Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Journal of American Folk-Lore, 1911, Vol. 23 The great bulk of our recorded myths, however, were evidently taken in good faith by those who repeated them, and constitute myths in the proper sense of that term. Nevertheless, from our present-day, more comprehensive, scientific standpoint, we know that the major part of these tales records, not objective fact, but subjective belief the popu lar conception Of what ought to have happened, the sense Of poetic jus tice as it existed in the tribe from which it was Obtained. It is true that many such myths, particularly those relating the origin of tribes or families, contain references to real historic events, and hints from which still others may be inferred. Among such references I may cite the north ward migration Oi part Of the Tlingit Indians of Alaska, the movement of the Tsimshian to the coast, of most Of the trans-mississippi Siouan tribes from the east, and Of the Muskhogean tribes the Choctaw, Chickasaw, Creeks, and their allies from the west. Such, however, are very meagre, and appear only as occasional flashes of objective reality through a subjective haze.

This book was released on 2017-05-19 with total page 712 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Journal of American Folk-Lore, 1896, Vol. 9 These considerations lead me to the following conclusion, upon which I desire to lay stress. The analysis of one definite mythology of North America shows that in it are embodied elements from all over the continent, the greater number belonging to neighboring districts, while many others belong to distant areas, or, in other words, that dissemination of tales has taken place all over the conti nent. In most cases, we can discover the channels through which the tale flowed, and we recognize that in each and every mythology of North America we must expect to find numerous foreign elements. And this leads us to the conclusion that similarities of culture on our continent are always more likely to be due to diffusion than to inde pendent development. When we turn to the Old World, we know that there also diffusion has taken place through the whole area from western Europe to the islands of Japan, and from Indonesia to Siberia, and to northern and eastern Africa. In the light of the similarities of inventions and of myths, we must even extend this area along the North Pacific coast of America as far south as Colum bia River. These are facts that cannot be disputed. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2018-01-14 with total page 460 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Journal of American Folk-Lore, 1909, Vol. 22 With the Eastern group there is almost as slight an agreement in this class of incidents as in the connected cycle. Four incidents only are found to agree, the hoodwinked dancers, rolling rock, visit to the culture-hero, and bungling host. The latter, at least, is of such very wide distribution that its importance in this case may be regarded as slight. An extensive comparison of the incidents found among the Algonkins here described, with those of other tribes, such as those in the Plains, the Southwest, or the Pacific Coast, has not been made, but a few general statements may be made. The connected cycle of incidents seems to be quite clearly typical of the tribes living near the Great Lakes. We find the greater part of it among the Blackfeet, although lacking among the Arapaho and Cheyenne, showing either the longer residence of these latter tribes in the Plains, or their greater impressibility to the mythology of the Plains type. A portion appears among the Siouan tribes, where it occurs in the Iowa and Omaha. The other disconnected tales of the culture-hero cannot, however, be regarded as very distinctive. Many of the incidents, such as the bungling host, are of very wide distribution over the whole continent; and others, although not so widely spread, still are found among a large number of tribes outside this area.

In other words, conclusions based on twenty-six separate mythologies quite bear out those based on Eskimo alone.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Journal of American Folk-Lore, 1894, Vol. 7 Finally, about the middle of the present century, the majority of the Wyandots, on both sides of the Detroit River, decided to remove to the southwest, under the auspices of the American government. There in the Indian Territory, and, singularly enough, on a tract directly adjoining the abode of an emigrant band of their ancient enemies, the Senecas, they have found what they may well hope to be a final refuge. It is interesting to know, as an evidence of their strongly conservative character, that, after so many wanderings and vicissitudes, they retain their ancient civic polity with so much vigor that Major Powell has been enabled, in a Study of Wyandot Gov ernment, to reveal fully this remarkable system, and to clear up many mysteries which the intelligent and well-educated Franciscan and Jesuit missionaries, living in the Huron towns nearly three centuries ago, did not fully comprehend.

It may be that the minds of different races show differences of organization; that is to say, the laws of mental activity may not be the same for all minds. But it may also be that the organization of mind is practically identical among all races of man; that mental activity follows the same laws every where, but that its manifestations depend upon the character of individual experience that is subjected to the action of these laws.
