书籍简介

“生命是什么？它是夜里萤火虫的闪光。它是冬天水牛的呼吸。它是跑过草地、消失在夕阳中的小影子。” ——黑麋鹿，奥格拉拉苏族 美洲原住民的智慧以口耳相传的故事和神话为基础，代代相传，揭示了一个部落的起源，记述了与诸神抗争的英雄们，展示了如何接近瓦坎-塔卡（伟大的神灵），探索了真正和平的本质，并反思了随着欧洲殖民者到来而变化的地貌。

《图解美洲原住民传说》采用精美的传统中式装帧，收录了80多条发人深省的谚语，这些谚语探讨了精神世界、家庭、父子、动植物和四季变化，出自在北美大陆居住了数千年的人们——易洛魁人、阿尔冈昆人、夏延人、霍皮人、达科他人和苏族人——等等。许多谚语出自知名的美洲原住民引领者，例如黑脚族战士克劳福特、传奇的阿帕奇族引领者杰罗尼莫，以及知名的奥格拉拉拉科塔族巫医黑麋鹿。

“What is Life? It is the flash of a firefly in the night. It is the breath of a buffalo in the wintertime. It is the little shadow which runs across the grass and loses itself in the sunset.” — Black Elk, Oglala Sioux Founded on stories and myths told orally, the wisdom of Native American peoples has been passed down through generations, revealing the origins of a tribe, chronicling the heroes who fought the gods, showing how to reach Wakan-Taka (the Great Spirit), exploring the nature of the True Peace and reflecting on the changing landscape with the arrival of European settlers.

Beautifully produced in traditional Chinese binding, Native American Legends Illustrated offers more than 80 thought-provoking proverbs on the spirit world, family, fathers and sons, animals and plants, and the changing seasons, in the words of the people who have inhabited the North American continent for thousands of years – the Iroquois, Algonquin, Cheyenne, Hopi, Dakota and Sioux – to name a few. Many quotes are from well-known Native American leaders, such as the Blackfoot warrior Crowfoot, the legendary Apache leader Geronimo, and famous Oglala Lakota medicine man Black Elk.
