Présentation de l'éditeur :
The tales here published were collected in the course of my repeated field trips to the Crow Reservation, some of them as early as the summer of 1907. However, owing to the pressure of work on other phases of Crow culture, a systematic attempt to collect folklore only dates back to 114, The majority of the stories were collected in English from Indians of theL odge Grass district; a fair number were also secured in the original and will be published as texts at an appropriate time. A consideration of stylistic features is best deferred until then; doubtless many nice observations might be made by intensively comparing texts of the same tale from different Plains Indian tribes. The present collection, besides representing Crow fiction and helping to illustrate the religious thought of this people, suggests certain definite conclusions of an historical nature. It also indicates, however, how imperfectly Plains Indian mythology is as yet known and may stimulate efforts to supply the deficiency. A word may be desirable as to the comparative notes. At the present stage of inquiry it no longer seems desirable to cite all the extant parallels of widespread motives but only the historically significant ones. This will explain my restraint in this respect where many additional sources might have been mentioned, to the confusion rather than the enlightenment of the reader. For the Kutenai references I am indebted toP rofessor Boas, whose collection was kindly placed at my disposal. It is to be published as Bulletin 59 of theB ureau of American Ethnology. Robert H. Lowie. September,

Description du livre Paperback. Etat : New. New softcover in glossy printed wraps. Text is clean and free of marks or underlining. (5.9 x 0.72 x 8.97 inches) Includes an appendix, bibliography, and photos. 308 pp. Fast shipping in a secure book box mailer with tracking. Beginning in 1907, the anthropologist Robert H. Lowie visited the Crow Indians at their reservation in Montana. He listened to tales that for many generations had been told around campfires in winter. Vivid tales of Old-Man-Coyote in his various guises; heroic accounts of Lodge-Boy and the Thunderbirds; supernatural stories about Raven-Face and the Spurned Lover; and other tales involving the Bear-Woman, the Offended Turtle, the Skeptical Husband--all these were recorded by Lowie. They were originally published in 1918 in an Anthropological Paper by the American Museum of Natural History. Myths and Traditions of the Crow Indians is now reprinted with a new introduction by Peter Nabokov. These concretely detailed accounts served the Crow Indians as entertainers, moral lessons, cultural records, and guides to the workings of the universe. N° de réf. du vendeur 201070
