Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Treasury of Eskimo Tales The Central Eskimo live away up north in that great American archipelago which lies be tween Hudson Bay, Baffin Bay, and the Arctic Ocean; an archipelago in which the islands are so large, so numerous, and so irregular in outline that, as one looks at a map of them, he could fancy they were chunks of the continent which had been broken to pieces by some huge iceberg that bumped into it. The land is ice-bound during so much of the year that the inhabitants cannot depend upon getting a living by the cultivation of the soil, and have to subsist almost entirely upon meat which they get from reindeer, seal, bear, whale, and walrus.

Download or read book ESKIMO FOLK TALES 53 Inuit folk and failry tales written by and published by Abela Publishing Ltd. This book was released on 2020-05-26 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE 53 ESKIMO, OR INUIT, folk tales contained herein were collected in various parts of Greenland, and recorded directly from the lips of the Inuit(Eskimo) story-tellers by Knud Rasmussen [1879 – 1933], a well-known Danish explorer; himself part Inuit/Eskimo. Like most American Indian tales, these 53 stories are unlike any European children's story. There is no Puss in Boots, nor a Cinderella or a Snow White or Sleeping Beauty. Instead you will find unique stories and tales that the Inuit used to teach their children the moral lessons of life. These stories were usually told around a campfire with great effect. Tales like: Nukunguasik, Who Escaped From The Tupilak, The Insects That Wooed A Wifeless Man, The Very Obstinate Man, The Dwarfs, The Raven And The Goose, How The Fog Came, The Giant Dog and many more. The constellation of the Great Bear is explained in one story as is the origin of Venus in another. There is a version of the Bluebeard theme in imarasugssuaq, "who, it is said, was wont to eat his wives." Instances of friendship and affection between human beings and animals are found, as in the tale of the Foster-Mother And The Bear. Fairy tales are common in all cultures worldwide. A test of how good they are is easily fulfilled by demands for another, usually by a little-one tugging at your sleeve and coyly begging for “’nutther ple-e-e-se,” and this book has many of these. The 12 grey scale illustrations are by native Inuits (Eskimos) artists are not drawn to illustrate the particular stories, but represent typical scenes such as they are described. As regards their contents, the stories present, more clearly, perhaps, than any objective study, the daily life of the Eskimos of old, their habit of thought, their conception of the universe, and the curious "spirit world" which formed their religion and mythology. In point of form they are refreshingly unique and highly enjoyable. 10% of the profit from the sale of this book will be donated to charities. ================== KEYWORDS/TAGS: Eskimo folk tales, Inuit, Canada, Alaska, Greenland, Knud Rasmussen, two friends, travel the world, coming of man, long time ago, nukunguasik, escape, tupilak, qujavarssuk, kunigseq, bear, foster-son, ímarasugssuaq, qalaganguase, land of ghosts, isigaligarssik, woo wifeless man, obstinate man, dwarfs, dwarves, bottom of the sea, frighten people, raven and the goose, when the ravens could speak, makíte, asaloq, ukaleq, íkardlítuarssuk, raven wanted a wife, vixen for a wife, great bear, star, woman with an iron tail, fog came, avenge the widows, search for a son, atungait, wandering, kumagdlak, living arrows, giant dog, inland-dwellers, etah, stab, soul, bodies of beasts, papik, patussorssuaq, artuk, forbidden things, thunder spirits, nerrivik, kagssagssuk, homeless boy, strong man, qasiagssaq, great liar, eagle, whale, two outcasts, atdlarneq, great glutton, angangŭjuk, atarssuaq, puagssuaq, tungujuluk, saunikoq, anarteq, guillemot, kanagssuaq, metis flag, angmagssalik, hunter in kayak, sarqiserasak, spirit flight, bow and arrow, half dog, half human, evil spirit, helping spirit, flying race, angiut,
