Cuentos Afrocubanos (Patakines) (Spanish, Paperback)

Los patakines son un conjunto de narraciones orales de origen africano, que han sido transcritas al castellano en los rituales de la liturgia sagrada afrocubana. Estos relatos nos acercan a los orgenes de muchas deidades (orishas) y cuentan historias de estas culturas. En el sincretismo de la cultura cubana muchos de estos relatos se enriquecieron con elementos de la religin cristiana y con otros mitos propios de las diversas culturas que conviven en Cuba. The 'Patakines' are a collection of narratives, based in the original African oral tradition. They have been transcribed into Spanish by way of sacred Afro-Cuban liturgical rituals. The stories collected here bring us closer to the roots of the Orishas (deities of the Afro-Cuban tradition) and relay stories common in these cultures. Fed by the syncretism inherent in Cuban culture, many of these stories have been enriched by elements of Christian religion and other myths stemming from the diverse cultures that coexist in Cuba.
