Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Lamba Folk-Lore' is an extensive and authoritative collection of the oral traditions, myths, and legends of the Lamba people of Central Africa. Compiled by the distinguished linguist and anthropologist Clement M. Doke, this work serves as a vital record of the cultural heritage and intellectual life of the Lamba community. The volume features a wide array of narrative forms, including animal fables, moral tales, and origin myths, providing deep insight into the social values and cosmological beliefs of the region.In addition to narrative prose, the collection includes traditional songs, proverbs, and riddles, capturing the rhythmic and metaphorical richness of the Lamba language.

This scholarly memoir is an essential resource for students of African studies, folklore, and anthropology, preserving a wealth of indigenous knowledge.
