520    Structure, Meaning and Ritual in the Narratives of the 
       Southern San analyses texts drawn from the Bleek and Lloyd
       Archive - arguably one of the most important collections 
       for the understanding of South African cultural heritage 
       and in particular the traditions of the /Xam, South 
       Africa’s ‘first people’. Initially appearing in a now rare
       1986 edition and here re-issued for the first time, the 
       doctoral thesis on which the book is based became the 
       catalyst for much scholarly research. The book offers an 
       analysis of the entire corpus of /Xam narratives found in 
       the Bleek and Lloyd collection, focusing particularly on 
       the cycle of narratives concerning the trickster /Kaggen 
       (Mantis). These are examined on three levels from the 
       ‘deep structures’ with resonances in other areas of /Xam 
       culture and supernatural belief, through the recurring 
       patterns of narrative composition apparent across the 
       cycle and finally touching on the observable differences 
       in the performances by the various /Xam collaborators. 
       Hewitt’s text remains the only comprehensive and detailed 
       study of /Xam narrative, and it has become itself the 
       object of study by researchers and PhD candidates in South
       Africa, the United Kingdom, Canada and elsewhere. This new
       edition at last makes Hewitt’s important work more widely 
       available. It will be a welcome addition to the recently 
       burgeoning literature on the place of the /Xam hunter-
       gatherers in the complex history of South African culture 
       and society.
