Gagnier De Mendoza Mary Jane
Oaxaca Celebration : Family Food and Fiestas in Teotitlan
Santa Fe: Museum of New Mexico Press 2005. Book. New. Card Covers/Paperback. First Edition. 4to - over 9�" - 12" tall. Almost twenty years ago a young Canadian woman Mary Jane Gagnier travelled through Mexico on a journey of self-exploration. One evening on the zocalo in Oaxaca she met a weaver from the nearby village of Teotitlan del Valle who offered his uncles' help in repairing her broken clarinet. Shortly thereafter the two were married and rather instantly the Ontario native with wanderlust found herself intimately immersed in the culture and traditions of her new home. Fiestas are synonymous with Mexico and daily ceremonial rituals and celebrations are at the center of Oaxaca's spiritual and social life. Gagnier de Mendoza chronicles the festival cycle in Teotitlan a Zapotec village located fifteen miles from the capitol. The fiestas here center on the complex art of hosting whether for family gatherings or religious ceremonies that involves traditional cooking and flower arranging candle making and fireworks. Throughout the year village brass bands regularly line the streets in processions featuring plumed dancers and masked actors. Beginning with Christmas posadas through Fiesta of the Black Christ of Esquipulas pre-wedding and wedding celebrations Lent and Holy Week post-Easter revelry celebrating the patron saints to the conclusion of the festival cycle with Day of the Dead this memoir chronicles the spirit-life of an ancient community that day after day honors its gods as itself. 159pp. Museum of New Mexico Press Paperback

Gail Carson Levine
Fairy Dust And The Quest For The Egg Disney Fairies
<p>Prilla the newest fairy to arrive in Never Land is so odd that Never Land itself isn't certain whether to let her into Fairy Haven. Prilla shakes hands when she meets other fairies and she says "Pleased to meet you" instead of "Fly with you." What's more she calls Tinker Bell Miss Bell. She acts more like a Clumsy than a self-respecting Never fairy should. To make matters worse Prilla doesn't know what her talent is-or if she has one at all. Mother Dove the wisest creature in Never Land thinks Prilla has a talent but even she isn't certain. A diabolical hurricane a selfish fairy Captain Hook snobby mermaids a fierce golden hawk and the evil dragon Kyto combine in a tantalizing elixir that tests Mother Dove's wisdom Tink's courage and Prilla's mettle. Even Clumsy children on the mainland--even readers wherever they may be--play a crucial role in deciding Never Land's fate. Fairy Dust and the Quest for the Egg is written by Newberry Honor-winning author Gail Carson Levine master of the modern fairy tale. It is illustrated in stunning detail by David Christiana.</p> Disney Press paperback

Gaius Valerius Flaccus
The Voyage of the Argo: The Argonautica of Gaius Valerius Flaccus
Baltimore: Johns Hopkins University Press 1999 The story of Jason and the Argonauts and their quest for the Golden Fleece is one of the oldest and most familiar tales in classical literature. Apollonius of Rhodes wrote the best-known version in Greek in the third century B.C.E. The Latin poet Gaius Valerius Flaccus began his own interpretation of the story in the first century of the Christian era but he died before completing it. With The Voyage of the "Argo" the acclaimed poet and translator David Slavitt recovers for modern readers the only surviving work of this little-known writer. The result is an engaging rendition of Jason's adventures of particular interest when compared to the Greek version of the story. While Apollonius' tale offers a subtle psychological study of Medea Valerius Flaccus' achievement is to present Jason as a more complete and compelling heroic figure. Slavitt for one enjoyed the rediscovery immensely -- and he invites his readers to do the same.165p. Has shadow of price sticker on rear boards else as new. 1st US Edition. Hardcover. Fine/No Jacket. Illus. by Translated David R Slavitt. Johns Hopkins University Press hardcover
