Contes kassem français vol. 1

There are 24 kassem tales translated or paraphrased in French. These kassem-language tales are the heritage of all kassena-phones around the world. This is the first volume and the second volume will follow soon.

The kassena express their conception of life through tales and proverbs. It is thanks to this wisdom that the ancestors managed to educate their children. With the traditional tales one enters deeply into the soul of the people, one captures on the spot his impressions, his ideas, his feelings, his rules of life. Tales and traditional proverbs crystallize, so to speak, the wisdom of a people. These are lessons of experience of centenarians, applied to the various circumstances of practical life, lessons of common sense, words of old men.
