Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Indian Legends Retold The first Indian legends, repeated by the fireside to children, deal with the animals humanized, their gifts and their weaknesses, in such a way as to be a lesson to the young. Our view of the creation allows a soul to all living creatures, and rocks and trees are reverenced as sharers in the divine. Beyond their simplicity and realism there is always the unexplained, the background of mystery and spirituality. These animal fables serve as an introduction to more complicated stories with human actors, which almost always have their hidden moral and are accepted by our people as guides to life.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Indian Legends of Early Days In writing these poems of the Indians' legends, the writer had in mind the saving of their "Folk Lore," sayings which have proved to be very accurate, as any one can know who cares to watch and investigate their signs and sayings. As the centuries pass, and merge into the ever present now, the past like the swirling streak of white in the wake of a vessel, grows dim and full of mystery as the years speed by. Still to the deep thinker, it is a chart, or log book, (when once it is solved,) full of instructions, to guide them away from the reefs and shoals, that other lives have found along the narrow straits of life's sea. The joys of the past are joys of the present, the sorrows, the voices of prophets, warning of danger. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Manabozho, the Great White Rabbit: And Other Indian Stories To-day people are thinking as they never did before of how priceless are the Spirit and the ancient soil of any nation. Perhaps there could be no more fitting time to bring to young children some thing Of the Spirit of the primitive, fettered, but noble race that held our wide lands before they came to be ours. We teach school children myths that are Grecian and Roman, Celtic and Slavic; it is also important that they Should absorb something of the myths of the North American Indians. The average child thinks of his predecessors on this continent with superiority, possibly with a touch of contempt, as savages. He knows that their civilization was meager, that they were hunters rather than agriculturists, were ignorant of the serene arts that help a race to grow, just as prowess in warfare has SO far always helped to keep a race in possession of its own land. He knows that the Indians were not builders nor musicians nor poets nor painters except in the crudest fashion; that their boats were of the Simplest, their transportation facilities negligible, their commerce quite lacking; that they had no cows, and practically no vegetables except corn.

Book Synopsis Tales of the Sun by : Mrs. Howard Kingscote
Download or read book Tales of the Sun written by Mrs. Howard Kingscote and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tales of the Sun, Or Folklore of Southern Indian is a collection of twenty-six classic Indian fables as told to author Georgiania Kingscote. This collection marks the first time many of these tales were ever published, and certainly the first time they were published in English. With the assistance of co-author Pandit Natesa Sastri, Kingscote makes these fables accessible to a western audience for the first time. While these stories will be new to most readers, there is a thread of familiarity that runs through each tale presented in this collection. For while these tales were born and developed in India, they include the universal themes that make up all good stories: good versus evil, love versus hate, life versus death. In her introduction, author Kingscote does note one peculiarity, "namely, that craft and cunning are more generally rewarded than virtue, and stupidity condemned. This is the national characteristic." The collection of stories included in Tales of the Sun are mostly entertaining. Standouts include The Soothsayer's Son, The Lost Camel, and The Beggar and the Five Muffins. While not every tale is a hit, and the lessons of some can seem outdated to the modern reader, Kingscote has been largely successful in her presentation of illuminating fables from Indian culture. Any lover of children's fables will enjoy this collection. It provides the reader with the rare opportunity to read new stories that will seem comfortably familiar. The Tales of the Sun, Or Folklore of Southern Indian is recommended reading. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Old Crow and His Friends: Animal Adventures Based Upon Indian Myths The Indians were fond of stories. All around them lived the wild creatures of the woods and fields, and many of their stories were about them. On one side of the tepee fire would sit the tall, black-eyed Indian story-teller, lifting his long arm now and then, as he told stories of Rabbit. Long legs and Big ears these red skinned people called Rabbit, and all the little Indian children loved to hear stories about him. For Rabbit was the leader in all the mischief, the Indians said. The north wind, on a cold night, some times shook the frail tepees. He rattled at the entrance flap, and howled down the smoke hole. So they told stories about him, too. And in the spring, when it thundered, they knew all about the Thunder Birds, because the story-teller had told them.

Book Synopsis Taytay's Tales by : Elizabeth Willis Dehuff
Download or read book Taytay's Tales written by Elizabeth Willis Dehuff and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-25 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Taytay's Tales: Collected and Retold As is always true with stories that are passed on orally from one generation to another, these folk tales must have been somewhat changed in the relating; but judging from the accuracy of detail insisted upon when they were told to me, I believe that the change has been very slight. To what ex tent, if any, they have been influenced by the folk lore of other countries and races, or the Indian tales have influenced those of other races, I do not know. There is a marked similarity between Little Red Riding Hood and juanita, Marianita, the Cat and the Bear, and also between Uncle Remus's Tar Baby and The Gum Baby; but the Indian relaters insist that these two tales were told to them by their grandfathers, and they were already then very old when my grandfather heard them. It is interesting to compare the stories of the differ ent pueblos, where the Indians have intermarried among themselves for so many generations that each pueblo is a distinct world unto itself. In Sehat chen, a book of myths collected from the Laguna Pueblo by John M. Gunn, the story The Coyote and the Horned Toad is almost identical with The F ox and the Lizard, which was also gotten from the Laguna Pueblo, but told by a different narrator.
