African Genesis: Folk Tales and Myths of Africa
Berkeley: Turtle Island Foundation, 1983. Softcover. 8vo., German explorer, ethnologist, and authority on prehistoric art Leo Frobenius startled the world of anthropology with his concept of 'continuity of cultures' - proposing, for instance, a link between Egyptian religious symbols and preexisting African mythology. In the course of his anthropological fieldwork, Frobenius and other members of his expeditions collected an abundance of authentic African folklore. This volume presents a rich selection of these fascinating tales, fables, and legends. Very Good with a reading crease and some handling and wear. Item #1112202514
