A compassionate portrait of early nineteenth- century Hawaii, "The Conversion of Kaahumanu" charts the lives of five women during the traumatic, transforming events that followed Western contact. Set in post-World War II Hawaii, "Emmalehua" tells the story of a young Hawaiian woman struggling to preserve a cherished cultural heritage in a world eager to forget the past and embrace the new American dream. Through history, humor, and a whodunnit plot, the past and present collide in "Ola Na Iwi," which explores the issues surrounding the treatment of indigenous human remains.

Book Hawaiian National Bibliography  1780 1900

Download or read book Hawaiian National Bibliography 1780 1900 written by David W. Forbes and published by University of Hawaii Press. This book was released on 2001-11-30 with total page 760 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Compiled and annotated by David W. Forbes Volume 3 comprises entries recording the last years of the rule of Kamehameha III, the reigns of Kamehameha IV, Kamehameha V, and Lunalilo, and the first seven years of the Kalakaua era. During this period government was firmly established as a constitutional monarchy; the 1864 constitution of Kamehameha V increased the power of the monarch and remained in effect until 1887. Following the successful negotiation by the Kalakaua government of a reciprocity treaty with the United States in 1875, Hawai'i experienced great prosperity. At the same time, however, it came under increasing economic and social domination by American interests. As in the first two volumes, all books, pamphlets, single-sheet publications, and significant periodical articles have been included. Extensive annotations describe the more than 1,200 works listed, and the exact title, date of publication, size of the volume, collation of pages, number and type of plates and maps, references, and location of copies are given for each publication.

Book excerpt: This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1899 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER XIII IN HAWAII'S LEE To End one's journey at Honolulu would be to know nothing of the Hawaiian islands. The capital is as cosmopolitan as all seaports. After all, the country's the place to study. Of course, Kilauea is the objective point--there is something to fascinate even about a quiescent volcano, and no one can afford to miss the sight of one of the earth's breathing-places. There are ways and ways to go. One is short and one is long, and the professional globe-trotter will always choose the shorter; but it is the long way, down Hawaii's lee, that gives the most interesting sights and scenes of all the islands. In the Kona district live the natives of purest blood. There has been less mixture of race here than elsewhere, and the Kanaka has married a woman of his own race, and has multiplied. You are astonished at the number of little brown children that greet you at the landings. The men and women are happy and flowertrimmed. What do they care for changing governments and altered flags? They are safe and sheltered and far away. There is much talk in Honolulu of choppy channels and the sickness of the sea, and, in truth, the sea is not a mill-pond. But the Mauna Loa, which travels this way every ten days, laden with passengers and freight, is a stanch little boat, and as comfortable as any steamer in the world. When she was built the despised passenger was considered. The staterooms are large, and the dining-room is on the upper deck, which is a boon to the seasick. There is always a great quantity of freight, and while it is being unloaded, passengers have an opportunity to go ashore. It is historic ground, every inch of it, and one only regrets that there are not weeks instead of days to give to exploration. At the dock...

Book Ni  ihau Place Names

  • Release : 2023-10-31
  • ISBN : 0824896319
  • Pages : 465 pages

Download or read book Ni ihau Place Names written by John R. K. Clark and published by University of Hawaii Press. This book was released on 2023-10-31 with total page 465 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story of Ni‘ihau has been told many times by many people, but Ni‘ihau Place Names adds new information to the island’s history from a unique source: Hawaiian-language newspapers. From 1834 to 1948, approximately 125,000 pages of Native Hawaiian expression were printed in more than 100 different newspapers. John R. K. Clark has gathered and edited a large collection of invaluable articles that recorded daily life on Niʻihau, events and topics of interest, and the island’s place names. Additionally, Keao NeSmith, a Native Hawaiian of Kaua‘i and an applied linguist, translator, and researcher fluent in ‘ōlelo Hawai‘i, translated each passage into English. Most of these excerpts have not appeared in any other publication. Ni‘ihau is unique in the state of Hawai‘i because it is the only island that is entirely privately owned. In 1864, Kamehameha V, the monarch of the Kingdom of Hawai‘i, sold the island to the Sinclairs, a wealthy immigrant family looking to establish a ranching business. Descendants of the Sinclairs still own the island today. Diverse opinions about the sale of Niʻihau were published in newspapers across the Hawaiian Islands, and this book traces the development and aftershocks of that historic event. Ni‘ihau Place Names contains over thirty kanikau (dirges, poetic chants) written and published from 1845 to 1931 to honor deceased Niʻihau residents. These compositions of deep emotion are treasuries of language, history, genealogy, cultural knowledge, and especially place names. Another important contribution in this volume is the identification of ‘ōlelo no‘eau (proverbs and poetical sayings) with demonstrations of their use in everyday conversation. The book is divided into two main sections. “Ni‘ihau Place Names” is an alphabetical list of prominent place names on the island, accompanied by relevant passages in Hawaiian and their English translations. The list also includes Lehua, the small island near the northwest tip of Ni‘ihau. “Ni‘ihau History” is an additional collection of articles that includes many lesser-known place names and elucidates other topics deemed worthy by reporters and contributors of the time. Following the main text, readers will find helpful indexes of general terms, place names, and personal names.
