He often went for comedy, or the very stirring. Still a wonderful memory for me.Rosemary Nissen-Wadehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05913841031559499568noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4139625267522039683.post-69284292588509382622016-09-20T07:45:01.930-04:002016-09-20T07:45:01.930-04:00Thank you all for your comments and to Rosemary fo...Thank you all for your comments and to Rosemary for posting it. I have subsequently written a number of poems on this topic, indeed it is a subject I return to faily often. Poetry before writing, along with song, dance, music, art and possibly architecture, was a way of encoding knowledge and passing it on correctly. If the metre was wrong then the memory had lapsed. I would love to see more poetry learned in schools, it's a great loss never to have the joy of memorising something correctly and being able to recite it. It should of course be meaningful and have great rhythm.Susan Hawthornehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02333515454554905385noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4139625267522039683.post-79745722126538405772016-09-18T02:18:25.610-04:002016-09-18T02:18:25.610-04:00Perhaps because we think the written word is more ...Perhaps because we think the written word is more permanent? because writing is one of our greatest inventions?<br /><br />another excellent "musing", and certainly a thought provoker! also enjoyed Susan's poem. :)<br />dsnake1https://www.blogger.com/profile/08724264906690080704noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4139625267522039683.post-84263066543089135312016-09-17T23:20:27.168-04:002016-09-17T23:20:27.168-04:00There was a time I used to learn by heart those I ...There was a time I used to learn by heart those I planned to speak, but I wouldn't like to try now!

It's good to have the writing, and it would also be good to exercise and train our memories more – as people did even as recently as when I was growing up. Perhaps the proliferation of knowledge has something to do with it – just too much, now, to hope to keep in one's head.Rosemary Nissen-Wadehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05913841031559499568noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4139625267522039683.post-13164503917033807182016-09-17T08:20:43.034-04:002016-09-17T08:20:43.034-04:00hummm.....interesting, and causes one to consider....hummm.....interesting, and causes one to consider...but is "writing" not like the basket woven, it does make our tasks easier. I think about the baby on the back, and gathering the precious, seeds, and other ediables. How revolutionary and how extrodinary to suddenly have a basket. I think that way about writing. Suddenly we can write it down, we can take it with us, we can share it, keep it when we forget. And it is all thanks to the discoveries of women. Now we can "count" the ways. Perhaps memory should belong to women?<br /><br />Still, I think the practice of memory has been lost to an extent. I think students of times gone by, used to memorize many things, and the "organ" of memory was better. Children should have the opportunity to memorize more. For me, and of course I blame it on age, I can't remember what I have written down, often before I finish writing it. Thank you Rosemary and Susan, for giving us something wonderful to think about.annell4https://www.blogger.com/profile/07629830133868270690noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4139625267522039683.post-42424165641700532152016-09-16T21:51:11.343-04:002016-09-16T21:51:11.343-04:00I always admire the spoken word artistes who stand...I always admire the spoken word artistes who stand in front an audience and just talk through volumes.

But perhaps we can recover some things. Indigenous Australians have a practice of deep listening (called by some people Dadirri) which is worth engaging in. Some brought up in the old ways are considered stupid by members of the dominant culture – because they speak little and slowly. They are listening and processing deeply before they speak. We can learn this.Rosemary Nissen-Wadehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05913841031559499568noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4139625267522039683.post-27054247670292476942016-09-16T19:38:05.835-04:002016-09-16T19:38:05.835-04:00Very interesting observations, Susan.

It was also a teaching tool, meant to help future generations to value those actions which would nurture that land and all of its inhabitants. That would bring about a higher quality of life for all. Scripture tells us that "without a vision the people shall perish." The story-tellers, oral-traditionalists, and yes, we poetry writers, all share that same energy. And because we do, we should never forget that there is an element of the sacred handed down to us through all of those generations. Whew! Thought provoking, yes. Thank you Rosemary.

(...What a great new feature & topic to ponder. (And, yes, I enjoyed Susan Hawthorne's poem.) I do think there is something to be said for oral tradition. It amazes me really how much had been handed down before there was written language. I think this passing orally might even be a skill which has been pretty much lost, as we have relied so heavily on recording things of importance in writing. I do wonder how we can somehow meld oral tradition with written poetry. Perhaps there is a way. Thanks, Rosemary & Susan Hawthorne, for making us think.Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07366010389846904663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4139625267522039683.post-78283780235879880022016-09-16T11:16:23.155-04:002016-09-16T11:16:23.155-04:00Thought provoking, indeed.

Maybe the media will help us connect in what once was a tribal tradition, maybe PROTEST will--for example among the indigenous peoples gathered to block the Dakota access pipeline on the Standing Rock reservation in the USA. In my own life, I know this only in the folk song tradition, songs that are gathered and then written and replayed. This is what some 60's rock and roll picked up and played with in new ways. OK, well, Woodstock didn't do it, but we still have Joni Mitchell's song about it.

How I love this feature: the marvellous poem itself, the poet, and your musings on oral traditions, song lines (I LOVE song lines, which interest me deeply). You ask a very pertinent question. How can we incorporate more of the old poetic traditions into our work? I see a prompt idea there. Bravo, Rosemary.
