Like any fairy tale, "The Story of Harap-Alb" illustrates a different world than the real one, the characters being emperors and thieves, Holy Sunday, enchanted animals and geese, heroes with fabulous features, along with realistic characters brought by Ion Creanga from his native Humuleşti, which gives this creation unmistakable originality. The fairy tale cultivates high moral principles such as truth, justice, honesty, friendship, patience, hospitality, generosity, courage, bravery through positive characters and condemns injustice, wickedness, lies embodied by dragons, dragons or Spaniards.
The characters are real and fabulous, the latter having supernatural powers and being able to metamorphose into animals, plants, insects or objects or they can revive, through miraculous cures, those who are killed.
Harap-Alb, the son of a thief, is a Handsome Boy from folk tales, worthy and brave, but he remains in the human area, being friendly, good and obedient, like a young man from Humuleşti. He is a positive character and embodies the high moral principles cultivated by any fairy tale, such as truth, justice, honesty, friendship, hospitality, courage, bravery, traits that emerge indirectly from events, deeds, from his own words and thoughts and directly from what other characters I'm talking about him.
