The World of the Khanty Epic Hero-Princes

- An Exploration of a Siberian Oral Tradition

About The World of the Khanty Epic Hero-Princes

This book analyses the Khanty tradition of oral heroic epic poetry, showing an 'exotic', 'archaic' verbal art genre to be the work of serious, highly aware thinkers, and allowing readers interested in anthropology and comparative literature to examine the world view of an indigenous culture as reconstructed from its own words.
