Akan Ashanti Folktales: Robert S. Rattray
75 Ananse stories written in Twi with english translations.
Format: [PDF] 328 Pages
Cost: $15.00
 

A collection of Akan folktales recorded in the Ashanti and Kwawu areas of Ghana. Each folktale in Twi/Akan is followed by an English translation. These folktales, performed only at night, were more akin to theater than myths, histories, religious tales, or other forms of storytelling in that they were performed before crowds as a form of entertainment and amusement with a narrator accompanied by actors dressed in costumes. Performances took place in the street with the audience seated in a circle or within one of the three stage-like verandas found in the roofless inner courtyard of the traditional Akan home, with the performers in one veranda and the audience standing or seated in the other two open verandas while others gathered under the eaves.
