Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Long before the Pilgrims set foot on Plymouth Rock, even before Christopher Columbus discovered America, the land we call North America was already the home of millions of people. Comprised of numerous different tribes, the descendants of these earliest American settlers live throughout the United States today. The cultures of the tribes are as different as the people themselves. As we move through the 21st century, large parts of these cultures—including entire languages—are at risk of being lost forever. Only by preserving them today can we ensure that these customs and traditions will remain alive for future Native American generations and other Americans alike.

Book Synopsis Heritage Conservation in the United States by : John H. Sprinkle, Jr.
Download or read book Heritage Conservation in the United States written by John H. Sprinkle, Jr. and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-05-25 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Heritage Conservation in the United States begins to trace the growth of the American historic preservation movement over the last 50 years, viewed from the context of the civil rights and environmental movements. The first generation of the New Preservation (1966-1991) was characterized by the establishment of the bureaucratic structures that continue to shape the practice of heritage conservation in the United States. The National Register of Historic Places began with less than a thousand historic properties and grew to over 50,000 listings. Official recognition programs expanded, causing sites that would never have been considered as either significant or physically representative in 1966 now being regularly considered as part of a historic preservation planning process. The book uses the story of how sites associated with African American history came to be officially recognized and valued, and how that process challenged the conventions and criteria that governed American preservation practice. This book is designed for the historic preservation community and students engaged in the study of historic preservation.

Book Synopsis Preserving Your Family Heritage by : Steve Mitchell
Download or read book Preserving Your Family Heritage written by Steve Mitchell and published by . This book was released on 2020-02-06 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We all have a history and a past. Some may try to run from theirs, while others may just never have taken the time to embrace theirs and to learn and grow from it. Who we are is typically shaped by those that have been directly involved in our lives or even by those who have helped to shape the lives of those who have been close to us but who we never met. At some point, usually when we get older, we begin to question and begin to explore where we actually came from and to attempt to learn more about those family and friends who were key players in our family heritage that have impacted what we do and what we believe. Unfortunately for many, when we reach the time when we want to know some basic answers, the very people who have the answers or who could even shed some basic light on the questions are no longer around or are no longer capable of remembering many of those important memories. Now is the time to take the necessary steps to help preserve part of your family heritage. Old pictures are just not enough. When you are no longer around pictures of your past will probably mean nothing to most family members. Even if they recognized you in the picture, no picture can truly express what you were really like as a person. If you have a close relationship with your family perhaps you have been lucky enough to have opportunities to talk about your life with them. More often than not, most families never talk about personal things at all or perhaps only on some rare occasions. We all have done different things in our lives. Yes, some of the things you have done you think may not really be of interest to others in your family. On the other hand, perhaps you don't really know what your family and friends would be interested in learning about your life. Later on I will present some topics that you may want to cover as you document your journey. The nice thing is there is no right or wrong when doing this project. You just need to follow your heart. What would you like to talk about assuming someone was willing to listen? This could be where you begin. For those of you who have elderly parents or grandparents you may want to honor them and benefit yourself and your family by focusing on their lives as you build a foundation for your personal journey. This book is designed to help you to begin to document important parts of your family history that can go way beyond where a person was born. As you begin your journey, in your own words or in the words of those you honor by showing enough interest in their lives to learn more, the "road" you follow can be as broad or narrow as you choose to make it. The book is 100 8x10 pages, with 92 pages available for your input. There are more than 140 questions to consider as you begin to enter your personal information. We make EZ Life Trackers to help Track and Record many of the important things in life. Preserving Your Family Heritage is just one of the many EZ Life Trackers that we have created and will create in the future. To learn more about our EZ Life Trackers please visit: ezlifetrackers.com.
Book Synopsis Preserving Dance Across Time and Space by : Lynn Matluck Brooks
Download or read book Preserving Dance Across Time and Space written by Lynn Matluck Brooks and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-05-06 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dance is the art least susceptible to preservation since its embodied, kinaesthetic nature has proven difficult to capture in notation and even in still or moving images. However, frameworks have been established and guidance made available for keeping dances, performances, and choreographers’ legacies alive so that the dancers of today and tomorrow can experience and learn from the dances and dancers of the past. In this volume, a range of voices address the issue of dance preservation through memory, artistic choice, interpretation, imagery and notation, as well as looking at relevant archives, legal structures, documentation and artefacts. The intertwining of dance preservation and creativity is a core theme discussed throughout this text, pointing to the essential continuity of dance history and dance innovation. The demands of preservation stretch across time, geographies, institutions and interpersonal connections, and this book focuses on the fascinating web that supports the fragile yet urgent effort to sustain our dancing heritage. The articles in this book were originally published in the journal Dance Chronicle: Studies in Dance and the Related Arts.
Download or read book Curated Decay written by Caitlin DeSilvey and published by U of Minnesota Press. This book was released on 2017-02-14 with total page 171 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Transporting readers from derelict homesteads to imperiled harbors, postindustrial ruins to Cold War test sites, Curated Decay presents an unparalleled provocation to conventional thinking on the conservation of cultural heritage. Caitlin DeSilvey proposes rethinking the care of certain vulnerable sites in terms of ecology and entropy, and explains how we must adopt an ethical stance that allows us to collaborate with—rather than defend against—natural processes. Curated Decay chronicles DeSilvey’s travels to places where experiments in curated ruination and creative collapse are under way, or under consideration. It uses case studies from the United States, Europe, and elsewhere to explore how objects and structures produce meaning not only in their preservation and persistence, but also in their decay and disintegration. Through accessible and engaging discussion of specific places and their stories, it traces how cultural memory is generated in encounters with ephemeral artifacts and architectures. An interdisciplinary reframing of the concept of the ruin that combines historical and philosophical depth with attentive storytelling, Curated Decay represents the first attempt to apply new theories of materiality and ecology to the concerns of critical heritage studies.
