Book The Journal of American Folk Lore  1911  Vol  23  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Journal of American Folk Lore 1911 Vol 23 Classic Reprint written by American Folklore Society and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-02 with total page 512 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. 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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sultan to Sultan: Adventures Among the Masai and Other Tribes of East Africa From the public I crave indulgence for all shortcomings, with the assurance that under the crushing weight of a supreme sorrow which has overtaken me whilst Sultan to Sultan has been in press, it has been with an aching heart I have com pleted the work, endeavoring with fortitude to do my best to make my readers better acquainted with the possibilities of the natural primitives whom I am proud to call my friends and be called friend by, and to demonstrate that if a woman could journey a thousand and more miles in East Africa, among some ho'stile tribes, unattended by other than Zanzibaris mer cenaries, without bloodshed, the extreme measures employed by some would-be colonizers is unnecessary, atrocious, and with out the pale of humanity. To the indefatigable efforts of my publishers, especiallyto Mr. H. H. Boyce, who, with sympa thy and consideration, has personally spared me the countless detail of the work; to the artists who have entered into the spirit of the illustrations, and actually reproduced the photo graphs and the curios, waiving artistic desire to make alter ations; to the printers, and the Victorians of Manchester, Englandhfor the sketch map of my route; and finally to friends who have seen me bravely through, I owe un.

Book The Tribes of Northern and Central Kordofan  Classic Reprint

This book was released on 2017-12-21 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Tribes of Northern and Central Kordofan My aim has been to describe, however imperfect may be the result, the antecedents of the tribes at present inhabiting the province in so far as any information upon the subject can be gleaned from extraneous sources or from current native tradition. At the same time, while as a general rule planning to omit minute descriptions of people and places, and avoiding discus sion of current questions, whether political or commercial, I have found it advisable to make occasional exceptions where under standing of the conditions of the past and the links connecting it with the present would have been impaired by such unnecessary limitation in the scope of the work. In so far as the work purports to deal with some aspects of ethnology, I must plead in excuse for its manifold shortcomings that I am a mere tyro with no expert knowledge of the science whatever.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Indian Tribes of Guiana: Their Condition and Habits; With Researches Into Their Past History, Superstitions, Legends, Antiquities, Languages, &C The Aborigines of Guiana, who form the chief subject of the following pages, are of no political impmtance. The country is indeed a good land and a large; but civilized man has settled on its coast, and the Indian races, who still possess the vast regions of the interior, are very scanty in number. Scattered over tracts as wide as some populous countries in Europe are fewer souls than are usually sent into eternity by civilized nations in the course of one campaign.

Download or read book We Will Always Be Here written by Bates, Denise E and published by University Press of Florida. This book was released on 2016-05-17 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “The Southeastern Indian people found their voices in this work. They are alive and well—still on their land!”—Hiram F. Gregory, coauthor of The Historic Indian Tribes of Louisiana: From 1542 to the Present “This collection fills a major void in our understanding of recent southern history by offering a wide-ranging selection of southern Indians a chance to speak for themselves, unfiltered, as they strike at the heart of identity: Indian identity, southern identity, and, ultimately, American identity.”—Greg O’Brien, editor of Pre-removal Choctaw History: Exploring New Paths The history of Native Americans in the U.S. South is a turbulent one, rife with conflict and inequality. Since the arrival of Spanish conquistadors in the fifteenth century, Native peoples have struggled to maintain their land, cultures, and ways of life. In We Will Always Be Here, contemporary tribal leaders, educators, and activists speak about their own experiences fighting for Indian identity, self-determination, cultural survival, and community development. This valuable collection portrays the lives of today’s Southern Indians in their own words. Reflecting on such issues as poverty, education, racism, cultural preservation, and tribal sovereignty, the contributors to this volume offer a glimpse into the historical struggles of southern Native peoples, examine their present-day efforts, and share their hopes for the future. They also share examples of cultural practices that have either endured or been revitalized. In a country that still faces challenges to civil rights and misconceptions about Indian identity and tribal sovereignty, this timely book builds a deeper understanding of modern Native peoples within a region where they are often overlooked.
