Mi'kmag legend reading
My goal here is to inspire you to become more familiar with this beautiful canon of stories, and for you to retell them, and perhaps for someone to start a project to translate them back to Mi'kmag, retell and record them.
To Do
- Look for stories relating to the megumawesoo.
- Laurie Lacey (p 72) says "buowin" and "ginap" are evil and good shamans.
If we have a projector: Dan has "Muin And The Seven Hunters" on his Mac background here
- Muin & The Seven Hunters - maybe Red Earth intro version
- Bringing Back Animals https://bonmot.ca/MikmagLegendRelationships/media/Bringing_Back_Animals.pdf#1
- Glooscap and the Megumoowesoo / Mi'kmuessu
- Brother To The Bears https://bonmot.ca/MikmagLegendRelationships/media/Nine_Micmac_Legends/Brother_To_The_Bears.pdf
- Glooscap, Kuhkw, and Coolpujot -- lesser known Glooskap story
- Star Husband
- The Sisters Who Married Stars
- Glooscap's Departure From The Land of the Micmacs https://bonmot.ca/MikmagLegendRelationships/media/Legends_of_the_MicmacsOCR.pdf#page=274
