Myths and the Malay Ruling Class
---
Sharifah Maznah Syed Omar |
This is sharp critique of the pernicious effects of Malay myths on Malay society. As with much of mythology the world over, legends are written with a view to keeping the general populace firmly tethered to the whims of the ruling class. While in many countries such folklore is now seen as a charming, but inaccurate, account of ancient history, the author argues that in modern Malaysia it is still used to befuddle many into giving deference to those who least deserve it. Very Good. Paperback. First Edition. 121 pages.
