Download or read book Ng Tau Rere written by and published by Raupo. This book was released on 2003 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Nga Tau Rere, David Simmons introduces the reader to 61 ancient Maori poems of forms that are familiar and not so familiar. For example, there are tangi (laments) and haka taua (war dance) and, less well-known, whakaaraara (watch-cries). The poems have been selected from Sir George Grey's Ko Nga Moteatea me Nga Hairara o Nga Maori, which is a collection of works gathered and recorded by Grey and published in 1853. Every poem tells a story and is a record of Maori history. The author has provided English translations for each poem, as well as sourcing information about the subject matter of the poems and providing extensive notes. The introductory notes explain how Maori poetry is composed, and identifies elements of construction that provide a common thread throughout its many forms. This book is an excellent resource for those who wish to appreciate the beauty of Maori poetry and those who wish to study its form, its meaning and the contribution the art form makes to Maori society and culture.

Download or read book Maori Oral Tradition written by Jane McRae and published by Auckland University Press. This book was released on 2017-03-20 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Maori oral tradition is the rich, poetic record of the past handed down by voice over generations through whakapapa, whakatauki, korero and waiata. In genealogies and sayings, histories, stories and songs, Maori tell of ‘te ao tawhito' or the old world: the gods, the migration of the Polynesian ancestors from Hawaiki and life here in Aotearoa. A voice from the past, today this remarkable record underpins the speeches, songs and prayers performed on marae and the teaching of tribal genealogies and histories. Indeed, the oral tradition underpins Maori culture itself. This book introduces readers to the distinctive oral style and language of the traditional compositions, acknowledges the skills of the composers of old and explores the meaning of their striking imagery and figurative language. And it shows how nga korero tuku iho – the inherited words – can be a deep well of knowledge about the way of life, wisdom and thinking of the Maori ancestors.
Download or read book Waiata written by and published by Raupo. This book was released on 1991 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In waiata our forebears spoke their hearts - in grief and celebration. For many hundreds of years this great oral tradition of song flourished in Aotearoa. During the second half of the nineteenth century, in times of rapid change, maori scholars recorded for the future the words of thousands of waiata. In this anthology, Margaret Orbell places waiata of the nineteenth century in their social and political setting, conveying the poets' responses to their people's trauma. There is a fascinating richness of detail here about traditional Maori life, with insights into the lives of ordinary people as well as into tribal relations and the interaction between Maori and Pakeha.
