Micmac Folklore

Micmac Folklore is a book written by Elsie Clews Parsons that explores the rich and diverse folklore of the Micmac people, a First Nations group from Eastern Canada. The book is a collection of stories, legends, and myths that have been passed down through generations of Micmac people, and it provides an insightful look into their culture and beliefs. Parsons, a prominent anthropologist and folklorist, gathered these stories during her travels to the Micmac communities in the early 20th century. The book covers a wide range of topics, including creation stories, animal tales, and supernatural beings. It also includes detailed explanations of the Micmac worldview and their relationship with the natural world. The stories are presented in their original form, with translations and annotations provided by Parsons. This book is an invaluable resource for anyone interested in First Nations folklore and the cultural heritage of the Micmac people.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
