  • A Jungian Journey Through Hawaiian Myth., 173-176
    Reviews 173 Rita Knipe, The Water of Life: A Jungian Journey through Hawaiian Myth. Illustrated by Dietrich Varez. Honolulu: University of Hawaii Press, 1989. Pp. 176. US$22.50 hardcover. Reviewed by Renate von Gizycki, Institut fur VOlkerkunde, Gottingen University, Germany Scholars of Polynesian oral literature are familiar with a great variety of approaches and methods for dealing with mythology. Chants and stories have been collected, translated, compared as folklore, and inter­ preted in the context of linguistic, religious, or historical studies. Rita Knipe came to Hawaii as a professional psychologist, and also with a deep yearning for an island that to her was something like a "mythical land." It became a "love affair," and she felt as though she had "known this place outside my personal life history" as an "almost remembered place of origin" (p. 2). It is against this background (fittingly described in her first chapter as "Drumbeat, Heartbeat") that we must view her involvement with the study of Hawaiian mythology. Her exploration of the deities and heroes of ancient Hawaii led her "beyond the myths," and her fascination with "the brown and golden Hawaiian people, who are changing now as they strive to reconnect with their own vanquished heritage" became a "personal odyssey" to uncover "her roots as a woman." Using the trea- 174 Pacific Studies, Vol. 14, No.4-December 1991 sure of edited and translated material of well-known scholars like Emerson, "The Water of Kane," symbolizing "The Water of Life" (chapter 2), became the central topic of her explorations and the title of her book.

    Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} The Legend of Laieikawai by Dietrich Varez The Legend of Laieikawai by Dietrich Varez. Introduction to L a ‘ieikawai. Martha Warren Beckwith, Translator. L a ‘ieikawai is a Hawaiian romance which recounts the wooing of a native chiefess of high rank and her final deification among the gods. The story was handed down orally from ancient times in the form of a ka‘ao, a narrative rehearsed in prose interspersed with song, in which form old tales are still recited by Hawaiian storytellers. It was put into writing by a native Hawaiian, S.N. Hale‘ole, who hoped thus to awaken in his countrymen an interest in genuine native storytelling based upon the folklore of their race and preserving its ancient customs – already fast disappearing since Cook’s rediscovery of the group in 1778 opened the way to foreign influence – and by this means to inspire in them old ideals of racial glory. Hale‘ole was born about the time of the death of Kamehameha I, a year or two before the arrival of the first American missionaries and the establishment of the Protestant mission in Hawai‘i. In 1834 he entered the mission school at L a hainaluna, Maui, where his interest in the ancient history of his people was stimulated and trained under the teaching of Lorrin Andrews, compiler of the Hawaiian dictionary, published in 1865, and Sheldon Dibble, under whose direction David Malo prepared his collection of “Hawaiian Antiquities,” and whose “History of the Sandwich Islands” (1843) is an authentic source for the early history of the mission.

    Ho'omalimali and the Succession Model of Political Inheritance in Hawai'i: A Study of the Electoral Dominance of Americans of Japanese Ancestry in State and Congressional Politics Skyler Allyn Korgel ANS 678H Departmental Honors in Asian Studies The University of Texas at Austin May 2018 Dr. Chiu-Mi Lai Department of Asian Studies Thesis Supervisor Dr. Patricia Maclachlan Department of Government Second Reader Abstract “Ho’omalimali” and the Succession Model of Political Inheritance in Hawai'i: A Study of the Electoral Dominance of Americans of Japanese Ancestry in State and Congressional Politics Author: Skyler Korgel Thesis Supervisor: Dr. Chiu-Mi Lai Second Reader: Dr. Patricia Maclachlan This thesis seeks to discover the underlying causes and factors for the unique political situation in Hawai'i where a minority demographic has been historically dominant. In researching historical and political contexts, as well as institutional and electoral factors, analysis of all these findings has shown a constructed “succession model” behind the dominance of Americans of Japanese Ancestry (AJA) through the Democratic Party. The thesis also examines the implications of the disrupted and further divisive political climate of the Hawai'i Democratic Party since the death of universally respected and revered Senator Daniel Inouye (1924-2012). Senator Inouye’s death brought to an end a political career that spanned nearly six decades, and commenced a new era for Hawai'i political leadership. Quite possibly, this new era has also fractured the succession model. In a 75% minority state, throughout the past 65 years, Americans of Japanese ancestry have managed to gain a stranglehold over the Hawai'i Democratic Party, and therefore the Hawai’i state government itself.
