Chant

For the most part of the story of the White Turtle, the audience reveres and admires the breathtaking spectacle of the images Lola Basyang’s chant produced. However, as time elapsed, and the curiosity of these Westernized people slowly transformed into the urge to legitimize what was transpiring in front of them, they started viewing such a serene art form as something negative just because it is, to them, incomprehensible and illogical. Because of the difference in culture and beliefs between…

sports team and also used for merchandising. The mascot and team name controversy came about because of sports teams using Native American names and symbols for their mascots and team names (Wulf, 2014). During a football game, Indian dress, songs and chants, dance and sacred traditions were used. There are two conflicting viewpoints surrounding the controversy. One viewpoint believes that keeping Native American mascots and team names honors Native people, supports nostalgic feelings, and…

by the powers I had acquired, I decided to travel back in time to one of my parents darkest moments: their miscarriage. My mission was to travel back in time and save my deceased youngest brother. I held the ticket above my head and recited the chant that was inscripted on the gold platted front. “Mighty Itzamná, I Salvador the human, founder of your ticket summon you. Take me to the summer of 1996.” An electrifying, odious…

eardrums. The band began their first song and the arena was covered in people jumping up and down and screaming from every angle. It was an incredible experience. At first the concert started out really crazy, and then began to slow down. Finally, the chant slowed back down again, and people’s voices began to dwindle. It was very clear everyone enjoyed the concert. The booming of the bass, the wonderful voice of the singer, the haunting melody of the guitars, and the happiness of the…

on the evidence of two teenage would-be eyewitnesses, Maynard Chant (who was on probation at the time) and John Pratico (whose psychiatrist later testified that he was prone to self-congratulatory delusions) (AIDWYC, 2014). Therefore, both witnesses gave two different statements to the police, whereas police were certain the boy’s version of the crime to their concept was that Marshall had stabbed Seale. It was largely because of Chant and Pratico’s perjured testimony, and because of the…

After that a chant of “Yes We Can” fills the video and rings in the audience’s ear. The yes we can chant is a propaganda technique of loaded words. The yes we can is also a vivid way Obama makes the average people feel not so average. Instead of saying yes I can, I can rebuild America Obama rhetorically says…

thunder ripping through the sky, the ball traveling at the speed of light as it soars through the air, seeming to come straight towards me. The outfielder makes a diving catch, the pop of his glove echoing throughout the arena. Once again, the war chant electrifies through the arena after this amazing catch. The game is coming to an end, but no one is anxious to leave the marvelous stadium, where they feel at home in a way. Attending a Braves game makes one feel as if they are surrounded by…

same traditions and customs fully over a long period of time which somehow they distinguished themselves from other European culture and religion. As a result, the music in Judaism in Europe kept alive. This religious music mostly knows as liturgical chant secrete songs in synagogue typically in Yiddish- the old language of Hebrew back then.

a journey of souls, and may relate to a root word meaning ‘to take up a path’.” The Huron’s believed that it was the cry of souls emitted from themselves as they took the remains from the burial platforms to the ossuaries. If they did not do this chant during the march they would suffer backache until they die. The Huron’s would also referred the feast of the dead as “the kettle.” Every few years they would move the skeletons, and even bodies of the deceased to a common grave pit. They would…

through the monasteries and convents. There will always be a way for you to be cured if you are hurt if you chose to move to Constantinople. As a Christian, the people also believe that religious sacraments are part of life. The people pray to saints, chant the sacred rights, and study the bible that is translated…
