Topic: Storytelling around the world
This class explores the art of traditional storytelling around the world. We will travel to countries in northern Europe, the Balkans, and West Africa, finishing our tour in North America, to meet some of the best traditional storytellers ever recorded by folklorists. By studying these women and men against the backdrop of their cultural contexts, we learn how storytellers use their traditional art to express their own ideas and identities.
