Tale Of The Nisan Shaman
''The Tale of the Nisan Shaman'' (also spelled "Nishan"; ) is a Manchu folk tale about a female shaman who resurrects the son of a rich landowner. Versions Variants of the tale are also found among the Evenks, Daurs, and Nanais. The tale was transmitted orally, and manuscripts were rare; Soviet ethnographer Alexander Grebenshchikov managed to purchase two during his early research trips to Northeast China in 1908 and 1909, the first near Qiqihar, and the second at Aigun. He had a third manuscript given to him in Vladivostok in 1913 by a man named Dekdenge. The Qiqihar manuscript shows some unusual features in its orthography; in particular, the verbal tense markers therein are written separately from their base verbs, whereas the standard practise in written Manchu is to write them attached to the base verb. A 1930s ethnographic survey by Johnson Ling of the Academia Sinica () recorded eighteen different versions of the tale among Nanai tribes on the Songhua River. , based on ...
