Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Long before these Cherokee stories were gathered on the page, they lived in spoken memory, carried through firelight, forest paths, mountain places, rushing waters, and the deep mystery of the natural world. Here are tales of the first fire, the making of the world, the coming of corn and game, the origin of death, the return of tobacco, the stars above, the flood below, and the strange beginnings of familiar things. Each story opens a doorway into a world where the land is alive with meaning, and even the smallest feature of nature may carry an ancient memory. Animals speak, trick, boast, race, marry, escape, and outwit one another in stories full of wit, danger, humor, and surprise. Rabbit tangles with Terrapin, Possum, Bear, Wolf, and Otter, while Deer, Wildcat, Turkey, Owl, Buzzard, Eagle, Snake, and many others move through a world where every creature has a place and every odd feature may have a story behind it. Some tales are playful and clever, some are strange and unsettling, and some turn sharply when pride, hunger, fear, or curiosity leads a creature too far. Beyond the animal tales wait giants, enchanted lakes, spirit folk, thunder beings, dangerous monsters, haunted places, lost settlements, hidden towns, and wonders just past the edge of ordinary life. These stories move from creation to trickery, from familiar forests to unseen worlds under mountains and waters, from laughter to terror and back again. Retold for modern readers, this volume brings together creation myths, animal tales, origin stories, and supernatural legends in a vivid journey through Cherokee storytelling tradition.

Buch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Cherokee people like all other Native American Indian tribes possess a huge oral history. Before the time of written words, the history, customs and skills of a tribe were passed down through word-of-mouth and storytelling. Today, it is still an important part of Cherokee life. Elder tribe members use stories to teach morals and culture to children and others while keeping a rich history alive. Storytelling also allows people to get to know one another. The stories of the Cherokee people make us unique, but stories will be known only as long as they are told. When someone ceases to tell a story, part of our cultural knowledge is gone.Under old traditional law, these tales or stories were only told to fellow Cherokee or other Indian People. Many of these stories contained within this book were recorded by James Mooney who lived with the Cherokee in the 1800's. These include animal stories, creation myths, legends, and ghost stories, as well as, historical events such as the Trail of Tears.These stories have been passed from generation to generation and as with tradition, and have been left as much intact as possible. I learned many of these stories from my grandfather as a child, just as other Cherokee children did. As with tradition, these stories are now shared with you, to go forward and share with a future generation.In this collection, you will find such stories as Origin of the Pleiades and the Pine, What Became Of the Rabbit, The Rabbit Dines the Bear, The Rabbit Escapes from the Wolves, The Rattlesnake's Vengeance, The Red Man and the Uktena, The Eagle's Revenge, Agan-uni'tsi's Search for the Uktena, The Hunter and Selu, The Snake Boy, The First Fire, The Lost Cherokee and many, many more.
