Moral Fictions: Tamil Folktales in Oral Tradition
AU$80.00 Read MoreAdd to cartStuart Blackburn
Helskinki: Suomalainen Tiedeakatemia, 2001.Is fantasy the defining element in fairy tales? This question is the starting point for Stuart Blackburn’s study of Tamil oral tales. Having collected over 300 tales, 100 of which are translated in this book, he concludes that although fantasy, and humour, are present, at the core of the tales lies a moral vision in which wrongdoing, especially physical cruelty, is punished. Only the second full-length study of Indian tales from oral tradition, this book places the Tamil tradition in an international context, describes the telling sessions and includes tellers’ interpretations of some tales. FF Communications No. 278 published by the Finnish Academy of Science and Letters.

The Coon in the Box: A Global Folktale in African-American Tradition
AU$50.00 Read MoreAdd to cartJohn Minton; David Evans
Helskinki: Suomalainen Tiedeakatemia, 2001.Among the most popular of all African-American folktales is the story folklorists know as The Coon in the Box, itself a derivative of the extremely old and widespread narrative usually identified, after Brothers Grimm, as Doctor Know-All (Doktor Allwissend) (AaTh 1641). Not coincidentally, this item has served as a centerpiece in the debate over the sources of New World black folktales. A detailed analysis of The Coon in the Box, its life history and cultural context thus reveals a great deal not only of the nature of African-American oral narratives in and of themselves, but also of the challenges confronting scholars in investigating the origins, diffusion, and development of these traditions. FF Communications No. 277 published by the Finnish Academy of Science and Letters.
