Publisher Description: Philippine Folk-Tales is complied of essays by different authors. Many of the stories are typical Eurasian tales as brought to the Philippines by the Spanish (among others). They had regional twists, but weren't very different from tales any Westerner would know. There are also a number of short folk tales, and a few that might be considered macabre. The book concludes with a section of traditional children's games. All in all there are well over 50 tales in this book, of various quality and length. |
