Beskrivelse af Pikoi And Other Legends Of The Island Of Hawaii
Pikoi And Other Legends Of The Island Of Hawaii is a collection of traditional Hawaiian stories written by Mary Kawena Pukui. The book is divided into three parts, each containing several stories that have been passed down through generations of Hawaiian culture. The first part of the book focuses on the legendary figure of Pikoi, a warrior who was known for his bravery and strength. The stories in this section detail his battles and adventures, as well as his relationships with other important figures in Hawaiian mythology. The second part of the book features stories about other important figures in Hawaiian culture, including the goddess Pele and the demigod Maui. These stories explore the origins of various natural phenomena, such as volcanoes and mountains, and offer insights into the beliefs and values of Hawaiian society. The final part of the book contains stories that are more lighthearted in nature, exploring themes such as love, humor, and trickery. These tales offer a glimpse into the everyday lives of Hawaiian people and the importance of storytelling in their culture. Overall, Pikoi And Other Legends Of The Island Of Hawaii is a fascinating and informative book that provides a unique window into the rich cultural heritage of Hawaii.
