Filipino Popular Tales is a collection of traditional folktales from the Philippines, compiled and translated by Dean Spouill Fansler in 1921. The book contains 34 stories, including myths, legends, and fables that have been passed down through generations of Filipino storytellers. The tales cover a wide range of themes, from love and betrayal to magic and adventure, and are filled with colorful characters such as brave warriors, cunning tricksters, and powerful supernatural beings. Fansler's translations are faithful to the original texts, preserving the unique language and cultural nuances of each story. Additionally, the book includes an introduction that provides historical and cultural context for the tales, as well as notes on the sources and variants of each story. Filipino Popular Tales is a valuable resource for anyone interested in Philippine folklore and literature, and a delightful read for lovers of fairy tales and folk stories.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
