Book Synopsis Oo-Ma-Ha-Ta-Wa-Tha and Other Stories by : Susette La Flesche
Download or read book Oo-Ma-Ha-Ta-Wa-Tha and Other Stories written by Susette La Flesche and published by Graphic Arts Books. This book was released on 2021-04-23 with total page 53 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Oo-Ma-Ha-Ta-Wa-Tah and Other Stories (1898) is a work of history and folklore by Fannie Reed Griffen and Susette La Flesche. Written at the end of a century of devastation, marked by the Western advance of American political, industrial, and military forces, Oo-Ma-Ha-Ta-Wa-Tah and Other Stories preserves as much as it can between the bindings of a book the traditions and stories of the Omaha people. “In remembrance of the Omahas, the tribe of Indians after which Omaha city is named, and who, less than fifty years ago, held an uncontested title to the land where Omaha city and the great Trans-Mississippi Exposition is located, this book is dedicated, that the memory of the tribe, its chieftains, its warriors and its maidens might be preserved.” Combining biography, historical documents, and folk tales, Oo-Ma-Ha-Ta-Wa-Tah and Other Stories serves as an invaluable record of a proud people. Beginning with the disastrous broken treaty of 1854, Griffen and La Flesche tell the tragic story of the Omahas through the lives of the chiefs who signed it. Concluding with a sampling of entertaining stories inherited from an oral tradition, Oo-Ma-Ha-Ta-Wa-Tah and Other Stories remains a masterpiece of fiction and nonfiction from two groundbreaking and vastly underappreciated figures in American history. With a beautifully designed cover and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of Susette La Flesche and Fannie Reed Griffen’s Oo-Ma-Ha-Ta-Wa-Tah and Other Stories is a classic work of Native American literature reimagined for modern readers.
Book Synopsis Native American Stories of the Sacred by :
Download or read book Native American Stories of the Sacred written by and published by Turner Publishing Company. This book was released on 2011-06-29 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The wisdom from these stories can become a companion on your own spiritual journey. Native American stories of the sacredare intended for more than entertainment: they are teaching tales containing elegantly simple illustrations of time-honored truths. From tales of Creation to “Why?” stories that help explain the natural world around us, these stories highlight the sacredness of all life and affirm that we are each an integral part of all that is holy. Drawn from tribes across North America, these are careful retellings of traditional stories such as Son of Light’s quest to win back his captured wife from the monstrous Man-Eagle; humble Muskrat’s noble self-sacrifice to establish solid land so other beings might live; Water Spider’s creative solution for retrieving fire for all the animals; and White Buffalo Calf Woman’s profound gift of the sacred pipe to the people. Each of the compelling stories in this collection illustrates principles that can guide you on your own spiritual quest. Now you can experience the wisdom of these teaching tales even if you have no previous knowledge of Native American traditions. SkyLight Illuminations provides insightful yet unobtrusive commentary that explains the cultural and spiritual significance of the seemingly mundane objects found in these stories—tobacco, gambling, even the exploits of mischievous tricksters such as Coyote and Weasel—while gracefully drawing comparisons to Christian, Jewish, Buddhist and Hindu religious traditions, among others. Whatever your spiritual heritage, these Native American stories of the sacred are sure to delight and inspire you with the sacredness of all Creation, and remind you that the earth does not belong to us—we belong to the earth.
