An Archaeology of the Soul
Author: Robert L. Hall
language: en
Publisher: University of Illinois Press
Release Date: 1997
The richness and the range of Native American spirituality has long been noted, but it has never been examined so thoroughly, nor with such an eye for the amazing interconnectedness of Indian tribal ceremonies and practices, as in An Archaeology of the Soul. In this monumental work, destined to become a classic in its field, Robert Hall traces the genetic and historical relationships of the tribes of the Midwest and Plains--including roots that extend back as far as 3,000 years. Looking beyond regional barriers, An Archaeology of the Soul offers new depths of insight into American Indian ethnography. Hall uncovers the lineage and kinship shared by Native North Americans through the perspectives of history, archaeology, archaeoastronomy, biological anthropology, linguistics, and mythology. The wholeness and panoramic complexity of American Indian belief has never been so fully explored--or more deeply understood.

Jewish Folk Songs from the Baltics
Author: Kevin C. Karnes
language: en
Publisher: A-R Editions, Inc.
Release Date: 2014-08-01
This edition presents sixty-four Jewish folk songs transcribed between 1899 and the 1930s by the Latvian ethnomusicologist Emilis Melngailis (18741954). Drawing on manuscript sources and other archival material, it makes available, for the first time in print, a broad selection of Jewish vernacular music performed in the territory of present-day Latvia and Lithuania in the decades preceding World War II. Accompanying essays introduce Melngailis and his collecting project, situating his work within the context of contemporary discourses on Jewish and Latvian folk song, nation, and identity as they coalesced in Riga, St. Petersburg, and German-speaking Mitteleuropa in the early twentieth century.
