Book excerpt: In ancient africa, myths helped people try to make sense of the world around them. There are different types of african myths; some try to explain the origin of things; others speak of heroes who had supernatural abilities, and other stories are told to caution the people and show them how to behave well. The people told and retold these stories through different generations until they came to be held as the truth. This book focuses on some of the most popular african myths and reveals how they have shaped the culture and values of the respective communities. You will meet in this book: A princess who gets eaten by a monster and then goes on to marry a mysterious prince who is not all he seems to be A young woman who is sacrificed to end a drought but rescued by the young man who loves her dearly The children who put the sun into the sky The fanged deer whose eyes turned into the stars The clever lad who saves his uncle from death and outsmarts every enemy he comes across A great number of african folktales have been transmitted orally from person to person down through the ages, but since the nineteenth century, many stories have been written down and transmitted to audiences beyond the boundaries of the cultures that created them. One important-and tragic-conduit for the transmission of these stories beyond african shores was the european slave trade. Captured africans who were brought to the americas and the caribbean fought to keep alive what they could of their home cultures, and this included their folktale traditions.

Download or read book African Myths written by J.K. Jackson and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2018-12-15 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sub-Saharan Africa is a land of colourful contrasts and diverse cultures. Despite the destructive influences of colonialism and the slave trade and the lack of early written records, Africa has persevered with its powerful tradition of storytelling, with tales of its history passed down in songs and stories through the generations. Because of the huge diversity of lifestyles and traditions, no real unified mythology exists in Africa, but broadly speaking, a number of beliefs, ideas and themes are shared by African peoples. So this collection offers a selection of descriptions and tales, often those recorded faithfully by some of the first to put them to paper – tales of the gods, creation stories, trickster adventures, animal fables and stories which amuse and teach – from Olukun’s Revenge, from the Yoruba people of west Africa, to The Story of the Glutton, from the Bantu-speaking peoples of east Africa, all brought together with the aim of providing an insight into the boundless and vibrant world of African myth. FLAME TREE 451: From mystery to crime, supernatural to horror and myth, fantasy and science fiction, Flame Tree 451 offers a healthy diet of werewolves and mechanical men, blood-lusty vampires, dastardly villains, mad scientists, secret worlds, lost civilizations and escapist fantasies. Discover a storehouse of tales gathered specifically for the reader of the fantastic.
