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.

Download or read book Indian Stories (Classic Reprint) written by Cicero Newell and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-06-11 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Indian Stories Many years ago I lived among the Indians and knew them well. They were very different from the Indians of to-day. It would be hard now to find any Indians who are as close to the original traditions as were those old friends of mine. I want to give the boys and girls of to-day a chance to see the Indian as I saw him, and to know how he lived and what he thought. It is a pleasure to tell this story; for I came to love the Indian, and I had great respect for him and for his manner of life. When I first lived among the Dakotas, they were still strongly prejudiced in favor of the old ways, tradi tions and customs. They looked back-with regret upon earlier times, when they lived, unmolested, the wild, free life of the forests. They said that their ancestors were better men than they, because their ancestors lived closer to the Great Spirit, by whom the actions of all Indians were guided. I give the stories as they were told to me by old men who knew and loved the old-time ways, and who wanted to give me the real facts because they saw that I respected their customs and believed in them. In these stories I share with the boys and girls of to-day, who can never know the old-fashioned Indians, my recollections of a busy and happy life among them, at a time when they had not unlearned all the old customs.

Book Synopsis Indian Legends of Minnesota (Classic Reprint) by : Cordenio A. Severance
Download or read book Indian Legends of Minnesota (Classic Reprint) written by Cordenio A. Severance and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-23 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Indian Legends of Minnesota IN presenting to the public this volume the compiler wishes to disown any attempt at a complete collection of Indian legends; both her knowledge Of archaeology, and the time allowed for the completion of the work are inadequate to such an achievement. She has attempted to gather the more noticeable legends already in verse in order to stimulate interest in the scenery and romance of her State. From its name - Minnesota - to its floral emblem - the moccasin flower - the State everywhere bears the impress Of former occupation. About every lake, forest, and valley clings the aroma of romance in the form Of name or legend of the vanished Red Man. The indistinct memory Of his loves, wars, and adventures is growing rapidly fainter, until even the story-teller himself is confused as to the rela tion between event and locality. It has therefore seemed wise to link indissolubly scene and incident, that the poetry of those who have here lived and loved may not be completely displaced by the prosaic commerce of the white man.
