Produktbeschreibung
The great coastal spirit, Raven, and his friends, famous for their transformational powers, realize that the world itself has now been transformed from the outside in. Raven then finds himself confronting the greatest mystery of all: Why did the newcomers appear and what do they want? Through a series of novel encounters and adventures, Raven uses all his legendary acumen, cleverness, and insight to solve the challenges set before him, his friends, and allies. These include the dark mystery of a leper colony, the dangerous shadow of an abandoned village site, the desperation of his children lost in the cityscape, and the puzzle of the houses of artifacts. With great imagination, compassion, and a poignant sense of recent history, Raven pushes through from the far end of what was the past, to a place where the future of his peoples can begin anew. Author Bio - This book is a modest gift from a European thinker to the Indigenous peoples of the world. Social philosopher G.V. Loewen, born and raised on Vancouver Island, spent much of his childhood in the local nature, becoming conscious of the deeper meaningfulness of place and history, promoting as well a new self-consciousness. He became aware of how he was at the same time part of the culture of historical conquest, prompting a reflective set of narratives told in the language of the folktale, but taking place in the contemporary world situation in which Indigenous cultures remain marginalized. This effort is a beginning, not only of a dialogue, but of an attempt at understanding a wider truth beyond the limitations of previous cross-cultural engagements. The author of 56 books, retired professor G.V. Loewen is now CEO of Vigilance Digital Media, Inc.
