В настоящее время его образ встречается как в фольклорных, так и авторских сюжетах. К задачам исследования относится выявление значимых черт персонажа и сюжетных особенностей сказок с его участием. Аскеладден – «низкий» сказочный герой. Он покрыт пеплом, плохо одет и зачастую проводит время у очага, причем связь с золой, углем и печью заложена в его имени. Аскеладден презираем окружающими, кажется ленивым, недалеким, мечтательным. Обычно он младший ребенок в бедной семье и вовлечен в конфликты с братьями. Ему не чужды милосердие и сострадание, однако он может также выступать в роли обманщика и хитреца. Неожиданно не подававший надежд герой совершает подвиги либо получает поддержку чудесных сил. Один из самых распространенных подвигов персонажа – это убийство тролля. Отмечается также двойственность этого образа. Аскеладден обычно оказывается типичным героем волшебной сказки, подвергается трансформации и воцаряется. Но встречаются сюжеты, в которых основной становится тема интеллектуального поединка, ловкого одурачивания. В таких случаях герой приобретает сходство с персонажами бытовых сказок и иногда черты трикстера. В статье рассматриваются также реинтерпретации образа Аскеладдена в современной массовой культуре. Широкое распространение типа бесперспективного героя, архетипический сюжет, провокационность образа и черты трикстера делают фигуру Аскеладдена продуктивной для творческого переосмысления.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><p>Askeladden is one of the most popular protagonists of Norwegian fairy tales. Currently, his image is found both in folklore and in literary works. The purpose of the research is to identify significant character traits and plot features of fairy tales in which he is depicted. Askeladden is an unpromising hero. He is covered in ashes, poorly dressed and often spends time by the hearth. Furthermore, the connection with ash, coal and stove is embedded in his nickname. Askeladden is despised by other characters, seems lazy, narrow-minded, dreamy. He is usually the youngest child in a poor family, who becomes involved in conflicts with his brothers. He is characterized by mercy and compassion, but he can similarly act as a deceiver and a cunning man. Unexpectedly, this contemptible character performs feats or receives the support of miraculous powers. One of the most common achievements is killing a troll. The duality of the image is also noted. Askeladden usually turns out to be a typical hero of a fairy tale, undergoes a transformation and becomes a king. However, there are plots in which the main theme is an intellectual duel, clever deception. In such cases, the hero resembles characters of household folktales and sometimes has features of a trickster. In addition, the article examines the reception of the image of Askeladden in modern popular culture. The widespread use of the unpromising hero type, the archetypal plot, the provocative image and the trickster features make Askeladden’s figure productive for creative reinterpretation.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>норвежский фольклор</kwd><kwd>Аскеладден</kwd><kwd>волшебные сказки</kwd><kwd>рецепция</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>Norwegian folklore</kwd><kwd>Askeladden</kwd><kwd>folktales</kwd><kwd>reception</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Мелетинский 2005 – Мелетинский Е.М.
