Notes on the Folklore of the Fjort is a book written by Richard Edward Dennett, which provides a detailed account of the customs, beliefs and practices of the Fjort people, a Bantu ethnic group living in the Congo region of Africa. The book is based on Dennett's personal experiences and observations during his time as a trader in the region in the late 19th century. The book is divided into several chapters, each focusing on a different aspect of Fjort folklore, including their religious beliefs, social customs, and traditional practices. Dennett provides detailed descriptions of the Fjort's rituals, ceremonies, and superstitions, as well as their beliefs about death, spirits, and the afterlife. In addition to providing a thorough analysis of Fjort folklore, Dennett also offers insights into the history and culture of the region, including the impact of European colonization on the Fjort people. The book is written in a clear and accessible style, making it an invaluable resource for anyone interested in African folklore, anthropology, or cultural studies.This Is A New Release Of The Original 1898 Edition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
