    African folk tales are composed of folk tales with different characteristics, integrating geography, history, customs and other contents, describing the social life of Africa and the living conditions of various characters, with distinctive African characteristics.

    The folk tales in the book include "The Miserly Rich Man" which tells us not to be greedy, "A Trumpeter" that teaches people to be honest, and "The Cat and Mouse" that tells people not to trust others

    And my favorite is "The Rich Man and the Barber".

    The Rich Man and the Barber is about a wealthy man who is philanthropist.

    Issa once received a dream from God.

    Tell him that tomorrow a poor man will come to his house, and that he will get a lot of gold coins if he beats him hard with a stick. Issa did so, and did get a lot of valuable gold coins. All this was seen by the barber Su Aib who was together, so Su Aib also beat the poor with a stick at night, but was arrested by the poor people.

    Issa took Suaibu home and explained to him the cause of the incident, which finally brought him to his senses.

    This little story tells us that we can't blindly imitate others in doing things, and I deeply agree with this, just like I once learned to play the guzheng.

    The music "Liuyang River".

    There was an allegro in the middle, and I saw that the teacher played very fast, and his fingers were smooth like elves dancing on the strings, which was very stylish, so I imitated the teacher to play fast. It looks like it's out, but it doesn't take into account the smoothness and mistones at all, and the result is that it is played intermittently, mixed with mistones. It took me a while to correct this shortcoming, and it really outweighed the loss.

    Now I don't blindly imitate others anymore.

    African folk tales are different from other folk tales we know in that they generally use animals as the protagonists, giving different character meanings to various animals as metaphors for different characters in life. Although the way the story is expressed is different from ours, it is all about the purpose of preaching that good will be rewarded with good and evil will be rewarded with evil, which is the same as our folk tales.

    The folk tales bred by ancient African civilizations tell us the great wisdom of life, such as honesty, bravery, optimism, sharing, and responsibility, and help us establish the right attitude and shape the quality of resilience. African Folktales

    I benefited a lot!

    There are many African folk tales, such as Chinese folk tales and legends, I will briefly talk about a few famous African folk tales1, the singing of fools in "The Wise Man and the Fool" has elements of condemnation, reminiscence, pouring, expression, reasoning, lyricism, etc., which is a speech ritual and a main expression. The fool's father and brother greedily ate the fish he caught, but did not give him any left. The fool is not stupid, and he repeatedly tolerates his wise brother for fooling him, just to wait for the time when his cruel brother and father will come to their senses.

    But when such a time did not come, he chose not to be tolerant. 2. The heroine of "Ngongba's Basket" Ngongba is fishing alone by the river, reminiscing about her mother's lack of care for her, while imagining the scene of her sisters happily catching fish, she is sad because she is sick and cannot go fishing with her sisters, and on the other hand, because she is alone at the moment, she suddenly feels lonely, scared and worried. 3. "The Adventures of Mrilai" reminds people to be grateful to those who have helped them.

    4 "The Giant in Water" advocates the punishment of the wicked and justice, and at the same time calls for tolerance, forgiveness and forgiveness.

    2. In African folk tales, Sundiata, the lion of Mandin, is a national hero who is dedicated to serving the people and daring to defeat the invading enemy. In the distant lands of Africa, in their leisure time, one person will lead the beautiful story, and the audience will sing it together. The heroic story of Sundiata, the 'Lion of Mandin', has been passed down from generation to generation.

    "African Myths and Stories (Phonetic Edition)" Introduction: Thousands of years of word of mouth convey eternal messages. Today, people inadvertently refer to an old story.

    Such as "The Last Supper", "Arabian Nights", "Oedipus who killed his father and married his mother" and so on. What kind of secrets are hidden in these stories? Also, where did the earth and the sky come about?

    Who created the sun and moon? How is corn grown......For these things, the ancestors of mankind pondered bitterly, and now we can share the joy of thinking with them. What is Mythology?

    Myth is the first impression of human beings on the world, it is the first understanding and thinking of human beings on all major issues, and all our knowledge today is nothing but the continuation of this understanding and thinking. Mythology is almost the sum total of human knowledge in a certain period of time, it is the treasure house of human thought, and it is the starting point of human knowledge (this is especially true of ancient mythology).
