{"product_id":"mythology-and-values-katherine-spencer-9780292735286","title":"Mythology and Values: An Analysis of Navaho Chantway Myths","description":"In this book, Katherine Spencer examines Navaho cultural values by studying a specific subset of Navaho mythology: chantway myths, part of ceremonies performed to cure illness. She begins with a summary of the general plot construction of chantway myths and the value themes presented in these plots, then discusses \"explanatory elements\" inserted by the narrators of the myths. She continues with a deeper analysis of the cultural value judgements conveyed by these myths. At the end of the book, Spencer includes abstracts of the myths she discusses.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Katherine Spencer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0292735286\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780292735286\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Texas Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/01\/1957\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 248\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.82lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.57d","brand":"Katherine Spencer","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46906552484095,"sku":"9780292735286","price":24.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_3991f4d0-9d7e-4be3-8861-8c32d988dbe7.jpg?v=1748770760","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/mythology-and-values-katherine-spencer-9780292735286","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
