Download or read book The Ghostland Ritual written by Robert B. Repenning and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2016-12-13 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Ghostland Ritual is a poem sequence, a tapestry of sorts, that is part confession, part memoir, part lament, part prayer, part meditation, part exorcism. It veers into hidden territories not always given light. Replete with contradictions, repetitions, exultations, degradations, omissions, despair, hope, clichés; the Ghostland Ritual is an invitation into an experience. These cantos belong to a process, a personal ritual of expression intended to touch the sacred precincts of the heart, mind and soul, and to strip away the powers that the corrupting, caustic experience of evil, in the form of war, continuously unleashes.

Download or read book Lakota Belief and Ritual written by James R. Walker and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 1980-01-01 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The real value of Lakota Belief and Ritual is that it provides raw narratives without any pretension of synthesis or analysis, as well as insightful biographical information on the man who contributed more than any other individual to our understanding of early Oglala ritual and belief." Plains Anthropologist"In the writing of Indian history, historians and other scholars seldom have the opportunity to look at the past through 'native eyes' or to immerse themselves in documents created by Indians. For the Oglala and some of the other divisions of the Lakota, the Walker materials provide this kind of experience in fascinating and rich detail during an important transition period in their history." Minnesota History"This collection of documents is especially remarkable because it preserves individual variations of traditional wisdom from a whole generation of highly developed wicasa wakan (holy men). . . . Lakota Belief and Ritual is a wasicun (container of power) that can make traditional Lakota wisdom assume new life." American Indian Quarterly"A work of prime importance. . . . its publication represents a major addition to our knowledge of the Lakotas' way of life" Journal of American FolkloreRaymond J. DeMallie, director of the American Indian Studies Research Institute and a professor of anthropology at Indiana University, is the editor of James R. Walker's Lakota Society (1982) and of The Sixth Grandfather: Black Elk's Teachings Given to John G. Neihardt (1984, a Bison Book), both published by the University of Nebraska Press. Elaine A.

Download or read book Shamanic Healing and Ritual Drama written by Åke Hultkrantz and published by Crossroad Publishing. This book was released on 1992 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this pioneering work one of the world's leading experts on Native American traditions offers a detailed survey of Native American practices and beliefs regarding health, medicine, and religion. In contrast to the sharp Euro-American division between medicine and religion, Native American medical beliefs and practices can only be assessed, says the author, in their relation to their religious ideas. Spanning the full length and breadth of Native North American cultural areas, from the Northeast to the Southwest, the Southeast to the Northwest, the book offers "thick" descriptions of traditional Native American medical and religious beliefs and practices, demonstrating that for Native Americans medicine and religion are two sides of the same coin: a coherent and holistic system in which supernaturalism acts as a motor in healing.

Download or read book Twana Narratives written by William Welcome Elmendorf and published by UBC Press. This book was released on 1993 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Twana speech community of Coast Salish Indians lived, before 1860, in nine villages in western Washington. Twana Narratives presents first-person, insider accounts of Twana history, society, and religion, as told by natives Frank and Henry Allen to anthropologist William Elmendorf between 1934 and 1940. The Allens were born in the Hood Canal area in the mid-nineteenth century and were fluent in both English and Twana. The vigorous language of the eighty narratives, while predominantly in English, is freely interspersed with key native terms denoting personal names, genealogical connections, and spirit powers and rituals. The texts, unique for the region and the period, reveal a strong sense of the local diversity within the larger Salish area and of the intricate interrelationships between village communities.
