Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Counting-Out Rhymes of Children: Their Antiquity, Origin, and Wide Distribution; A Study in Folk-Lore In this monograph we have undertaken to show that the use of rhymes and doggerels for "counting-out" obtains among children in all countries; that the customs perpetuated in their juvenile games are of great antiquity, and that they originate in the superstitious practices of divination by lots. In forming the collection of counting-out rhymes we have been assisted by many correspondents, as well as by the children themselves who kindly responded to our published appeals; to all of these we give hearty thanks. In the preparation of these pages we have consulted many authorities, some of which are named below; to all of them due credit is given. Examples of counting-out rhymes in a still greater number of languages could undoubtedly be gathered by extending the correspondence of the author, and the best way to accomplish this seemed to be by presenting to the public the material already collected. Those interested in folk-lore will confer a great favour upon the author by sending him lists of counting-out rhymes, with information concerning the usages among children. Rhymes in foreign languages not included in the following pages will be especially welcome. Communications addressed to the author, care of the Smithsonian Institution, Washington, U.S.A., will be thankfully received and duly acknowledged.

Download or read book What the Children Said written by Jeanne Pitre Soileau and published by Univ. Press of Mississippi. This book was released on 2021-08-23 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jeanne Pitre Soileau vividly presents children’s voices in What the Children Said: Child Lore of South Louisiana. Including over six hundred handclaps, chants, jokes, jump-rope rhymes, cheers, taunts, and teases, this book takes the reader through a fifty-year history of child speech as it has influenced children’s lives. What the Children Said affirms that children's play in south Louisiana is acquired along a network of summer camps, schoolyards, church gatherings, and sleepovers with friends. When children travel, they obtain new games and rhymes and bring them home. The volume also reveals, in the words of the children themselves, how young people deal with racism and sexism. The children argue and outshout one another, policing their own conversations, stating their own prejudices, and vying with one another for dominion. The first transcript in the book tracks a conversation among three related boys and shows that racism is part of the family interchange. Among second-grade boys and girls at a Catholic school, another transcript presents numerous examples in which boys use insults to dominate a conversation with girls, and girls use giggles and sly comebacks to counter this aggression. Though collected in the areas of New Orleans, Baton Rouge, and Lafayette, Louisiana, this volume shows how south Louisiana child lore is connected to other English-speaking places: England, Scotland, Ireland, Australia, and New Zealand, as well as the rest of the United States.

Download or read book Absentees written by Daniel Heller-Roazen and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2021-03-09 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An intellectually adventurous account of the role of nonpersons that explores their depiction in literature and challenges how they are defined in philosophy, law, and anthropology In thirteen interlocking chapters, Absentees explores the role of the missing in human communities, asking an urgent question: How does a person become a nonperson, whether by disappearance, disenfranchisement, or civil, social, or biological death? Only somebody can become a “nobody,” but, as Daniel Heller-Roazen shows, the ways of being a nonperson are as diverse and complex as they are mysterious and unpredictable. Heller-Roazen treats the variously missing persons of the subtitle in three parts: Vanishings, Lessenings, and Survivals. In each section and with multiple transhistorical and transcultural examples, he challenges the categories that define nonpersons in philosophy, ethics, law, and anthropology. Exclusion, infamy, and stigma; mortuary beliefs and customs; children’s games and state censuses; ghosts and “dead souls” illustrate the lives of those lacking or denied full personhood. In the archives of fiction, Heller-Roazen uncovers figurations of the missing—from Helen of Argos in Troy or Egypt to Hawthorne’s Wakefield, Swift’s Captain Gulliver, Kafka’s undead hunter Gracchus, and Chamisso’s long-lived shadowless Peter Schlemihl. Readers of The Enemy of All and No One’s Ways will find a continuation of those books’ intense intellectual adventures, with unexpected questions and arguments arising every step of the way. In a unique voice, Heller-Roazen’s thought and writing capture the intricacies of the all-too-human absent and absented.
