents. The fairy tale book which is a re-creative writing is a good example of the cultural education for the permanent residents. After the man witnesses the bride eating a meal with a mouth in her head, he runs away in a hurry from his home. This fairy tale told how the maladjustment of the immigrants can devastate the life of the permanent residents. Hence the cultural education for the permanent residents should be linked to the acculturation of the immigrants. Folktales and re-creative fairy tales based on folktale are one of the solutions to the cultural education in a mulicultural society.
