First published in 1868, this volume contains a collection of
twenty-four traditional stories from the southern Indian state of
Maharashtra. Mary Eliza Isabella Frere (1845 1911) travelled to
India in 1863 to stay with her father, Sir Bartle Frere, the
Governor of Bombay. She became fascinated with Indian culture and
transcribed these stories from her ayah (nanny and chaperone) Anna
Liberata da Souza who had been told them by her grandmother.
Expressive and detailed, these stories formed part of southern
India's traditional oral culture, at risk of being lost. This
volume includes an introduction by Sir Bartle Frere exploring the
cultural background to the stories and a chapter by Anna Liberata
da Souza describing her life and childhood. This volume was
extremely popular, being reprinted in four editions by 1889 and
encouraging the study of comparative mythology while revealing new
information concerning Indian traditional culture.
