Berättelserna

Berättelserna, literally The Stories, is a Swedish-language title that has been used for several distinct works in literature, film and broadcasting. The use of the definite plural form signals that the work presents a collection of narratives rather than a single tale. The phrase is common in Swedish publishing and media, and as a result, Berättelserna functions as a generic title rather than a single, unified work.

In literature, Berättelserna is typically employed for anthologies of short stories or collections of folk tales, fairy tales, or anecdotal narratives. The format can range from contemporary prose to reworked traditional material, and the tone may vary from literary to popular fiction.

In film and television, Berättelserna has been used for anthology formats in which a sequence of self-contained stories is presented within a single program or release. Some adaptations may employ a connecting motif, setting, or framing device, but each installment remains largely independent.

Because the title is broad and widely used, entries with this name are typically disambiguated by year of release, medium, author, or subtitle. In cataloging and criticism, Berättelserna is treated as a topical descriptor rather than a single canonical work.
