Produktbeschreibung
This is the first book, of a project of four, about the female pantheon of Yoruba mythology. The following issues will be covered in this volume: how to be the hero of your story, the various types of narrative (the parable, the fable, the fairy tale, the mythical narrative), myth and science, and an overview of this mythology.
