Description: | A recording and transcription/translation of the traditional story of Lepengam and Itupo Loniu, from the Tewi clan, as told by John Kris Hinduwan. It includes a song sung by Itupo Loniu. This recording was made immediately after John Kris had told the story in Tok Pisin. Synopsis: Itupo Loniu and her husband Lepengam were spearing fish when a she-devil saw them and decided she wanted Lepengam. The next day the she-devil's husband changed her into a woman and she took Itupo Loniu's place. At first Lepengam didn't realize, and he stayed with the she-devil. However, when they were eating he noticed that she ate the plate along with the food, and he figured out that she must be a devil. He heard Itupo Loniu sing out to him and he resolved to kill the devil and retrieve his wife. The next day the she-devil's husband came back and Lepengam killed him, removed his liver (or heart), and took back Itupo Loniu, leaving the she-devil with her husband's corpse. The recording includes many interruptions by Mary Clara, who corrects John Kris when he code-switches into Tok Pisin. | |
