These stories originated in West Africa, just like the name 'Anansi' which means spider in the Akan language. African slaves brought these stories to the Caribbean, the USA and other parts of the diaspora where they became part of the culture of countries such as Guyana, Jamaica, Surinam, the Netherland Antilles and South Carolina. These stories are a source of entertainment and amusement. However, what are the characteristics of these stories? How do these folktales mirror humanity? What is the significance of the trickster for the study of human psychology? Anansi Folktales in the diaspora would provide some of these answers.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Victorine Grannum-Solomon\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1477460748\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781477460740\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/13\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 134\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.42lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.29d","brand":"Victorine Grannum-Solomon","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44227763962111,"sku":"9781477460740","price":14.2,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_7ed63ca2-db2a-49e1-b35e-6eb800119258.jpg?v=1692810470","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/anansi-folktales-in-the-diaspora-victorine-grannum-solomon-9781477460740","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
