K. Langloh Parker

    Katie Langloh Parker wordt geprezen om haar toegewijde inspanningen om de verhalen en overtuigingen van Aboriginal volkeren in het noordwesten van New South Wales te documenteren. Ze leefde nauw samen met de Eulayhi-gemeenschap en haar werk dient als een essentieel verslag van een cultuur die ten onder ging door de Europese kolonisatie. Hoewel haar verslagen de heersende Europese vooroordelen van haar tijd weerspiegelen, bieden ze onschatbare inzichten in inheemse tradities. Haar documentatie van Baiame, daterend van rond 1830, levert het vroegst bekende verband met deze figuur op en betwist theorieën over de missionaire oorsprong ervan.

      Začtěte se do pozoruhodných příběhů australských domorodců kmene Narran, kteří si říkají Nůngáburáové (Noongahburrahs). Na poslední chvíli tyto příběhy koncem 19. století pro nás zachránila paní Catherine (Katie) Langloh Parkerová (1856 – 1940), která se svým manželem mezi domorodci žila dvacet let. Dostanete se do světa, kde lidé žijí jednoduchým způsobem a pomocí jednoduchých nástrojů dennodenně shánějí potravu, aby přežili. Uvidíte, jak, často pomocí lsti, jedni bojují proti druhým anebo s přírodními živly a snaží se je ovlivnit magií. Setkáte se se zvířaty a ptáky pro nás exotickými, jako jsou například ježura, klokan, či emu, poznáte typická nebo oblíbená jídla domorodců a způsob, jak je připravují.

      Extending deep into the caverns of humanity's oldest memories, beyond 60,000 years of history and into the Dreamtime, this collection of Australian Aboriginal myths has been passed down through the generations by tribal storytellers. The myths were compiled at the turn of the century by K. Langloh Parker, one of the first Europeans to realize their significance and spiritual sophistication. Saved from drowning by Aboriginal friends when she was just a child, Parker subsequently gained unique access to Aboriginal women and to stories that had previously eluded anthropologists.In the stories, women tell of their own initiations and ceremonies, the origins and destiny of humanity, and the behavioral codes for society. Included are stories of child-rearing practices, young love in adversity, the dangers of invoking the spiritual powers, the importance of social sharing, the role of women in male conflicts, the dark feminine, and the transformational power of language. Wise Women of the Dreamtime allows us to participate in the world's oldest stories and to begin a new dream of harmony between human society and nature.
