This book was released on 2016-07-23 with total page 524 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Reports of the Cambridge Anthropological Expedition to Torres Straits, 1912, Vol. 4: Arts and Crafts The present volume deals with the arts of life in Torres Straits, including those actions and objects which are connected with its material and aesthetic aspects. The social and magico-religious Observances have been fully treated in Volumes V. And VI., and the objects (or artifacts as it is convenient to term them) relating to the various ceremonies have been described in their appropriate places. In order however to render more complete the survey of the material life of the Islanders, these artifacts have sometimes been referred to in the present volume, more particularly when the objects in question are also worn or employed on other than ceremonial occasions. As I have mentioned elsewhere, the Islanders have such close relations with the neighbouring inhabitants of New Guinea (including the islands of the Fly River delta) that it has often been impossible to distinguish between. Their several artifacts: I have not hesitated then to describe many objects which I know to have been imported from New Guinea'. In only a few instances, such for example as the section on Houses, is reference made to Papuan artifacts which do not occur on the islands.

This book was released on 2018-02-04 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Reports of the Cambridge Anthropological Expedition to Torres Straits Perhaps a few words are necessary to explain why we visited a district apparently so insignificant as Torres Straits. As explained above, I had a good deal of unpublished material on the ethnography of the people and it would naturally take less time to gain a good insight into the life of a people about whom a fair amount was known than to begin afresh on a new people. From what I knew of my old friends and acquaintances I was sure that we could at once get to work instead of having to lose more or less time while entering into friendly relations with a people who, after all, might prove to be suspicious and refractory. Our experience fully justified the good impression I had formed of the Willingness of the Torres Straits islanders to impart information and to render personal assistance. For the special work we had to do it was necessary to visit a people who were amenable and with whom communication was easy; but, on the other hand, who were not far removed from their primitive past. This peculiar combination was found in these people. This region has some ethnological importance as it is on the frontier between two large land areas inhabited respectively by Papuans and Australians, and it was a matter of some interest to determine whether any mixture had taken place there and also to endeavour to find out if any traces could be found in the islands or on the adjacent coast of New Guinea of a migration of the Australian stock from North to South. The islanders are as a matter of fact distinctly Papuan. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Collaborative Ethnomusicology  New Approaches to Music Research between Indigenous and Non Indigenous Australians

Download or read book Collaborative Ethnomusicology New Approaches to Music Research between Indigenous and Non Indigenous Australians written by Katelyn Barney and published by Lyrebird Press lyrebirdpress.music.unimelb.edu.au. This book was released on 2014-12-01 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Collaborative Ethnomusicology explores the processes, benefits and challenges of collaborative ethnomusicological research between Indigenous and non-Indigenous people in Australia. While there are many examples of research and recordings that demonstrate close collaboration between Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians, this volume is the first to focus on the ways these processes allow Indigenous and non-Indigenous music researchers to work together and learn from each other. Drawing on case studies from across Australia, each chapter brings significant insights into the many positives and some of the discomforts in collaborative spaces, highlighting the ongoing dialogue needed in order to improve relationships between Indigenous and non-Indigenous people and inform the future of ethnomusicological research in Australia.
