Book Synopsis How to Read a Folktale by : Lee Haring
Download or read book How to Read a Folktale written by Lee Haring and published by Open Book Publishers. This book was released on 2013-10-24 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How to Read a Folktale offers the first English translation of Ibonia, a spellbinding tale of old Madagascar. Ibonia is a folktale on epic scale. Much of its plot sounds familiar: a powerful royal hero attempts to rescue his betrothed from an evil adversary and, after a series of tests and duels, he and his lover are joyfully united with a marriage that affirms the royal lineage. These fairytale elements link Ibonia with European folktales, but the tale is still very much a product of Madagascar. It contains African-style praise poetry for the hero; it presents Indonesian-style riddles and poems; and it inflates the form of folktale into epic proportions. Recorded when the Malagasy people were experiencing European contact for the first time, Ibonia proclaims the power of the ancestors against the foreigner. Through Ibonia, Lee Haring expertly helps readers to understand the very nature of folktales. His definitive translation, originally published in 1994, has now been fully revised to emphasize its poetic qualities, while his new introduction and detailed notes give insight into the fascinating imagination and symbols of the Malagasy. Haring’s research connects this exotic narrative with fundamental questions not only of anthropology but also of literary criticism.
Download or read book Umbundu written by Merlin Ennis and published by Boston : Beacon Press. This book was released on 1962 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: En medio de la selva salvaje de África Occidental viven los ovimbundu de Angola. Durante generaciones, su cultura se ha transmitido de boca en boca a través del arte de los narradores tribales. Ahora, por primera vez, un norteamericano que vivió entre ellos durante casi 40 años ha traducido y puesto por escrito estos cuentos y leyendas de los umbundu, sin alterar su tono, ritmo y franco detalle. Hay una mina de material fresco en estas historias de magia y aventuras extrañas, con una visión especial de la sensibilidad, las tensiones, la exuberancia y el orgullo de Angola y el África Negra. Aquí hay emocionantes registros de hechos y fantasías, de orgas, tabúes, brujas, canibalismo, cortejo primitivo, problemas domésticos tribales, caza, hambruna, aventuras con animales y muchas más complicaciones dramáticas intrínsecas en las vidas y costumbres de estos pueblos aislados durante mucho tiempo. También hay fascinantes paralelismos con las historias del «Tío Remus» de los negros del Sur e incluso con la mitología clásica y nórdica. Los cuentos están ordenados por temas y asuntos, y una introducción de Albert Lord ofrece un análisis comparativo de muchos tipos de relatos. Se trata de una lectura enriquecedora para todos los que deseen saborear el verdadero sabor de los cuentos populares africanos y la vida tribal, y para todos los interesados en el hombre y sus mitos y en cómo revelan el alma inconsciente de un pueblo.

Download or read book African Tales written by Harold Scheub and published by Univ of Wisconsin Press. This book was released on 2005-04-29 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The latest work from Harold Scheub, one of the world's leading scholars of African folktales, is the broadest collection yet assembled with tales from the entire continent of Africa, north to south. It brings together mythic, fantastic, and coming-of-age tales, some transcribed more than a hundred years ago, others dating to modern-day Africa. Scheub includes the work of storytellers from major African language groups, as well as many storytellers whose work is not often heard outside of Africa. This anthology offers a classroom-ready collection that should appeal to any scholar of African literature and culture. Realizing that these tales are part of a dying art, Scheub writes for the inner ear in everyone, bringing an oral tradition to life in written form.
