Kutenai Tales is a book written by Franz Boas, a renowned anthropologist, linguist, and folklorist. The book is a collection of traditional stories and myths of the Kutenai people, a Native American tribe living in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States and Canada. The tales are told in the Kutenai language and are accompanied by English translations. The stories in Kutenai Tales offer a fascinating insight into the culture and beliefs of the Kutenai people. They cover a wide range of topics such as creation myths, animal fables, and legends of heroic figures. The narratives are rich in symbolism and metaphor, and they often convey important moral lessons and values. Boas, who was one of the pioneers of modern anthropology, was deeply fascinated by the Kutenai culture and language. He spent several years studying the tribe's customs, traditions, and mythology, and he was a strong advocate for preserving their cultural heritage. Kutenai Tales is a valuable resource for anyone interested in Native American folklore, anthropology, or linguistics. The book provides a rare glimpse into the world of the Kutenai people and their unique way of life. It is a testament to Boas's dedication to preserving the cultural diversity of the world and his passion for understanding the human experience.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
