Good Character and Bad Character

Six Ilianen Manobo stories transcribed from oral performances, are presented here. The stories selected are those frequently used to transmit highly-valued Manobo cultural goals and values, including those used as parable in establishing precedent in the formal setting of custom-law cases. An introductory chapter provides background information on the native storyteller and some characteristics of her performances, and analyzes the social role of storytelling within this culture. Some analysis of stories is also offered here. The stories follow; each includes texts in both Manobo and English, with footnotes containing cultural, historical, and linguistic information. Notes at the beginning of each story provide traditional and international context. The six story titles are: "Bad Character (Girl) and Good Character (Girl)"; "Wide-Back"; "Child of a Hermit"; "The Monkey and Terigtig-Bird"; "Tulalang"; and "The Hermit." Contains 57 references.

Oral and Written Narratives and Cultural Identity

  • Publisher: Peter Lang

This interdisciplinary volume centers on the interrelations of storytelling and various manifestations of cultural identity, from written to oral and from autobiographical to regional and national. Indigenous storytelling, as well as storytelling for and by children and the elderly, are the main focus of these essays. Together, these fifteen texts make a significant contribution toward a deeper understanding of various aspects of textual and oral narrative: they broaden the lines of inquiry into multidisciplinary and multicultural interests, particularly those centering on the construction, expression, and contextualization of various types of identity; and they illustrate the deployment of storytelling not only as testimony, contestation, and subversion - but also as peacebuilding. Many countries, languages and cultures are herein represented - from the United States and Canada to Japan, Singapore, and Malaysia, from English to Japanese to Greek to Italian to the languages of indigenous peoples of Latin America and the Philippines.
