This is the third in a series of Cambodian readers prepared by
Franklin Huffman and Im Proum, following their Cambodian System of
Writing and Beginning Reader and Intermediate Cambodian Reader. The
reader contains thirty-two selections from some of the most
important and best-known works of Cambodian literature in a variety
of genres - historical prose, folktales, epic poetry, didactic
verse, religious literature, the modern novel, poems and songs, and
so forth. The introduction is a general survey in English of
Cambodian literature, and each section has an introduction in
Cambodian. For pedagogical reasons, the selections are presented
roughly in reverse chronological order, from modern prose to the
very esoteric and somewhat archaic verse of the Ream-Kie (the
Cambodian version of the Ramayana). The reader concludes with a
bibliography of some sixty items on Cambodian literature. The
glossary combines the 4,000 or so items introduced in this reader
with the more than 6,000 introduced in the previous two readers,
making it the largest Cambodian-English glossary compiled to date.
The definitions are more general and complete than one usually
finds in a simple reader glossary, in which definitions are
normally context-specific. Because the glossary is so useful in
itself, it is being made available separately as well as bound with
the reader.
