Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Acadians of Louisiana and Their Dialect I awoke very early the next 111orni11g, and 011 opening the window of my room I saw a pretty sight: the bayou was just beneath, its waters green with water plants 'and rushes and in the distance, a prairie above which was rising resplendent a September sun. A knock was heard at the door, and answering it I found a little negro girl bringing me a cup of real Creole coffee.

Download or read book In Acadia written by Margaret Avery Johnston and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from In Acadia: The Acadians in Story and Song As has been already stated, the Acadians of Louisiana are a simple and ingenuous people; no romance hovers around them other than that which clusters about the virtuous lives of home-loving cottagers. As a population, though not enterprising, they are industrious; the women Spinning and weaving, the men tilling their farms and herding their cattle. Many of them live upon the bayous opening into the Gulf and are excellent sailors, giving proof of their Norman and Breton ancestry. One of the most pleasing features of their social life is the general amenity and the self-respect of their bearing. They exercise an unostentatious hospitality, and the stranger within their gates is kindly welcomed; but, as French is the only language used among them, the-difference of speech offers an effectual barrier to the outside world. Their French is not, as is erroneously supposed, a rude patoz's, but conforms very closely to the prevailing dialect of Normandy and is very little removed from a good French vernacular. It varies, however, with different localities. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Cajuns and Their Acadian Ancestors

Download or read book Cajuns and Their Acadian Ancestors written by Shane K. Bernard and published by Univ. Press of Mississippi. This book was released on 2010-02-11 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cajuns and Their Acadian Ancestors: A Young Reader's History traces the four-hundred-year history of this distinct American ethnic group. While written in a format comprehensible to junior-high and high-school students, it will prove appealing and informative as well to adult readers seeking a one-volume exploration of these remarkable people and their predecessors. The narrative follows the Cajuns' early ancestors, the Acadians, from seventeenth-century France to Nova Scotia, where they flourished until British soldiers expelled them in a tragic event called Le Grand Dérangement (The Great Upheaval)—an episode regarded by many historians as an instance of ethnic cleansing or genocide. Up to one-half of the Acadian population died from disease, starvation, exposure, or outright violence in the expulsion. Nearly three thousand survivors journeyed through the thirteen American colonies to Spanish-controlled Louisiana. There they resettled, intermarried with members of the local population, and evolved into the Cajun people, who today number over a half-million. Since their arrival in Louisiana, the Cajuns have developed an unmistakable identity and a strong sense of ethnic pride. In recent decades they have contributed their exotic cuisine and accordion-and-fiddle dance music to American popular culture. Cajuns and Their Acadian Ancestors: A Young Reader's History includes numerous images and over a dozen sidebars on topics ranging from Cajun music to Mardi Gras.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Exile of the Acadians: The People of Longfellow S Evangeline Of the many who have read Longfellow's Evangeline with unbounded delight, how few there are who know that the plaintiff, poetic story of Acadia, is but a picture of a real people, illustrating their simple mode of life and their multiple misfortunes. Yet our Nova Scotia once bore that romantic name, and her people were the Acadians of history, romance and song. The story carries us back to that long ago, when, from the frozen sea to tr-3 tropical gulf, this vast country was a nearly unknown wilderness, its mononony being undisturbed save by a few English colonies on the Atlantic shore of what is now the United States, and like settlements by France in Canada, each claiming by assumed right that which belonged to neither, and each fiercely jealous of the acquirements of the other. Thus the two most powerful nations of Europe sought extension of doninion and addition of wealth, while colonists, from various quarters and all classes, endeavored to improve their condition by casting their fortunes in the wilds of the "new world."
