Bücher von Jonathan David Bobaljik

This volume is the first in a planned series presenting the previously unpublished Itelmen material in Waldemar Bogoras's Itelmen notebooks from January and February 1901. The original notebooks are held in the Archives of the Russian Academy of Sciences, St. Petersburg. This first volume presents the Itelmen language folktales and narratives from the notebooks. This volume includes reproductions of the notebook pages with faithful transcriptions on facing pages, as well as standardized renderings in contemporary Itelmen with interlinear gloss and free translation in English and Russian, and also Bogoras' own notes and additional notes by the editor.
