Race and Nation in Puerto Rican Folklore

- Franz Boas and John Alden Mason in Porto Rico

Bag om Race and Nation in Puerto Rican Folklore

This book highlights Franz Boas’s historic trip to Puerto Rico in 1915, which included the documentation of oral folklore. On that trip, a rising anthropologist involved in the project, John Alden Mason, collected one of the largest oral folklore collections from any Spanish-speaking country or territory. The stories, many of them written by rural cultural informants, the Jibaros, offer an outstanding view of an early twentieth century Puerto Rican identity.
