Book excerpt: Newell Lyon learned the oral tradition from his elders in Maine's Penobscot Nation and was widely considered to be a "raconteur among the Indians." The thirteen stories in this new volume were among those that Lyon recounted to anthropologist Frank Speck, who published them in 1918 as Penobscot Transformer Tales. Transcribed for the first time into current Penobscot orthography and with a new English translation, this instructive and entertaining story cycle focuses on the childhood and coming-of-age of Gluskabe, the tribe's culture hero. Learning from his grandmother Woodchuck, Gluskabe applies lessons that help shape the Wabanaki landscape and bring into balance all the forces affecting human life. These tales offer a window into the language and culture of the Penobscot people in the early twentieth century. In "Still They Remember Me," stories are presented in the Penobscot language and English side-by-side, coupled with illustrations from members of the tribal community. For the first time, these stories are accessible to a young generation of Penobscot language learners and scholars of Native American literatures at all levels, from grade school to graduate school.

Download or read book Will You Still Remember Me written by Josephine White and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2020-08-28 with total page 45 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: IT WAS JUST AFTER THE NEW YEAR and we were playing with the Ouija board my sister bought for Christmas. I heard him ask the board, "When will I die?" Stunned, I personally witnessed the triangle streak across the word "Good-bye" hitting the wall hard on the opposite side of the room. My son would be dead three months later. - This true story is a look into a young mother's search for why she continued to live and breathe. Expecting the sun never to rise again after the sudden death of her sixteen-year-old only son, she hated God for letting him die. Suicidal but staying alive for the sake of her daughter, she attempts to deaden her pain and remorse with alcohol. - Her intense desire to understand life-after-death (is there one?) took her into the shifting foundation of metaphysics spiraling her downward into an uncertain world of acting and New Age/Eastern mysticism. - Is it possible to find peace of mind that stays with you and doesn't go away after you sober up? Is Buddhism the way to understanding and spiritual enlightenment? Will You Still Remember Me? A Story of Redemption will give you hope when you think there is none. This true story of Josephine's conversion experience will keep you heading in the right direction, the only direction that leads to Truth and Eternal Life.

Download or read book Musicophilia written by Oliver Sacks and published by Vintage Canada. This book was released on 2010-02-05 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What goes on in human beings when they make or listen to music? What is it about music, what gives it such peculiar power over us, power delectable and beneficent for the most part, but also capable of uncontrollable and sometimes destructive force? Music has no concepts, it lacks images; it has no power of representation, it has no relation to the world. And yet it is evident in all of us–we tap our feet, we keep time, hum, sing, conduct music, mirror the melodic contours and feelings of what we hear in our movements and expressions. In this book, Oliver Sacks explores the power music wields over us–a power that sometimes we control and at other times don’t. He explores, in his inimitable fashion, how it can provide access to otherwise unreachable emotional states, how it can revivify neurological avenues that have been frozen, evoke memories of earlier, lost events or states or bring those with neurological disorders back to a time when the world was much richer. This is a book that explores, like no other, the myriad dimensions of our experience of and with music.
