Download or read book The Last Wolf of Scotland written by MacGillivray and published by Pighog. This book was released on 2017-06-30 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 1864. In a Santa Fe gulley, scalped Scots thirteen-year-old Robert McGee lies bleeding to death. The Last Wolf of Scotland is his dream, etched onto the plate of pioneer America, his scalp lock speaking back to him, a hallucination projected in a near-death cinema. This shocking real-life incident is our point of departure into the ritualistic imagination of MacGilivray. In this, her first collection, she dissects the Scottish imaginary and builds it up anew, creating a poetic panorama which stretches from the Highlands to the Wild West.

Book excerpt: ...SIPAPUNI a Hopi word meaning place of emergence, from where we all came! The sacred conch sounds and the Great Vision Serpent appears taking the reader on a magical journey through the phantasmagoric universe of indigenous peoples of the Americas. Through time, space, spirit, architecture and ceremony we examine a new understanding of the ancient city of TeotihuacA n and the Tzolkin and their relationship to the Chaco Domain. How harmonic architecture reveals the knowledge of passive solar technology a thousand years ago among Puebloan peoples We imagine studying Astronomy through the eyes of the ancient stargazers and interpret ancient constellations on the Piedra Del Sol of the Aztecs. We find mysterious astronomical sites in Ohio associated with the largest pyramids in North America. We examine in Louisiana, an immense astronomical site a kilometer and a half in diameter and over 3000 years old. The 12th century Sinagua culture Shaman of Arizona, known as "The Magician" carried a miniature calendar that may have been a proto-type of The Aztec Piedra Del Sol. We briefly look at Thomas Jefferson's studies of Mound Builder Cultures of North America and the theories of his day and today of their western and Olmec origins. A new understanding of Meso-American history enables us to reinterpret physical remains of architecture of North America and their relationship to the cosmos. By using Mayan calendar glyphs we are able to decipher the meaning of ancient Shamanic tools and symbols interned with them We are now able to understand what lineages Southwestern Shaman Kings came from as outlined in the Popol Vuh and their meanings We see the ceremonial ball courts of Meso and North America with different eyes and how this most ancient of team sports is tied into the God's creation story here on earth. .The Great Vision Serpent then disappears as the ceremonial conch sounds, leaving us with the beginning of a new "Old" legacy!

Download or read book Lachlan McGillivray, Indian Trader written by Edward J. Cashin and published by University of Georgia Press. This book was released on 1992-01-01 with total page 430 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lachlan McGillivray knew firsthand of the frontier's natural wealth and strategic importance to England, France, and Spain, because he lived deep within it among his wife's people, the Creeks. Until he returned to his native Scotland in 1782, he witnessed; and often participated in the major events shaping the region--from decisive battles to major treaties and land cessions. He was both a consultant to the leaders of colonial Georgia and South Carolina and their emissary to the great chiefs of the Creeks, Cherokees, Choctaws, and Chickasaws. Cashin discusses the aims and ambitions of the frontier's many interest groups, profiles the figures who catalyzed the power struggles, and explains events from the vantage points of traders and Native Americans. He also offers information about the rise of the southern elite, for in the decade before he left America, McGillivray was a successful planter and slave trader, a popular politician, and a member of the Savannah gentry.

Book excerpt: In 2013 I had the opportunity to visit Preston, England, the site of the last battle in England. During the Jacobite Uprising of 1715, Captain Peter Farquharson had been shot in the knee. He was taken to the White Bull Inn, where it was decided that his leg should be amputated. He requested a glass of brandy and said "Come lads, here is our master's health; though I can do no more, I wish you good success." I walked through the streets trying to imagine the setting 300 years earlier. I found the current version of the White Bull Inn and drank a brandy to the memory of Peter Farquharson, John Farquharson (the Clan Chief), and all the Farquharsons and their Highland Clansmen that took part in the Uprising of 1715. When I returned from my trip, I read as much as I could about this Uprising. Most books barely mention the participation of our clan. I thought it worthwhile to summarize their important role as the 300th anniversary neared. This book is the result.

Download or read book The McGillivray and McIntosh Traders written by Amos J. Wright and published by NewSouth Books. This book was released on 2007-02-28 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Amos Wright unveils exhaustive research following two extended Scottish clans as they made their way across the ocean to the American frontier. Once they arrived, the two families made an impact on the colonials, the British, the French, the Spanish, and the American Indians. Some of the Scots were ambitious traders, some were representatives for the Indians, some were warriors, and one ended up as a chief. This annotated history delves into the harsh and often violent lives of Scottish traders living on the frontier of colonial America.

Book excerpt: The Gaelic Garden of the Dead is three Books of the Dead bound as one. This trilogy comprises an alphabet of trees, ten dream pattern poems and thirty-five death sonnets deconstructed to Mary Queen of Scots. Saturated with the languages of arboreal myth, magic and folklore in Gaelic culture, the first book, The Gaelic Garden of the Dead, is a forest quartet whose letters enunciate the imagery of their own form and function, drawing on the traditional Scots Gaelic alphabet of trees. Among reflex-men and co-walkers are corpse measuring aspen rods, the pine hanging tree and the poison yew. As a meta-narrative of ecological preservation and a comment on ancient language culture, The Gaelic Garden of the Dead is a grove of observation: `Love's eyes are colourless: a motive for moving through underworlds.' A Crisis of Dream, the middle book, is a sequence of ten dream diagrams. Many of the dreams delineated in the second book inform other parts of the trilogy. The third book, In the End Is My Beginning: 35 Destroyed Sonnets to Mary Queen of Scots, consists of thirty-five Petrarchan sonnets for each of the steps Marie Stuart descended to execution. Composed on the anniversary of her death at Fotheringhay, the sonnets were then chewed for the fifteen minutes her lips were said to move after decapitation. Their delicate reconstruction becomes a moving meditation on Mary's brutal demise: `Once, my heart had a skeleton.'
