Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Brethren's Encyclopedia: Containing the United Counsels and Conclusions of the Brethren, at Their Annual Meetings Beloved brethren IN the lord - It is with the deepest feelings Of gratitude to God, who has been pleased in mercy to spare my unprofitable life, and to enable me, though under severe afflictions, to pass this work through the press thus far. It is also with feelings of deep humility and self' abasement, when I consider the object I had in view originally, namely, to put into the hands of my brethren of the present generation those words of peace and union which had been concluded upon by our beloved brethren of past generations under their own trials and difficulties, for our present and future benefit and instruction; and, on the other hand, perceive my imper fections and shortcomings in a great many ways. It was but a very humble task to be merely the interpreter. Of' sayings of old, and I must confess my aim was a little higher; that is to say, to furnish my dearly beloved brethren, in the Encyclo pedia, a handbook to be consulted on any point or question that: might occur to any conscientious brother in his private life, or to any church in her dealings with individual mem bers, though it had not been presented or decided at a Yearly Council hitherto; but continued ill health prevented much, scrutiny and revision, and so there was left out much which had been intended for insertion, and some few things may have slipped in which ought to have been left out, and for these things he earnestly pleads for indulgence and pardon of the dear reader.

Download or read book Encyclopedia of American Folklife written by Simon J Bronner and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-03-04 with total page 1469 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: American folklife is steeped in world cultures, or invented as new culture, always evolving, yet often practiced as it was created many years or even centuries ago. This fascinating encyclopedia explores the rich and varied cultural traditions of folklife in America - from barn raisings to the Internet, tattoos, and Zydeco - through expressions that include ritual, custom, crafts, architecture, food, clothing, and art. Featuring more than 350 A-Z entries, "Encyclopedia of American Folklife" is wide-ranging and inclusive. Entries cover major cities and urban centers; new and established immigrant groups as well as native Americans; American territories, such as Guam and Samoa; major issues, such as education and intellectual property; and expressions of material culture, such as homes, dress, food, and crafts. This encyclopedia covers notable folklife areas as well as general regional categories. It addresses religious groups (reflecting diversity within groups such as the Amish and the Jews), age groups (both old age and youth gangs), and contemporary folk groups (skateboarders and psychobillies) - placing all of them in the vivid tapestry of folklife in America. In addition, this resource offers useful insights on folklife concepts through entries such as "community and group" and "tradition and culture." The set also features complete indexes in each volume, as well as a bibliography for further research.
