i don't actually know how to classify this as a Romantic story. I mean, thos story does have the nature setting as the background, but for this to be a complete romantic story it should have more. This feel more like amn straight out allegory or myth rather than be classified as a Romantic story.
The reason why i classify this as a tale or a myth is by the way he wrote it. Throughout the story, the author gave out many intrepretations and describing the situation or the tale of various occasions. It's not like an regular story where it continues on without stopping for some detail of the background. As i mentioned, if it was a contemporary writer writing this, much detail would add in about the whole story rather than some wierd quotations such as, "the story was told through numerous versions, but however this is the one told most eetc etc" The moment this thing came up, i was thinking to myself, hmmmm, this sounds like a tale or a myth for children not to be greedy.
The ending and treament wouldn't be so different, i mean from the rasicism? i don't feel as much and as strong. The part with the indians is understandable, since numerous tales or things have depicted them with involvement in something such as rituals. So that's kind of still in the proper minds of people. Besides that, i don't feel much racisim is implanted in the story afterall.
