People of the World: Cultures and Traditions, Ancestry and Identity , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1120min
From the heart of National Geographic comes this expansive guide to the clans, tribes, ethnicities, and peoples of the world. Organized in keeping with our knowledge of the migration of human groups through history, with statistics and a cultural portrait of each ethnic group, People of the World becomes a fascinating round-the-world tour of customs and traditions, as well as a go-to source for background information to round out one's own family history. From the Tuvans of Siberia to the Samoans and Tahitians of Polynesia, from the Mapuche of Chile to the Sami of Scandinavia, 222 of the world's 10,000-plus ethnic groups are featured. Some were chosen because of their commonality as ancestors to many; others were chosen because their numbers are dwindling, and soon their cultures may become extinct. ungekürzt. Language: English.

Navigators Forging a Culture and Founding a Nation Volume II, Navigators Founding a Christian Nation in Polynesia (eBook, ePUB)
This book offers a complete history and culture of the Samoans and Manu'ans, chronicled in a new narrative, thus giving a new perspective on reality. It's an Orator Chief's treatise covering over 3000 years of history and culture, reimagined through the paradigm of data analytics methodology. Told by an expert in the oral mythology and written history of the Polynesian Archipelago, both English and Samoan, this historiographical account makes use of the physical sciences-archeology, geophysics, ethnology, and anthropology-as well as the social sciences-the psychology and the sociology of Samoan and Manu'an human psyche and cultural norms-to evidence the evolutionary development of the culture and the national brand identity. Major changes in Samoan and Manu'an culture and history were caused by paradigm shift disruptions from the introduction of Christianity and colonialism by the Europeans-defining moments in the lives of the Samoans and Manu'ans. Exploring this, the Orator Chief author uses a linear timeline, covering periods of family genealogies and their respective generations, corroborated with the deep oral history and mythologies, to arrive at an ancient history, reimagined. The historical events and actors are memorialized locally in the oral history of thousands of years, supported by documented writings from the missionaries in the middle 1800s. All this is thoroughly chronicled in this treatise. This history also draws from the web-network of Samoan and Manu'an family inter-marriages which corroborate the time-periods, generations, and ages. This is the first time the over 3000-year history has been expressed in time-periods with family ancestry and connections, corroborated by archeological evidence, cultural praxis, and oral and local legends. For example, the time-period of the existence and origin of Tagaloalagi, a deity (or god) of Manu'a and Samoa and later across all Polynesia, shows the transformation process from deity, to demigod, to warrior Chief, to Orator, to the birthing of a foundational family of Samoa and Manu'a, leading to the time-period of Tuimanu'a, TuiAtua, TuiA'ana, and later the founding of the Malietoa dynasty. Putting the history into time-periods affords a parallel aerial view of Samoan and Manu'an history as compared to the history of other world societies. This account includes an analysis of the incredible transformation undertaken by the Samoans and Manu'ans to embrace Christianity, for they believed it was prophesied by the Warrior Chieftess demigod Nafanua, to await their impending kingdom from Heaven, so that, today, Samoa and Manu'a are 99.9% Christian. Their history, culture, and transformation all shed light on the modern world, as we face our global need for transformation and cultural understanding, in an age of rapid technological advances, climate change, and multinational business ventures affecting the whole of our world.- Shop: buecher

Tropic of Football: The Long and Perilous Journey of Samoans to the NFL , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 694min
Longlisted for the PEN/ESPN Award “Everything that’s rousing and distressing about block-and-tackle football is encompassed in Tropic of Football...illuminating.” (Newsday) How a tiny Pacific archipelago is producing more players - from Troy Polamalu to Marcus Mariota - for the NFL than anywhere else in the world, by an award-winning sports historian Football is at a crossroads, its future imperiled by the very physicality that drives its popularity. Its grass roots - high school and youth travel program - are withering. But players from the small South Pacific American territory of Samoa are bucking that trend, quietly becoming the most disproportionately overrepresented culture in the sport. Jesse Sapolu, Junior Seau, Troy Polamalu, and Marcus Mariota are among the star players to emerge from the Samoan islands, and more of their brethren suit up every season. The very thing that makes them so good at football - their extraordinary internalization of discipline and warrior self-image - makes them especially vulnerable to its pitfalls, including concussions and brain injuries. Award-winning sports historian Rob Ruck travels to the South Seas to unravel American Samoa’s complex ties with the United States. He finds an island blighted by obesity, where boys train on fields blistered with volcanic pebbles wearing helmets that should have been discarded long ago, incurring far more neurological damage than their stateside counterparts and haunted by Junior Seau, who committed suicide after a vaunted 20-year NFL career, unable to live with the demons that resulted from chronic traumatic encephalopathy. Tropic of Football is a gripping, bittersweet history of what may be football’s last frontier. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Paul Heitsch.
