The Euahlayi Tribe by Langloh Parker Pdf

Katie Langloh Parker has made an extensive study of the Euahlay tribe in Australia. Because she is a woman, she had a unique perspective in studying the women and children of the tribe. She was able to interact with the women in ways a male anthropologist could not do. From the introduction, The two chief points in dispute are (1) the nature and origin of the marriage laws of the Australians; and (2) the nature and origin of such among their ideas and practices as may be styled 'religious. Mrs. Parker hoped to clarify these topics for the readers. This book is recommended for anyone interested in the anthropology of the native tribes in Australia.

The Euahlayi Tribe by K. Langloh Parker Pdf

No introduction to Mrs. Langloh Parker's book can be more than that superfluous 'bush' which, according to the proverb, good wine does not need. Our knowledge of the life, manners, and customary laws of many Australian tribes has, in recent years, been vastly increased by the admirable works of Mr. Howitt, and of Messrs. Spencer and Gillen. But Mrs. Parker treats of a tribe which, hitherto, has hardly been mentioned by anthropologists, and she has had unexampled opportunities of study.

The Euahlayi Tribe by K. Langloh Parker Pdf

Excerpt from The Euahlayi Tribe: A Study of Aboriginal Life in Australia In each phratry are smaller sets of persons, each set distinguished by the name of some animal or other natural object, their totem.' The same totem is never found in both phratries. Thus a person marrying out of his or her phratry, as all must do, necessarily marries out of his or her totem. The same arrangements exist among tribes which derive phratry and totem names through the father. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

The Euahlayi Tribe by K. Langloh Parker Pdf

"In breezy, colloquial language Mrs. Langloh Parker has set down a considerable amount of accurate information concerning the Euahlayi tribe of the Narran river in the north of New South Wales. She makes no pretensions to be a scientific student, but for twenty years she has lived in contact with the Euahlayi, and being of an inquiring disposition and having the grace of sympathy she has acquired a very considerable store of first-hand knowledge about a tribe of whom scarcely anything was known previously, and thus her observations help to fill one of the numerous blank spaces which remain as a reproach to us in the ethnic map of Australia....This charming book appeals alike to the student and the general reader, and the missionary will also find food for reflection, especially I the closing remarks. Mr. Lang's Introduction points out the scientific importance of some of Mrs. Parker's investigations and explains the share he has had in the production of this book." -The Saturday Review From medicine men to witches to trapping of game and averting demons, The Euahlayi Tribe is the esteemed work by K. Langloh Parker that brings to light in formal terms her firsthand understanding of Euahlayi society. The resulting ethnography is factual and well written. Parker was obviously also familiar with the anthropological literature. She was hardly the detached observer that modern ethnography demands, however, at that time this methodology had not been invented yet. This is not necessarily a bad thing. As Andrew Lang points out in the introduction, Parker lived in close contact with aborigines for many years, and as a female she had access to the women of the tribe, a viewpoint for which we have no other source from that time period. An eminent name in the field of literature, Parker is famed for her unsurpassed contribution to Aborigine culture. She is the earliest author who brought the miseries and sufferings of Aborigines to the notice of Australians in a focused and meaningful manner. CONTENTS INTRODUCTION I. INTRODUCTORY II.

The Euahlayi Tribe by Katie Langloh Parker Pdf

Catherine (Katie) Langloh Parker (1 May 1856 - 27 March 1940) was a writer who lived in Northern New South Wales Australia in the late nineteenth century. She is best known for recording the stories of the Aboriginal people around her. Langloh Parker's early work with the Euahlayi Tribe provides the reader with a fascinating insight into Aborigine life in the early twentieth century. Saved by an Aboriginal as a child, her accounts of the Tribe provide them with a friendly representative amongst the European Settlers of Australia, in a period where they faced great persecution and disruption to their traditional of way of life. Her recordings contain the best known accounts of the Aboriginal people in North-West New South Wales. This book also contains the earliest written account of Byamee, the All-Father, casting doubt on the assertion that that the God was a construct of European missionaries. It is also a valuable historical insight into the daily life, folklore and culture of the Aborigines before they way of life disappeared forever under the cultural hegemony of Australian Colonialists.
