ЧТО ОЗНАЧАЕТ СЛОВО ANANCY
Ананси
Ананси - обманщик - западноафриканский бог. Он часто принимает форму паука и считается богом всего знания историй. Он также является одним из самых важных персонажей фольклора Западной Африки и Карибского бассейна. Он также известен как Ananse, Kwaku Ananse и Anancy; и в южных Соединенных Штатах он превратился в тетушку Нэнси. Он паук, но часто действует и появляется как человек. Считается, что сказки Ананси возникли в народе Ашанти в Гане. Позднее они распространились на другие группы Аканов, а затем в Вест-Индию, Суринам и Нидерландские Антильские острова. На Кюрасао, Арубе и Бонайре он известен как Нанци, а его жена - Ши Мария. Ананси изображен разными способами. Иногда он похож на обычного паука, иногда он является пауком в одежде или с человеческим лицом, и иногда он выглядит гораздо больше как человек с элементами паука, например, восемь ног.
