People tend to forget the past. For example, nine years have passed since the Great East Japan Earthquake and Tsunami of 2011, and memories of the disaster have begun to fade even in the disaster-stricken areas. People who have experienced disasters directly have tried to spread the memories of those events in various ways because they do not want their children and grandchildren to endure what they did. One of the most impressive ways of sharing these memories is for witnesses of disasters to communicate how they directly experienced them. There is a challenge in handing down these stories because people directly affected by the disasters will die within the next ten years. This paper takes up two examples of volcanoes in Japan, and examines how stories of these disasters were passed on to people who have not experienced them directly. We proceed by investigating common points in these stories and comparing them, and also by exploring the activity of passing how these disaster stories have been passed down after more than 100 years since its occurrence when there are no more survivors who have any direct memory of it.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
How do migration experiences passed down across generations relate to God’s work of sanctification, and how might Asian American churches engage the stories of their ancestors as a form of Christian formation? Drawing from scripture, migration theologies, educational theory, literature in Asian American ministry, and personal experience, this article argues that Asian American churches must begin designing discipleship curriculum that explicitly honors, integrates, and embodies the stories of their families’ multiple migrations into their spiritual lives because it is through such remembrance and learning that God can render Christ-like transformation.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The paper examines the function of storytelling in the novel Ceremony. Leslie Marmon Silko includes traditional stories about the Laguna Pueblo, retelling stories, which have been passed down through the generations throughout oral traditions, stories that explore the nature of magic, that go into the origin of evil, and which can also show the way to redemption. Silko uses stories in the form of poems, oral narration, intertextuality, she even writes without chapters. She did not give chapters to her novel because she did not want to adapt to the standard format of the novel, she tries to avoid Anglo centric conventions. As many postmodern texts, the novel Ceremony can be seen as a response to the horrors of World War II. But unlike other literary works of postmodernism, Silko argues that we must present this tragedy throughout oral narration in order to heal ourselves.

Many cultures have developed myths and legends rooted in the ideas of vampirism, lycanthropy, and witchcraft. According to anthropological currents, these stories don’t come up from nothing, but follow a process of transformation of elements drawn from real experiences eventually transformed into fictional stories depending on the message they are meant to spread. Every legend has an origin in history, an event with no plausible explanation at the time due to lack of scientific technology and resources. Although, reality can be described in scientific terms. These possible facts connected to mythology do not entirely explain the success of myth in folklore, but only some more or less impressive aspects following these legends. These facts when turned and twisted by imagination and superstitious thinking create these inexplicable enthralling stories which undoubtedly would be passed down to generations as souvenirs of history, culture, and civilization.

Until now, Kazakh folk prose has been widely studied cognitively. In general, folklore as a science pays great attention to the genre of prose. However, it would be wrong to say that all genres of Kazakh folklore have been studied and known to the broad masses. Despite the large number of humorous stories, in Kazakh folklore they are considered within other genres of prose. In other words, humorous stories in Kazakh folklore were not the subject of a separate, special study. If we pay attention to the opinions expressed in the writings of famous scientists-researchers in the field of folklore, it is confirmed that humorous stories are a branch of folk literature that is passed down from generation to generation. Despite the fact that humorous stories have been previously studied, it is natural that the latest advances in science raise questions that need to be revised, so we realized the importance of humorous stories in the work of our people and their study is a scientifically relevant topic. Thus, based on previous studies of the genres of folklore, this article examines the connection between humorous stories and other genres.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
“This, too, belongs,” is a mantra that helps me navigate this strange time of the global pandemic and Black Lives Matter. It also helps with the project I started. Waking the Stories is based on an archive of Ibiteekerezo or wisdom stories from the oral tradition of precolonial Rwanda, where I am from. These stories were traditionally held as bodies of wisdom and passed down in families. Very few Rwandans know how to interpret these stories anymore. They were transcribed and translated by colonial administrators, missionaries, and researchers to better understand, keep traces of, and ultimately supersede the cultures they colonized. The violence of it paralyses me and I feel very small. But what if that too belonged? What if I imagined my project as small as a seed? What if I gave myself permission to start very simply from where I am situated and acknowledged that one challenge of working through historical trauma is finding ways to look at the past, recognize what was done and experienced, its consequences to this day, and remaining well? To be continued.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Janice Galloway represents one of the most strikingly original voices in new Scottish fiction, which breaks with the tradition of conventional narratives looking back at the national history and looking up to larger-than-life male heroes. Instead, Galloway writes deftly crafted short stories of everyday life in contemporary settings, finding that the past informs the present and proceeding to explore how the stateless nation’s cultural heritage affects her characters. This paper analyses selected stories from Galloway’s collections Blood (1991) and Where You Find It (1996) from the perspective of trauma criticism, which seems a particularly fitting approach to the author’s often disturbing narratives of violence and abuse. The focus is on child characters and on the ways that historical trauma, as introduced by Sigmund Freud and further refined by Cathy Caruth, is passed down to them. Finally, the paper provides examples from the individual short stories which illustrate how the traumatic experience can be acknowledged, witnessed, and ultimately communicated.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Healing is the basis of belief in San Lázaro, a popular saint among Cubans, Cuban-Americans, and other Latinx peoples. Stories about healing, received through faith in San Lázaro, are typically passed on through family members, rendering them genealogical narratives of healing. In this photo essay, the author draws on her maternal grandmother’s devotion to San Lázaro and explores how other devotees of this saint create genealogical narratives of healing that are passed down from generation to generation. These genealogical narratives of healing function as testaments to the efficaciousness of San Lázaro’s healing abilities and act as familial avenues through which younger generations inherit belief in the saint. Using interview excerpts and ethnographic observations conducted at Rincón de San Lázaro church in Hialeah, Florida, the author locates registers of lo cotidiano, the everyday practices of the mundane required for daily functions and survival, and employs arts-based methods such as photography, narrative inquiry, and thematic poetic coding to show how the stories that believers tell about San Lázaro, and their experiences of healing through faith in the saint, constitute both genealogical narratives of healing and genealogical healing narratives where testimonies become a type of narrative medicine.

Naming is searching for language symbols to describe objects, concepts, and processes by utilizing vocabulary through changes in meaning or the creation of words. Toponyms are used as the identity of a place because they come from the results of the culture of the people in the area, which originate from the reciprocal relationship with the environment, in this case, namely language. The name of the place cannot be separated from the characteristics or things related to the place, such as the name of the sub-district in Banyumas Regency. This research is descriptive qualitative. The object of study of toponyms in this research is the naming of sub-districts in Banyumas Regency, which have physical and cultural characteristics that can be traced from an event or event in the past. The toponymy of sub-districts in Banyumas Regency can be a source of local history for the Banyumas people. Myths are passed down from generation to generation as part of the local history of place names. The history of naming is an oral tradition passed down from generation to generation, so naming places has cultural value. There are also local wisdom values in the sub-district toponymy in Banyumas Regency. The research results show that the sub-district toponyms in Banyumas Regency can trace the values behind the naming stories, namely the social and cultural values of the stories or myths of the Banyumas people. This local topography value in Banyumas Regency can be used as a source of learning for the younger generation.

"‘History’s Attic’: The Role of Legends and Family Stories in Gendering and Decolonizing US Immigration and Ethnic History Through Laurie Fabiano’s Family Saga Elizabeth Street (2006)". English: Journal of the English Association 68, n. 263 (2019): 366–88. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/english/efz034.
Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Abstract This article explores the role of legends and family stories in gendering and decolonizing US immigration and ethnic history, particularly through the lens of Italian/American literature and culture. Using the theoretical framework of the politics of representation, the analysis concentrates on the function of mythic and passed-down stories not only as naturalizing agents of cultural norms but as a means to destabilize hegemonic narratives, particularly gendered history and media influence. Laurie Fabiano’s family saga Elizabeth Street (2006) is a debut novel that intertwines the strands of history, autobiography and journalistic research, among others. Precisely the status of this novel as a hybrid genre sheds light into the additional use of alternative sources such as legendary and familial narratives to study migration and ethnic history, as well as to (re)imagine the past from a feminist perspective.

One of the greatest forms of entertainment that is passed down through generations is the art of storytelling. Stories told from generation to generation have entertained children around the world for centuries. Many favorites for children have been myths and folktales that entail measurements that pique our curiosity. Some examples include Johnny Appleseed; Nessie the Loch Ness Monster; and Paul Bunyan and Babe, his blue ox. These are just a few of the better-known characters of such tales. When used in the classroom, storytelling often captivates the imagination of students, thus enhancing the learning process.

Fear of childbirth is universal. Because of the stories of bad experiences passed down for years, many women fear childbirth. As a result, many women do not believe in the power of their own bodies and often hand over control of their bodies to health-care professionals, resulting in unhappy childbirth experiences because of unnecessary intervention during labor and birth. As a pregnancy trainer who prepares pregnant women for childbirth, the author wrote her personal childbirth story with an autoethnographic narrative method. Her aim is to help motivate pregnant women preparing for childbirth, health-care professionals preparing those pregnant women, and birthing staff.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Māori conceptualisations of ancestral environs and its connections to memory often reside in the realm of whakapapa (genealogy) having originated from Papatūānuku and Ranginui (primordial ancestors and gods), their loving embrace, and their eventual separation that carved the space for nourishing lands and waters. These stories of whakapapa were passed down intergenerationally through many Māori creative expressions, including waiata (songs), haka (posture dance), pūrākau (stories), whakataukī (proverbial sayings), ruruku (sequence of incantations), and karakia (prayers). This has resulted in a genealogically and environmentally derived Māori music theory. The disruption of settler-colonialism aimed to sever whakapapa from the memory as being reflected in our ancestral environs and within the hearts of Māori. ‘He Whiringa Wainuku’ refers to the weaving of water elements on earth and sets the imagery for decolonising the interconnections of whakapapa, land, water, and memory through Kaupapa Māori methodologies and Māori creative expressions.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Each community in the world has a past in which their existence is commonly determined by things happening in their past. To preserve their past a community needs means of transmission, among others, through oral traditions such as stories, mantra, and way of life. They inherit stories, mantra, and ways of life with values that have related meanings to their life. The heritage of these things is very important to preserve and develop the collective identity of the community. As they continue to be passed down, they become the collective memory of a community. The West Kalimantan Malay society has collective memories that are relatively inherited in the form of oral traditions and other life practices such as cultivation. Part of the collective memory has awakened them to the brotherhood with the people called Dayak today. Nevertheless, the collective memory is confronted with challenges both coming from within themselves and from the outside that may eliminate them without a better replacement.

Advice values in folklore stories can educate in taking lessons and role models that are worthy of being guided by and then used as examples of bad behavior and those that are not good not to emulate. The value of valuable advice, namely: being sincere and selfless and forgiving their children, Forgiving others is a commendable deed, The child's respect for both parents is manifested in sentences that show obedience to both parents. Folklore often reflects the creativity of traditional societies while still holding fast to tradition as a manifestation of creativity that is alive and passed down from generation to generation. Thus, folklore stories remain oriented towards local ethnic values. Value (value) has always been a measure in determining truth and justice that comes from religious content, logic, and the norms prevailing in society. Interpreting values in Folklore by interpreting a behavioral trend that originates from psychological symptoms such as: desires, motives, attitudes, needs, and beliefs that are owned, so that the values of Folklore can be used as parametric educational values, religiosity, social values, and norms as ethnic bias.

To acquire, to preserve, and to inform. These seem to me to be the driving passions of the collector. My collecting of Burns editions, editions about Burns, Burns artefacts and Burns traditions emerged naturally from my love of my own locality and community. Burns's work has been, and to some degree still is, part of the east Ulster community in which I have lived all of my 50 years. There is a joy in finding, a satisfaction in acquisition, but we never truly own anything. My article will outline some of Ulster’s wider cultural context, but will focus upon a selection of items and stories I have found or which have been passed down to me. Burns is indeed Scotland’s National Bard, but the Ulster-Scots community are his kinfolk too.

Twenty-five years have passed since the Hanshin-Awaji earthquake. While Hyogo Prefecture and the city of Kobe have made a strong recovery, they also have a social responsibility to pass on lessons learned from the past to future generations. To retell the past, disasters are also well known for their war stories and peace education programs. Various peace education initiatives have been implemented around the world. While many people can talk about the Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake based on their experiences, an increasing number of people have not experienced the disaster. In addition, the number of schoolteachers who cannot describe the disaster to children are increasing because they were born after the disaster. This paper introduces the Promotion Program of Education for disaster risk reduction implemented by the Kobe City Board of Education and investigates how education for disaster risk reduction has developed in schools. The authors involved and surveyed two elementary schools, one junior high school, and one high school. This survey points out the importance of continuous education for disaster risk reduction, and highlights the importance of dialogue and interaction with people who have not experienced the disaster, so that the story of the disaster can be narrated in their own words.

All-encompassing Chinese traditional culture, with its time-honored civilization lasting for over 5,000 years, has created a myriad of glorious stories. Modern cultural aesthetics, in particular, allows for the collision and fusion of cultures over time and space. Of all the traditional cultures, the legendary culture of beasts has been passed down along with the development of Chinese culture. The inheritance of traditional culture in modern society is manifested in all aspects, and interpreting and depicting traditional culture from a modern perspective is tantamount to re-creating traditional culture, where innovation and inheritance are the vanes of the times. From the perspective of beast elements, this paper analyzes the beast culture and its artistic expression in modern cultural and creative design, taking the Catalogue “The Classic of Mountains and Rivers” by Chinese artist VIKI LEE and his creative works.

Folklore often reflects the creativity of traditional communities while still holding fast to tradition as a manifestation of creativity that lives and is passed down from generation to generation. Thus, folklore stories remain oriented towards values as a mandate with local ethnic content. The mandate as a value has always been a measure in determining truth and justice that comes from the content of religion, logic, and norms that apply in society. Interpreting values in folklore by interpreting a behavioral tendency that starts from psychological symptoms such as: desires, motives, attitudes, needs, and beliefs, so that the values of folklore can be used as parametric values of education, religion.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
A home is the most comfortable dwelling for a family. Unfortunately, it can be influenced by cultural elements, traditions, and myths that bring about unfavorable beliefs. Many assumptions argue that the 'Rumah Tusuk Sate' (House of Satay Skewers) is an uncomfortable place to live due to the negative impacts it may bring, driven by cultural perspectives, traditions, religious beliefs, and Feng Shui among the Chinese community. These beliefs are deeply rooted in culture and traditions, passed down through stories linked to myths. This research aims to explore the underlying causes of cultural factors that influence the perception of 'Rumah Tusuk Sate' from a Christian perspective. This study employs a qualitative method, using library research as the primary source of data, encompassing books such as the Bible, articles, and literature. The Bible, from a Christian perspective, firmly addresses questions regarding the cultural influence on the perception of 'Rumah Tusuk Sate.' Christianity and culture can coexist harmoniously without altering the fundamental concept of faith grounded in the pure Gospel.

Inspired by a conversation with Doran Ross (1947–2020), a leading African art scholar and curator who revolutionized the field of African art, this article discusses the adventures of fieldwork – in particular, its unpredictable nature. More specifically, it presents my experiences conducting an archaeological ethnography of nineteenth-century Islamic talismans in Asante (Ghana), and the matter of the “fake”. Islamic talismans comprise inscriptions written directly onto paper, folded, encased in a string binding, and sewn into small leather or silver pouches, to be worn, hung, and/or buried. Engaging artifacts, texts, and their stories passed down through the generations, I studied Islamic talismans together with their owners and/or custodians, most of whom were unaware of their contents until we examined them together. In this article, I reveal how on one occasion, we examined a talisman that was different. Ostensibly the “genuine” article, this simulated object emulated talismans’ outwardly material features, but instead contained a small piece of wood rather than paper inscriptions.

Mythology refers to traditional stories often involving gods and heroes. Many of these tales have been widely popularized, and in turn, have been found to be of high significance in investigating the evolution of the English language and culture. As mythologies are often passed down through cultures, these tales heavily influence modern traditions and beliefs. They also play an important role in the evolution and development of certain languages. This paper discusses the relationship between mythology, language, and culture through the help of a comparative analysis of mythologies, vocabularies, literary works, and traditions regarding death. The analysis reveals that many English words and phrases originate from Greek and Roman mythology, and that an individual's belief is closely connected to the mythology of the culture they grew up in. This, in turn, proves that mythology cannot be ignored when investigating language and culture, and that an understanding of mythological tales will allow individuals to better appreciate both literature and cultural traditions.

In the past, humankind created stories to explain known and unknown events, giving rise to myths and legends that attributed truth to unexplained phenomena of that time. These stories were passed down through generations orally, remaining alive in people’s imagination and acquiring deeper meanings. This research aims to analyze the infl uence of legends and myths on contemporary culture and education, investigating their impact on both cultural and educational aspects of present-day society. The justifi cation for this study lies in the importance of understanding legends and myths as cultural and educational elements that have transmitted values, knowledge, and shaped individual and collective identities throughout history. Understanding this infl uence is crucial for appreciating and preserving our cultural heritage and harnessing the pedagogical potential of these narratives in modern education. The research problem consists of examining how legends and myths still exert infl uence on current culture and education, considering technological advancements and social changes. The study seeks to understand whether these traditional narratives still play a relevant role in cultural and educational formation or if they have been marginalized amidst new forms of communication and knowledge. The methodology employed encompasses a qualitative approach, involving analysis of bibliographic sources, historical documents, case studies, interviews, and content analysis to provide a comprehensive understanding of the infl uence of legends and myths on contemporary culture and education.

Nvshu has been passed down in Shang Jiang Xu, Jiangyong County, Hunan Province, and some neighboring areas, and it has been developed and spread only among women in the area. Nvshu is the only gender text in the world, uniquely female. The paper will use the methods of fieldwork, character interviews, and literature research to represent the subjectivity of the inheritance of Nvshu with various inheritors. All inheritors establish their subjectivity system of Nvshu culture to legacy. Then, the current inherence method of Nvshu is connected with the artistic aspects, so many people ignore the culture itself. As time passes, Nvshu culture is also undergoing transformational development. The Nvshu, as a tool of linguistic communication between women, has lost its original value and gradually developed into other directions, finally leaving the stage of history. In addition, this paper will analyze the current status of the inheritance of Nvshu through the historical and cultural background of Nvshu and the situation of the inheritors as a starting point. Furthermore, the paper represented some paradox of the information of Nvshu and then showed the impact of the inherence. To sum up, the paper mainly focuses on the different stories of each inheritor to reflect their different cultural subjectivities and ways of inheritance, thus contributing to the inheritance of Nvshu and prompting the culture to continue revitalizing and make more people know about the culture of Nvshu, to protect the endangered traditional culture of the ethnic group.

This article discusses how for the Apurinã community in Brazil, the relationships with certain places and nonhuman entities actually co-produce biocultural heritage. This involves not only storytelling, care, and respect, but also avoidance, and thus shows specific intergenerational ways of managing and relating to the land. Here I will especially address Apurinã ancestral forest and historical places, and the experiences and knowledge that they trigger, including stories of Apurinã ancestors, core values, ways of relating in the communities, as well as preferred ecological practices passed down through the generations. Besides the current Apurinã community, their biocultural heritage is shared and protected by various nonhuman actors who are its true owners. The ontological dimension of the Amazonian biocultural heritage also involves a temporal aspect, as the nonhuman entities contributing to its production can be activated and interacted with from different times, from the distant past to present times. Finally, this article discusses how international cultural laws protect such an understanding of the biocultural heritage, and shows that they offer insufficient space for nonhuman actors in biocultural heritage protection.

The independence of Indonesia was achieved through a challenging process that involved various elements of the Indonesian people, including the santri community. The role of santri (Islamic students) in Indonesia's independence was evident long before the proclamation of independence on August 17 1945. This article delves deeper into the history and roles of the santri in resisting Western colonizers to fight for Indonesia's freedom. The research methodology employed in this study is a literature review, drawing from various references. We critically and thoroughly analyze these sources to support the ideas and themes we present, specifically focusing on the role of pesantren (Islamic boarding schools) that have consistently resisted colonizers over centuries, inspiring the masses, especially the Muslim community, to enrich the Islamic historiography: the role of ulama-santri (Islamic scholars and students) in realizing a prosperous nation under the guidance of Allah within the framework of the Republic of Indonesia. The heroic stories of the pesantren community are not only passed down orally from generation to generation but are also recorded in Indonesia's historical records.

The postcolonial narratives we see today are a study in contrast and tell a different tale from their colonial predecessors as minorities and individuals finally have found the voice and position to tell their stories. Histories written about our culture and societies have now found a new purpose and voice. The stories we have passed down from generation to generation through both oral and written histories, continue to morph and change with the tide of time as they re-centre our cultural narratives and shared experiences. As a result, the study of diaspora and transnationalism have altered the way in which we view identity in different forms of multimedia and literature. In this paper, the primary question which will be examined is, how and to what extent does Indian post-colonial literature figure in the formation of identity in contemporary art and literature in the context of ongoing postcolonial ideas and currents? by means of famous and notable postcolonial literary works and theories of Indian authors and theoreticians, with a special focus on the question and notion of identity. This paper works on drawing parallels between themes in Indian and African postcolonial literary works, especially themes such as power, hegemony, east meets west, among others. In this paper, European transnationalism will also be analysed as a case study to better understand postcolonialism in different contexts. The paper will seek to explore some of the gaps in the study of diasporic identity and postcolonial studies and explore some of the changes and key milestones in the evolution of the discourse over the decades.

Who was it that gave birth to existence and the universe? Curiosity is something that everyone has. It's an age-old question with no clear answer. We're reviewing myths for new information based on existing knowledge. Our forefathers and mothers wondered about this as well. It is impossible to know indeed what they were thinking. However, we discovered their expertise through folklore. Literary writers created stories with simile, sarcasm, and metaphors with symbolic significance from knowledge and wisdom. Shamans are singing the lyrics. In this way, people passed down creation stories. People of gold and Silver have been described by Kirat Saksak Mundhum, as has Greek mythology of human creation. According to legend, the two men did not succeed and clashed with the Creator. Then there's the story of a guy built of clay, ash, sky water, and a crucifix in Mundhum. Greek mythology has more bronze, heroic, and even iron men. The myth provides crucial information if we take it as a message. Since the Man of Gold and Silver period, the Kirats and Greeks have lived together. Kirat split off and went east after the Bronze Age or Bronze Man. As a result, Saksak mundhum lacks ages of bronze, Heros, and Iron Man, as Greek mythology describes. Per the mythological study, the Kirat community in Nepal and India who believe in mundhum is a mixed-age group. Accordingly, philosophical analogy and evidence imply that it was made present by Gold, Silver, Alloy, and Iron Age humans.

‘A foot and a boot’. Narratives about children killed by wolves in Finnish folk tradition and media material
Sofie Strandén-Backa
Keywords: wolf attacks in Finland 1880–1881, children, living tradition, mass and social media
The article focuses on narratives about children and wolves, and the material consists of different texts that deal with children who have been killed by wolves in Finland in earlier times. The particular events in question are a series of well-known and documented wolf attacks on children in the Turku region during 1880 and 1881. Older newspaper articles, as well as contemporary texts, are analysed. One aim of the study is to investigate what is set in motion when the relationship between wolves and children is discussed and which underlying patterns emerge as part of that discussion. Another aim is to allow for narrative elements to create a base for discourse about the dangerous wolf. The analysis covers peoples’ comments on websites where the discourse is both defended and challenged and where negotiations about the prerogatives of the animal are made visible. Ever-returning narratives about the dangerous wolf are part of a legend process, where one goal is to convince the audience of the truth of the stories. One way of doing so, throughout the years, has been to present what could be called ‘the bloody list’, a list that consists of the name and age of the dead children, the circumstances under which they were killed and what was left of their bodies. In the stories, there was no way to protect the children, and there is nothing the parents could have done once the wolf got hold of their child. The message in these stories from the 1880s is that there is no rescue from the wolf. This message is passed down to parents and further to the children of today, creating a child-eating beast of (every) wolf. Another goal is to keep the stories alive for future generations, since the events are viewed as so important that they are not to be forgotten. The stories have a somewhat emblematic character, since they reflect an original myth about the genesis of modern Finland, freed from untamed nature and the chaos of wolves.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Current interest in genealogy and family history has soared, but the research journey may be fraught. Original intentions may be inhibited and inevitably altered as the actual historical details are revealed and documented through recorded evidence. While liberties may be taken with memoir and even autobiography, critical family history requires scrutiny of the lived events uncovered—some of which may be in sharp contrast to family myths passed down through generations. I traveled to three states and conducted archival research in local libraries, court houses, historical county archives, and museums in my search for original sources of authentic information about the names listed on a family tree over centuries. This article reports on how and why research on the genealogy of two families joined by marriage shifted from a straightforward recording of chronological facts to the development of a novel. The case can be made that fiction provides an effective and engaging tool for the elaboration of interconnected lives through the addition of historical context, enriching personal details, and imagined dialogue. Key accuracies needed for a critical family history can be preserved but in a genre that enables characters and their stories to come to life.

Indigenous communities in North America have distinct colonial histories with their own story of how their ancestors were able to survive the mass effort to take their land, resources, language, culture, and sometimes even their lives. These stories have been passed down orally and through the DNA of the descendants of survivors via epigenetics. The Historical Loss Scale (HLS) and Historical Loss Associated Symptoms Scale (HLASS) are two validated scales that measure historical trauma among Native Americans. However, as different Indigenous communities have different colonial histories, it is critical to ensure that tools used to measure historical trauma are valid for that specific communities. When these scales are applied to Native Hawaiians, these measures may not provide an accurate picture of the historical trauma experienced by Native Hawaiians. As part of the effort to adapt the HLS for Native Hawaiians, we conducted a crosswalk analysis of the HLS and HLASS with a recent study on Native Hawaiian historical trauma (NHHT) to identify areas of overlap and divergence. We found that while there was significant overlap, several areas of divergence emerged likely stemming from the unique colonial histories of different Indigenous communities.

Folktales stem from the oral tradition passed down over generations by the people who recounted them. These tales form part of the prescribed syllabus, CAPS, in South Africa specifically for Grade 9 English First Additional (EFAL) learners. The study explored the perceptions of folktales by 9 learners and 9 teachers. It was a qualitative study using purposeful sampling and an interpretivist research paradigm. The theoretical lens employed was Vygotsky’s constructivist theory. The study found that there are conflicting views on learning African folktales in English. The former Apartheid system’s impact has not completely been forgotten and there were still negative attitudes towards English as the language of the oppressor. Yet participants claimed that folktales needed to be revived and teachers must use narratives closer to their home and culture. Learners were positive towards learning folktales but there were those who deemed the stories as too simple to study in Grade 9. Teacher participants however revealed that learners benefit in that they learn new vocabulary and also about other cultures and life.

In the article an attempt of the analysis of two songs composed and performed by Jamala, a Ukranian singer of Crimean Tatar origin, has been made. The songs under the study − ‘1944’ and ‘The way home’ – are both dedicated to the deportation of Crimean Tatars in 1944. The annexation of Crimea in 2014 forced many Crimean Tatars to leave the peninsula as protestors against Russian colonial regime were persecuted, threatened, killed. Jamala together with her dissident compatriots had to leave their ancestors’ land in 2014. Crimean Tatars including the singer’s grandparents underwent ruthless mass deportation in 1944. Jamala like other Crimean Tatars of her age represents the generation who were born in deportation, returned home and were doomed to experience the repeat of the forced exile. The singer knows the tragic collisions of her family history from her parents and grandparents who passed down to her their invaluable legacy − Crimean Tatar language, traditions, stories, memories, music, songs – the core of their identity. Jamala and her family are the witnesses and keepers of historical truth and authenticity which serves the foundation for the investigated texts.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Milpa is an ancestral agriculture technique that has been passed down by Indigenous communities in so-called North America for millennia through stories of place. As an Indigenous knowledge system that is based on the symbiotic cultivation of diverse species, learning from milpa gifts lessons to cultivate polycultures of reciprocity. Drawing from my lived experience as a Mestizx educator from Mexico, I propose embodying milpa in learning environments as a horizon of possibility to refuse and disrupt the ways in which education has been limited, standardized, controlled and confined to colonial monocultures (Shiva, 1993). I use the cultivation of milpa as a metaphor to represent the transformation of modernist education systems that prioritize individuality and rationality shifting towards collaborative learning environments that are complex, messy and entangled with the land. Late Indigenous Professor Michael Marker (2018) invites scholars to center place as the beginning point of inquiry when excavating the specific effects of colonization on Indigenous landscapes and communities. Following his advice, I use stories of milpa to experience placeness and provide a representation of the transformation of modernist education systems through the resurgence of Indigenous knowledge systems. I begin this paper with a piece of the Mexica creation story to center “the consciousness of landscape” (p. 453) and continue to explain how from a modern perspective, place has shifted to produce bordered monocultures that eradicate diversity. I conclude by narrating the story of three sisters to envision the embodiment of milpa inside learning environments to form polycultures of reciprocity where animate and inanimate beings are all connected inside a web of relations belonging to the land.
