Autorenporträt

"K. Langloh Parker was an esteemed Australian writer and collector of Aboriginal legends. Born Catherine Eliza Somerville Field on May 1, 1856, in Encounter Bay, South Australia, she passed away on March 27, 1940, in Glenelg, South Australia.She spent her childhood on her father's property, Marra Station, in northern New South Wales, where she cultivated a profound appreciation for Aboriginal culture. Her interest in Aboriginal storytelling was partly influenced by a significant childhood event-an Aboriginal girl saved her from drowning.In 1875, Parker married Langloh Parker and relocated to Bangate Station, where she commenced the collection of stories from the Ualarai people. Parker's contributions remain crucial in preserving Aboriginal folklore, though they reflect European attitudes prevalent at the time."
