Last week’s free rerelease of Sino-Platonic Papers detailed the language of the Dagur (Dawo’er, Dáwò’ěrzú, 達斡爾族, 达斡尔族). This week’s rerelease is a companion volume: China’s Dagur Minority: Society, Shamanism, and Folklore (11.4 MB PDF), by Kevin Stuart, Li Xuewei, and Shelear.
This is a book-length work, filled with folktales (in English only) and all sorts of information.
The table of contents is available as a quick-loading Web page for those who would like to check that before downloading the whole work.
This issue of Sino-Platonic Papers was first published in December 1994.
For the volume on the Dagur language, see Introduction, Grammar, and Sample Sentences for Dagur (1.6 MB PDF).
