The Mythology and Folk-Tales of the Australian Aborigines is a scholarly academic paper—originally written in 1985 for a graduate-level Library Science course at the University of Washington. In this meticulously researched manuscript, Leeanna Ruth (Benedict) Mickelson examines the cosmology, oral traditions, and mythic structures of Australia’s First Nations peoples, presenting a clear and respectful survey of their cultural beliefs.
Written before online archives or digital research tools existed, this paper reflects the scholarly standards of its time: primary-source analysis, careful synthesis of ethnographic literature, and a structured examination of Dreamtime mythology, totemism, kinship systems, and oral storytelling traditions.
This edition republishes the complete academic manuscript exactly as originally written—preserving the 1980s scholarly voice and organizational style. A new Preface and Editor’s Note provide historical framing and acknowledge the evolution of terminology when discussing Aboriginal cultures.
Ideal for:
- Students and researchers in anthropology, folklore, or Indigenous oral traditions
- Readers seeking an academic source rather than a modern retelling
- Anyone studying Dreamtime cosmology, mythology, or the history of Indigenous studies
A faithful reproduction of a graduate scholarly paper, this work serves as both a cultural study and a tribute to academic research in the pre-digital era.
