Achan: Naskapi Giant Stories by John Peastitute PDF Summary

Book Description: Library-quality hardcover book with dust-jacket. This book of the Achan story cycle is the third book in a series prepared for reading in Naskapi and in English by the Naskapi Development Corporation. John Peastitute (1896-1981) was a Naskapi Elder who was not only well respected as a story-keeper, but also as a storyteller. His repertoire of both tipâchimûna (stories) and âtiyûhkinich (legends) was extensive, and his performances engaging. The tape recordings of his stories that have survived to be preserved, processed and studied are a precious legacy. The Achan stories stories describe a fearsome monster, a cannibal-giant. The accounts in this book are a collection of stories of encounters and interactions with these creatures. The first five are "tipâchimûna", stories that are reported accounts that the narrator heard and re-tells for his audience. The last story in this book is an "âtiyûhkin", a traditional legend or myth, the tale of Achan and The Two Bear Cubs.
