Kaffir Folk-Lore : A Selection From the Traditional Tales, Current Among the People Living on the Eastern Border of the Cape Colony, With Copious Explanatory Notes PDF
by Geo; McCall Theal
Description
Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility.
It will surprise no one to learn that these tales are already undergoing great changes among a very large section of the natives on the border.
Tens of thousands of Kaffirs have adopted the religion of the Europeans, and the facility with which such changes can be made as were alluded to in the last paragraph has encouraged them to introduce ideas borrowed from their teachers.
Thus with them Satan of whom they had no conception before the advent of Europeans - is now the prompter to evil, and morals are drawn that never could have entered their heads in days of old.
Their tales are thus a counterpart of the narrators, in possessing an adaptability to growth and a power of conformation to altered circumstances.
