Description

Indian TalesHailed by Ezra Pound as the "American Ovid" and renowned as a linguist and a self described "amateur anthropologist," Jaime de Angulo drew on his forty years among the Pit River tribe of California to create the amalgam of fiction, folklore, tall tales, jokes, ceremonial ritual, and adventure that is Indian Tales. He first wrote these stories to entertain his children, borrowing freely from the worlds of the Pit, and also of the Miwok, Pomo, and

Hailed by Ezra Pound as the "American Ovid" and renowned as a linguist and a self-described "amateur anthropologist," Jaime de Angulo drew on his forty years among the Pit River tribe of California to create the amalgam of fiction, folklore, tall tales, jokes, ceremonial ritual, and adventure that is Indian Tales. He first wrote these stories to entertain his children, borrowing freely from the worlds of the Pit, and also of the Miwok, Pomo, and Karok. Here are the adventures of Father Bear, Mother Antelope, the little boy Fox, and, of course, Old Man Coyote in a time when people and animals weren't so very far apart. The author's intent was not so much to rer anthropologically faithful translations-though they are here-as to create a magical world fueled by the power of storytelling while avoiding the dangers for the romantic and picturesque. True to the playful and imaginative spirit he portrays, de Angulo mischievously recommends to readers: "When you find yourself searching for some mechanical explanation, if you don't know the answer, invent one. When you pick out some inconsistency or marvelous improbability, satisfy your curiosity like the old Indian folk: 'Well, that's the way they tell that story. I didn't make it up '"

Seamless Quality for Larger Projects!
Size: 8.5''x14'', Size: 8.5''x14''
I recently ventured into the world of sublimation printing, and my experience with the A-SUB Sublimation Paper in the 8.5x14 inch size has been nothing short of exceptional. This paper has quickly become my go-to choice, delivering outstanding image quality and offering the added convenience of a larger size for seamless, seam-free projects. The image quality produced by the A-SUB Sublimation Paper is truly impressive. Colors come out vibrant, details are sharp, and the overall clarity is unmatched. Whether I'm working on intricate designs or bold graphics, this paper consistently delivers results that exceed my expectations. It has become an integral part of ensuring my sublimation projects stand out with professional-grade quality. The 8.5x14 inch size of this sublimation paper is a game-changer for larger projects. Gone are the days of piecing together smaller sheets to create a cohesive design. The larger canvas not only accommodates bigger images but also eliminates seam lines, providing a smooth and continuous surface for my creations. It's incredibly convenient, saving both time and effort in the printing and pressing process.
