    / '", ... it PACIFIC ISLANDS PROGRAM ! University of Hawaii j Miscellaneous Work Papers 1974:1 . BIBLIOGRAPHY OF HAWAIIAN LANGUAGE MATERIALS AT THE UNIVERSITY OF HAWAII, MANOA CAMPUS Second Printing, 1979 Photocopy, Summer 1986 ,i ~ Foreword Each year the Pacific Islands Program plans to duplicate inexpensively a few work papers whose contents appear to justify a wider distribution than that of classroom contact or intra-University circulation. For the most part, they will consist of student papers submitted in academic courses and which, in their respective ways, represent a contribution to existing knowledge of the Pacific. Their subjects will be as varied as is the multi-disciplinary interests of the Program and the wealth of cooperation received from the many Pacific-interested members of the University faculty and the cooperating com­ munity.

F. Young Kehau Kahapea Velda Yamanaka , . • Revised 1974 Second Printing, 1979 PREFACE The Hawaiian Collection of the University of Hawaii Library is perhaps the world's largest, numbering more than 50,000 volumes. As students of the Hawaiian language, we have a particular interest in the Hawaiian language texts in the Collection. Up to now, however, there has been no single master list or file through which to gain access to all the Hawaiian language materials. This is an attempt to provide such list. We culled the bibliographical information from the Hawaiian Collection Catalog and the Library she1flists. We attempted to gather together all available materials in the Hawaiian language, on all subjects, whether imprinted on paper or microfilm, on tape or phonodisc.

    THE KANAKA AND THEIR ISLES OF SANDWICH And yet — in fact you need only draw a single thread at any point you choose out of the fabric of life and the run will make a pathway across the whole, and down that wider pathway each of the other threads will become successively visible, one by one. — Heimito von Doderer, DIE DÂIMONEN HDT WHAT? INDEX HAWAIIAN ISLANDS SANDWICH ISLANDS “Sandwich Islanders” in Chapter 1, paragraph 3a of WALDEN: Henry Thoreau referred to the Kanaka under the name currently in use in New England: WALDEN: I would fain say something, not so much concerning the Chinese and Sandwich Islanders as you who read these pages, who are said to live in New England; something about your condition, especially your outward condition or circumstances in this world, in this town, what it is, whether it is necessary that it be as bad as it is, whether it cannot be improved as well as not. I have travelled a good deal in Concord; and every where, in shops, and offices, and fields, the inhabitants have appeared to me to be doing penance in a thousand remarkable ways. What I have heard of Brahmins sitting exposed to four fires and looking in the face of the sun; or hanging suspended, with their heads downward, over flames; or looking at the heavens over their shoulders “until it becomes impossible for them to resume their natural position, while from the twist of the neck nothing but liquids can pass into the stomach;” or dwelling, chained for life, at the foot of a tree; or measuring with their bodies, like caterpillars, the breadth of vast empires; or standing on one leg on the tops of pillars, –even these forms of conscious penance are hardly more incredible and astonishing than the scenes which I daily witness.

  • Keopuolani, Sacred Wife, Queen Mother, 1778-1823
    ESTHER T. MOOKINI Keopuolani, Sacred Wife, Queen Mother, 1778-1823 KEOPUOLANI, DAUGHTER OF KINGS, wife of a king, and mother of two kings, was the last direct descendant of the ancient kings of Hawai'i and Maui and the last of the female ali'i (chief) whose mana was equal to that of the gods. From May 1819 to March 1820 she was the central figure in the kingdom's history. Her husband, Kameha- meha, had already united the islands under his rule. On May 8 or 14, 1819, he died in Kailua, Kona. It was during the mourning period that the ancient kapu system collapsed, and Keopuolani was instru- mental in this dramatic change. Six months later, when her first-born son, Liholiho, heir to the kingdom, was challenged by Kekuaokalani, his cousin, Keopuolani, the only female ali'i kapu (sacred chief), con- fronted the challenger. She tried to negotiate with him so as to pre- vent a battle that could end with her son's losing the kingdom. The battle at Kuamo'o was fought, Kekuaokalani was killed, and Kameha- meha IPs kingdom was saved. Three months later, the first of the American Protestant missionaries arrived in Kailua, Kona, with a new religion and a system of education. Keopuolani was the first ali'i to welcome them and allowed them to remain in the kingdom. Information about her personal life is meager and dates are few. There is no known image of her, although there was a sketch done of her by the Reverend William Ellis, a member of the London Missionary Society, who lived in the Hawaiian kingdom for two years, Esther T.

    3 My dear parishioners, I greet you all in the sweet name of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. I thank God for this privilege of sharing the word of God with you this month. We are living in a crucial period – as the COVID 19 pandemic is creating fear, even as doctors and scientists are struggling to bring an end to it. We must pray fervently for God’s protection and guidance in overcoming the virus. We must meditate on Psalm 121 and believe it to lead a safe and secure life with our Lord. Our life is like a journey. Our destination is God. The Jews used to read Psalm 121 before going on a pilgrimage, which is why it is also called the ‘Travelers psalm’. They built their temple upon the high mountains, and they climbed mountains to worship God, singing the song of ascents (Psalms 120 – 134). Firstly, they acknowledged God as a Creator God who created the hills and heavens and earth. God is the creator of this universe. He will take care of His creation. (Philippians 4:6) Secondly, they trusted in God’s faithfulness. Our God is able to strengthen us and watch over us as the apple of His eye. (Psalm 17:8) Thirdly, they trusted in God’s total care. Our God is able to protect us from natural calamities and He is always with us, like a shadow. Whenever we totally submit our lives in God’s hand, He is always with us as His name is “Emmanuel.” (Isaiah 7:14) Finally, they ended the song with great assurance by singing “The Lord will keep you from all harm – He will watch over your coming and going both now and forevermore.” Indeed our God is the one who is with us always, to the very end of the age.

True to her understanding of her duties as Kamehameha II’s principal queen, she agrees to accompany him to England in search of an alliance that will secure his kingdom against encroaching Americanization. They arrive safely in London in May 1824 but tragically die of the measles before meeting George IV to arrange the alliance. The British government assigns H.M.S. Blonde under the command of Captain George Anson Lord Byron to return their bodies to Hawai‘i.2 Liholiho’s kingdom is devastated by grief; after a magnificent funeral, their bodies are interred on the grounds of present-day ‘Iolani Palace. On October 31, 1865, their bodies are moved to the new Royal Mausoleum at Mauna ‘Ala in Nu‘uanu where today they lie sealed in the Kamehameha family tomb.3 J. Susan Corley holds a master’s degree in history from the University of Arizona with an inter- est in Hawaiian history.
