Abstract

The ‘riddled narrative’ has served as a timeless technique of storytelling, especially in India. The technique was historically used to impart moral instruction to the masses and was often intricately related to minutely interlaced philosophical teaching points that were passed on to the audience effortlessly. This paper examines the scope of integrating riddled narratives into modern educational practices for nurturing critical thinking and moral development.
