I have tried to read this astonishing work but I fear it's beyond my capabilities right now. I will come back to it eventually because I very much want to do it justice. I can't give it a star rating yet. What I can say is this: we desperately need books like this. Reconciliation is hard work. Telling the truth is hard work. Hearing, or reading, the truth of the First Australians' experience is challenging. The Yolngu people have a profoundly different way of being in the world and it was difficult for me to get my brain around the concepts in Songspirals. I really hope, though, that I can rise to the challenge. Finally, I am deeply thankful to the amazing women who created this book for their generosity in sharing their knowledge with the rest of the world. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

'We want you to come with us on our journey, our journey of songspirals. Songspirals are the essence of people in this land, the essence of every clan. We belong to the land and it belongs to us. We sing to the land, sing about the land. We are that land. It sings to us.' Aboriginal Australian cultures are the oldest living cultures on earth and at the heart of Aboriginal cultures is song. These ancient narratives of landscape have often been described as a means of navigating across vast distances without a map, but they are much, much more than this. Songspirals are sung by Aboriginal people to awaken Country, to make and remake the life-giving connections between people and place. Songspirals are radically different ways of understanding the relationship people can have with the landscape. For Yolngu people from North East Arnhem Land, women and men play different roles in bringing songlines to life, yet the vast majority of what has been published is about men's place in songlines. Songspirals is a rare opportunity for outsiders to experience Aboriginal women's role in crying the songlines in a very authentic and direct form. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
