Reflections on African folktales:

Singing, dancing and listening to stories play an important role in the cultural life of people of all ethnic groups in Africa. We can hardly find a country. They do not have their own beautiful fairy tales.

For Africans, storytelling is not an ordinary entertainment, but a serious education. For every story told by the storyteller, the audience should always hold an attitude of respect or fear. Sometimes, the storyteller tells the story and the audience will join in.

The South African Lamba people still retain this story form called "Urushi": one person dominates the story, mixed with some songs, and all the listeners are accompanied by chorus. Ivy people in West Africa also tell stories in this way.

Sinega Gadzekp, the composer of Ivy, said: "When we work or play, we sing our folk songs. We mourn our friends with songs and express our joy with songs. When we listen to a long story, our songs make the story come alive. "

In many African nations, only stories are allowed at night. According to/kloc-Chapman, a British traveler in the mid-9th century, Kapoor people (Xhosa people) are not allowed to tell stories during the day. Another traveler, Lobinni Uss, also confirmed that among some Berber tribes in North Africa (Libyan, Algerian, Tunisia and Moroccan tribes speak Semite-hammett).

Stories are still forbidden during the day. Every night, when night falls on all tropical forests, people light piles of bonfires. Adults and children who have worked hard all day gather around the campfire and listen attentively to fascinating fairy tales.
