Legends and Popular Tales of the Basque People - Paperback

by Mariana Monteiro (Author)

Of all of the literatures of the Iberian peninsula, that of the Basque people is probably the least known among the cognoscenti of the English-speaking world. In the final decade of the 19th century, Mariana Monteiro sought to bring at least a taste of this literature to the attention of the public by presenting in English prose 13 classic pieces. She also provides a glossary of untranslated terms, and there are illustrations by Harold Copping.
