| 520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
| Summary, etc. | "Negro myths from the Georgia coast, told in the vernacular" by Jr. Charles C. Jones is a collection of folktales written in the late 19th century. It presents animal fables, origin stories, and plantation anecdotes from the Georgia and Carolina sea islands, told in the local dialect. Recurring trickster figures like Buh Rabbit spar with stronger beasts such as Buh Wolf and Buh Alligatur, while brief human sketches and closing morals highlight themes of cunning, promise-keeping, and comeuppance. The opening of the collection frames the work with a dedication and a prefatory note distinguishing coastal dialect and lore from the better-known Middle Georgia tales, followed by a contents list and a swift run of short myths. Early stories explain animal habits (why the alligator hugs the riverbank, why buzzard shuns crabs, why owl preys on roosters at night) and showcase Buh Rabbit’s tricks (escaping the Tar Baby in the brier patch, scaring beasts with a horn, eating a neighbor’s butter under the guise of baptisms). Other episodes caution against arrogance or bad faith, as in the poor man who betrays a helpful snake and loses everything, two “friends” tested by a bear, a monkey who learns what “trouble” is, and a prank on an old man by a master posing as Death. Throughout, the tales are brief, lively, and vernacular-driven, often ending with plainspoken morals voiced by named narrators. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
