/ Book sale and signing
Tuesday, May 29, 5pm @AFpenang
Language:
reading in French and Malay. Presentation/Conference in French and English.
Les
Contes sauvages présentés ici ont été recueillis
à Singapour, mais ils proviennent de tout l’archipel du sud-est
asiatique, de Bornéo à Sumatra, en passant par la péninsule
malaise. Ils sont, pour l’essentiel d’entre eux, contemporains
de La Fontaine et de Molière, et sont à cette région
du monde ce que le Roman de Renart est à notre tradition littéraire
: un grand roman « comique », où les habitants des
Forêts profondes, le malicieux petit chevrotain Kancil en tête,
jouent le premier rôle, celui des humains, à qui ils empruntent
leurs émotions, leurs ruses, leurs travers... Traduits et adaptés
par Georges Voisset, ces textes anciens sont pour la première fois
présentés au public français, dans une édition
joliment illustrée qui s’adresse à tous les lecteurs,
les grands comme les petits.
This
collection of traditional animal tales presents a wide range of traditional
Mousedeer stories, directly adapted from ancient Malay original versions.
The Mousedeer, called Kancil or Pelanduk, is the little hero of the Malay
/ Indonesian Archipelago, and the stories here trace their ancestry from
both sides of the Malacca Straits, and from the XVI° and XVIIth centuries.
They are one of the lesser known Asian counterparts to the Western Renard
the Fox, or the La Fontaine Fables, with which they indeed share numerous
common Indian and Arabo-islamic ancestors. The stories selected range
from very famous children tales to a very rare “comic novel”,
and therefore will please all public being able to enjoy French.
