Jean Morris

    Questa scrittrice britannica iniziò la sua carriera scrivendo romanzi polizieschi sotto lo pseudonimo di Kenneth O'Hara prima di affermarsi come J M Morris con romanzi fantasy per giovani adulti. Le sue opere, spesso ambientate in mondi riccamente concepiti come un'Atlantide tecnologicamente avanzata, esplorano complesse relazioni tra umani, esseri mitici e divinità. Le narrazioni di Morris sono caratterizzate dalla loro profondità e da un approccio revisionista ai miti e alle fiabe familiari.

      An Introduction to the Black People of South Africa

      • 184pagine
      • 7 ore di lettura

      This book is about the tribal people of Southern Africa who have ceased to exist. So much has changed, so much is changing and so much has already been lost. Dr Martin West and Jean Norris have collaborated to create an image in words and pictures of what remains of the traditional African way of life in South Africa. All the major groups are described; their customs, rituals and dress are shown and the meanings discussed. This is a record of a way of life centuries old but now, inexorably, drawing to an end. It may well be that at some point in the future, all that will remain of this proud heritage will be its oblique reflection in the new emerging black society
