Such wakes also include other aesthetic and expressive practices such as jokes, song games, board games, and prayer. Situated within their performance contexts, the stories represent a highly ritualized corpus of oral knowledge that, for centuries, has been preserved and cultivated by African-descendant populations in the Americas. Ethnomusicologist George List collected these tales throughout his decades-long fieldwork among the rural costenos in the mid-20th century and, with the help of a research team, transcribed and translated them into English before his death in 2008. In this volume, John Holmes McDowell and Juan Sebastian Rojas E. bring this previously unpublished manuscript to light, providing commentary on the transcriptions and translations, addtional cultural context through a new introduction, and a further typological and cultural analysis by Hasan M. El-Shamy. Supplementing the transcribed and translated texts are links to the original Spanish recordings of the stories, allowing readers to follow along and experience the traditional telling of the tales for themselves. -- from back cover. 546 $a Tales in both English and Spanish; commentary in English. 650 0 $a Tales $z Atlantic Coast. $z Atlantic Coast. 650 0 $a Folklore $z Atlantic Coast. $z Atlantic Coast. 650 0 $a Animals $v Folklore. 650 0 $a Blacks $z Atlantic Coast $z Atlantic Coast $x Social life and customs. 650 0 $a Funeral rites and ceremonies $z Atlantic Coast. $z Atlantic Coast. 650 7 $a Animals. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00809468 650 7 $a Blacks $x Social life and customs. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00834008 650 7 $a Folklore. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00930306 650 7 $a Funeral rites and ceremonies. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00936223 650 7 $a Manners and customs. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01007815 650 7 $a Tales. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01142246 651 0 $a Atlantic Coast (Colombia) $x Social life and customs. 651 7 $a Colombia $z Atlantic Coast. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01240707 655 7 $a Folklore. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423784 700 1 $a McDowell, John Holmes, $d 1946- $e editor. 700 1 $a Rojas E., Juan Sebastian, $e editor. 700 1 $a El-Shamy, Hasan M., $d 1938- $e contributor. 776 08 $i Online version: $a List, George, 1911-2008, author. $t Animal tales from the Caribbean $d Bloomington : Indiana University Press, 2017 $z 9780253031174 $w (DLC) 2017032848 830 0 $a Special publications of the Folklore Institute ; $v no. 9. 941 $a 2 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231018024025.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20190103014928.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=8B897BFA580511E8A8F83C5097128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
