Excerpt from African StoriesMr. Helser has given us an accurate translation of the native material which we hope will sometime be supplemented by the publication of the native texts. What may appear now and then as a curious turn of English style is not a defect, it is due to the close adherence to native style. Thus the mode of thought and expression of the native is brought clearly before us. Taken in connection with the voluminous litera ture on Sudanese folklore, the tales give us an insight into the inner life of the natives that cannot be equalled by any description of a traveller, no matter how observant he may be. Nothing renders the spirit of an alien culture more clearly than the tales dealing with everyday life, with adventures that seem interest ing to the native, and with their beliefs in regard to the supernatural.The collection is a valuable contribution to native lore and will be found of great interest to the reader who wishes to understand alien cultures.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
