Synopsis Nevārīgītīmañjarī by : Siegfried Lienhard

A productive and highly important branch of Nevari literature is poetry. The songs reflect the thought of the Nevars, their way of life, religious belief, their history and folklore. The greatest possible variety of genres and styles have been included in the present anthology. Most of the songs included, religious hymns as well as folksongs and ballads, are still very popular among Nevars. In order to facilitate reading and consultation, the whole corpus of the songs collected has been grouped into four principle sections, namely Religious Poetry, Songs about Love and Marriage, Epic Poetry, Didactic and Enigmatic Verses. The book contains two appendices. While the first lists the talas and ragas, as they are given in the various anthologies published in Nepal, the Second makes an attempt to transpose two songs into the European system of music. The translations are quite faithful and every effort has been made to preserve the spirit and flavour of the original. Contents Preface, Introduction, Translation, I. Religious Poetry: 1.

Synopsis The Nelson Family by : Cortez Nelson

Excerpt from The Nelson Family: A Compilation From Many Sources of the Nelson Family, in Both England and America Slxteen years ago I began an investigatlon into the orlgln and history of my famlly; Hav1ng no other source from Which I might derlve the Informatlon so needful ln a work of this character, i began with my own immediate fame 11y 11v1ng ln the far west and the traditions which the dlfferent members furnlshed me as to the locatloh of the early members and their families when our Country was flrst settled. I, accord1ngly, took up those tradltions and sift ed each one to its utmost, many of which furnlshed valuble clues from which much benefit was derived, wh11e others proved as Castles ln Spain. From the very outset my highest expectations promised results far beyond any of my Wlldest dreams or fondest hopes. While dlscouragements were few and successes many and unexpected, much that would now be highly valuble and much more appreciated, must for ever remain unwrltten. Why thls must needs ha, way be ex plalned in the destruction of many valuble Records, in War, by flre, rotte1ng With age, loss ln transit, and most of all, the things of 1nterest that were never recorded. Not belng entirely satisfled with the results so far attained, i sub mit the work to others sc}ut1ny, w1th the hope that any no ticeable errors, d1screpen01es or omissions will be over .
