Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Conversion of the Maoris Profoundly convinced, by what I have seen and learned while in New Zealand of the tri umph of the gospel of Christ, in the conversion of the Maoris from cannibalism to Christianity, that it is a stronger and more cogent argument for the power of the gospel than any statement I have ever read in apologetic books; and also quickened by the hope that this brief story of the wonderful conversion of these cannibals may convince others of the living power of modern missions, and hasten the coming of our Lord, I now Offer this book to all who long for the conversion of the world.

Download or read book Maori English Tutor and Vade Mecum Classic Reprint written by Henry M. Stowell and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-06-26 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Maori-English Tutor and Vade Mecum The aim of the Author has been to present a succession of genuine examples of Maori, beginning with the simplest expressions and passing along by gradual stages to the most complex; to show the real simplicity of the tongue, its scope, and at the same time its purity; which can be better illustrated by one example than by many words. In English we would say -having mused awhile with the object of stirring up the fountain of speech, the speaker rises, and with his honeyed tongue and well modulated voice begins an oration. Then is heard the expressive whisper, the full tones of animated vigour, and those more tender and pathetic, the apt quotation, pointed illustration and old-time proverb. From the nature of his discourse it would almost seem that he had conversed with the gods of the sky, and that they had revealed to him the original plan of the creation of the world, and its evolution from darkness to light, when the history of man begins. The rapt attention of the listeners gives silent testimony to their appreciation of his eloquence. Here, it will be observed, the noun speech is not repeated in the subsequent clauses, but is represented by various substitutes - the English language being so largely made up from borrowed sources.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Defenders of New Zealand: Being a Short Biography of Colonists Who Distinguished Themselves in Upholding Her Majesty's Supremacy in These Islands NO one can doubt the mental capacity of the Maori, and had it been possible to educate them and inculcate habits Of sustained industry, they might by this time have altogether cast aside their savage habits and associations. It )8 true the missionaries have effected much good, but the unfortunate divisions amongst ourselves have not only prevented the gradually-awakening mind of the Maori from receiving fixed and decided principles, but have nearly rendered it impossible to convert any heathen nation to Christianity.

His face is intricately tattooed. He stands for a moment gazing back in direction from which he has come, then turns sharply to slave. Chief: What have you seen? Slave: Nothing, 0 Te Rangi.

Download or read book Te H hi Mihinare The M ori Anglican Church written by Hirini Kaa and published by Bridget Williams Books. This book was released on 2020-09-12 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The arrival of the Anglican Church with its claims to religious power was soon followed by British imperial claims to temporal power. Political, legal, economic and social institutions were designed to be the bastions of control across the British Empire. However, they were also places of contestation and engagement at a local and national level, and this was true of New Zealand. Māori culture was constantly capable of adaptation in the face of changing contexts. This ground-breaking book explores the emergence of Te Hāhi Mihinare – the Māori Anglican Church. Anglicanism, brought to New Zealand by English missionaries in 1814, was made widely known by Māori evangelists, as iwi adapted the religion to make it their own. The ways in which Mihinare (Māori Anglicans) engaged with the settler Anglican Church in New Zealand and created their own unique Church casts light on the broader question of how Māori interacted with and transformed European culture and institutions. Hirini Kaa vividly describes the quest for a Māori Anglican bishop, the translation into te reo of the prayer book, and the development of a distinctive Māori Anglican ministry for today’s world. Te Hāhi Mihinare uncovers a rich history that enhances our understanding of New Zealand’s past.

Download or read book Accessing the Classics written by La Vergne Rosow and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2005-12-30 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Help readers improve reading skills while stimulating their appreciation and increasing their understanding of great literature. Using a scaffolding approach, this guide leads readers from simple and engaging reads to more challenging texts, and simultaneously cultivates their interest and skills. An invaluable resource for middle and high school, ABE and ESL educators, as well as for readers' advisors. All readers—even those still learning to speak English—can enjoy the delights and benefits of great literature with the help of this motivational and practical book guide. Rosow takes you on a journey through the history of Western literature, beginning with ancient myths and moving to medieval tales and classics of the Renaissance, Romantic Movement, and Modernism. Along the way, she shows you how to give readers easy access to some of the best literature of all time. Scores of collections focus on such ancient and enduring stories as Gilgamesh, Beowulf, the tales of Chaucer; historical masterpieces of William Shakespeare, Jane Austen, Edgar Allan Poe, Charles Dickens; and stellar names of more recent times, such as Virginia Woolf, John Steinbeck, Ernest Hemingway, and J.R.R. Tolkien. Each carefully selected collection lists an assortment of titles, ranging in reading level and arranged progressively from simple renditions, such as picture book re-tellings, through more advanced selections and readings where audio versions and simpler formatting support the reader, and on to the most challenging reads. Author profiles and narrative, as well as detailed descriptions of each title provide further insights into the story lines and features of the books; while building a scaffold of reading experience and knowledge to help readers better understand the texts. For example, the Mark Twain collection begins with a brief biographical sketch of the author, followed by descriptions of two illustrated books about the author and two readers' theatre skits based on his work. A collection of Twain's short stories is recommended next, and then several illustrated versions of his novels, and an illustrated edition of Twain's memoir, Life on the Mississippi, which is supported by an audiotape version. Each recommended title is rated as start here, next read, support here, or challenging read; and related reads, and audio and video versions are listed when appropriate. The author also notes author and student favorites, titles with exceptional illustrations, and other features of interest. Focus is on authors and titles of the Western canon that are generally lu2768 le in library collections. Because some of the titles cited are older editions, this is a valuable collection development tool in libraries; as well as an essential resource for readers' advisors, Adult Basic Education, and English as Second Language educators, and young adult educators and librarians. Young adult and adult or Grades 9 and up.
Download or read book Hauhau written by Paul Clark and published by Auckland University Press. This book was released on 2013-11-01 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To most New Zealanders, the word 'Hauhau' conjures up a picture of bloodthirsty fanaticism. This book, the definitive study of the Pai Marire or 'Hauhau' M&āori movement in the 1860s, presents a different view. Pai Marire is shown as being a search for ways of meeting European settlement and domination, and of using European skills and literacy, on M&āori terms and without compromising M&āori identity. Sources include the Ua Rongopai notebook, which contains a record of the words of Te Ua Haum&ēne, the prophet of Pai Marire, himself.
