Kia oti rawa, e!Haare Williams grew up with his Tuhoe grandparents on the shores of Ohiwa Harbour on the East Coast of New Zealand in a te reo world of Tane and Tangaroa, Te Kooti and the old testament, myths and legends and of Nani Wai and curried cockle stew - a world that Haare left behind when he learnt English at school and moved to the city of Auckland.Over the last half-century, through the Maori arts movement, waves of protest and the rise of Maori broadcasting, Haare Williams has witnessed and played a part in the changing shape of Maoridom.

Matariki: The Maori New Year by Libby Hakaraia

$21.00 NZD

Category: Te Reo Māori

This book is an introduction to the star group Matariki. Known in other cultures by names including the Pleiades and the Seven Sisters, Matariki featured strongly in pre-European New Zealand. It marked the beginning of the Māori calendar, and its rising before the sun in late May or early June was gree ted with great festivals. It was used as a guide to planting and harvesting, and was studied by tohunga as an omen which told whether the food-gathering season would be plentiful or lean. Libby Hakaraia includes interviews with astronomers Richard Hall and Vicki Hyde, well known navigator Hekenukumai Busby, and Hapimana Rikihana, who still practises the ancient Māori art of mahi whai, or string patterns. Today more and more people are celebrating the rising of Matariki. For those who wish to join this growing movement, there are suggestions on how to celebrate this Māori New Year - and, most importantly, a guide to finding Matariki in the night sky. Libby Hakaraia is well known as a radio presenter, having co-hosted National Radio's Whenua show with Henare te Ua. Through her television company Kiwa Productions Libby has been associated with several award-winning documentaries. She is currently producing, directing and writing a number of television programmes.
