Pages very clean, no markings. Ships from Hawaii. ==. Rennell and Bellona are two Polynesian Outlier islands in the British Solomon Islands."The traditions of the Rennellese and Bellonese are given in their own words, with . translations into English in parallel columns" == The people of Rennell and Bellona often refer to their islands in their rituals and poetry as two canoes. The ancestors who discovered the islands came from the east in two canoes, and the crews of these two canoes laid the foundation for the culture of Rennell and Bellona. Each island, furthermore, is canoe-shaped, with low-lying interior and high coastal walls not unlike the sides of a canoe. This is why we have named this volume of traditions From the Two Canoes, and this use of "two" is in harmony with the Rennellese and Bellonese predilection for the dual number. A collaboration of persons possessing different academic backgrounds and inhabiting different hemispheres and speaking different languages is unusual, but to each of them it has proved beneficial. Elbert was interested primarily in language and folklore for their own sake and for the information they provided about Polynesian prehistory; Monberg was interested in what the tales and traditions revealed about the culture, particularly the religious experiences of the people before they accepted Christianity. Their collections reflect these interests to some extent. Elbert collected many secular tales concerning the vicissitudes of ordinary folk.
