Description:For the past three decades, Lund University in Sweden has been running a research project on the heritage of the Kammu which has received international scholarly acclaim. The Kammu have a significance far beyond the realms of anthropology and folklore studies because they are a repository for much that that has been lost or ignored in the literate cultures of their neighbours: until recently they had an orally-based culture and as a people they ranged over much of southern China, Indochina and Thailand. Of particular importance, then, has been the recording of Kammu folklore before it succumbs to the modern world.A number of books have been generated by this project, among them a series of studies recounting and analysing the repertoire of a single storyteller. This is the sixth volume in this series and, unlike the earlier volumes which dealt with tellers from northern Laos, this one deals with a teller from the northeastern Muang Khwa area.The volume contains 19 stories, all annotated from both cultural and folklore aspects and illustrated by a young Kammu artist. One story is also given in the original language with an interlinear translation. Both tale type and motif indices are given.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
