Produktbeschreibung

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Herbert "Herb" Kawainui K ne, considered one of the principal figures in the renaissance of Hawaiian culture in the 1970s, was a celebrated artist-historian and author with a special interest in the seafaring traditions of the ancestral peoples of Hawai i. K ne played a key role in demonstrating that Hawaiian culture arose not from some accidental seeding of Polynesia, but that Hawai i was reachable by voyaging canoes from Tahiti able to make the journey and return. This offered a far more complex notion of the cultures of the Pacific Islands than had previously been accepted. Furthermore, he created vivid imagery of Hawaiian culture prior to contact with Europeans, and especially the period of early European influence, that sparked appreciation of a nearly forgotten traditional life
