The Poetry of Place:
Native American Place Names in Ulster County

Evan Pritchard,
Director of the Center
for Algonquin Culture

Wednesday, November 19 - 7pm
Marbletown Community Center

Join us for an educational and fun-filled evening as Professor Evan Pritchard, author and a descendant of the Algonquin-speaking people, presents an illustrated lecture where he will discuss the various layers of poetic meaning in the Native American place names in Ulster County.

Algonquin place names tended towards clever wordplay and purposeful ambiguity since before contact. In fact, some are more like poems than sentences. Frequently, the Dutch joined in the process and reshaped these words to have a similar sound and meaning, but in Dutch. Then in some instances the English did the same to the new Dutch words. While there are Algonquin place names from North Carolina to the Maritimes similar to our own, New York is the only place where one finds these "Double Dutched" place names, literary time capsules for those who want to understand the ancient history of our region. In any case, the exploration of the poetry of place here in Ulster County is a fascinating study.

Professor Evan Pritchard, of Celtic and Algonquin descent, is an author of over twenty critically acclaimed books about Native American culture, including Native New Yorkers, (Council Oak) No Word for Time, (Council Oak) Bird Medicine (Inner Traditions), Native American Stories of the Sacred (Skylight Paths) and the newly released book of poetry, Greetings from Mawenawasic! (Foothills) which incidentally features a poem about Ulster County's poetic place names (and features a poetic Native American place name in the title!) Pritchard studied the Munsee language with Canadian elder Beulah Timothy, and others, the native language of Ulster County, and Old Dutch with Dirk Tang of the Hague, its second language. He has been a professor of Native American Literature at Pace, Marist, and Vassar Colleges, and has lectured at dozens of major universities in Eastern US. He had appeared on the History Channel, Manhattan Cable and MSNBC, to name a few, and has been a guest on hundreds of radio shows, including those on ABC, New Dimensions, Pacifica and NPR networks. His website is algonquinculture.org and features a detailed list of his many books and future lectures.

CLIO'S MUSE
A History Reading Club

Wednesday, October 1
7pm in the Biography Room

The reading selection for September is Blindspot : by A Gentleman in Exile and a Lady in Disguise, a novel of the American Revolution co-written by two notable professors of American History, Jane Kamensky (Brandeis) and Jill Lepore (Harvard). It is a historical romance and murder mystery authentically situated in 18th century America. Set in boisterous Boston on the eve of the American Revolution, Scottish painter Stewart Jameson and his spirited apprentice, Fanny Easton, a fallen woman who has disguised herself as a boy, Francis Weston. When Boston's revolutionary leader, Samuel Bradstreet, dies suddenly on the day Jameson was to paint his portrait, Bradstreet's slaves are accused of murder. Jameson, Weston, and the brilliant doctor Ignatius Alexander set out to determine the truth. What they discover turns topsy-turvy everything you thought you knew about the Founding Fathers.

It is helpful to develop a contextual understanding of the era in which a story is being told. I'd recommend reading a general text of The American Revolutionary period before, or in tandem with, Blindspot. There is a section of "Further Readings" provided by the authors at the end of their novel. If you want a short general history, I would recommend Gordon Wood's The American Revolution: A History or, for a longer, more democratic interpretation, Gary Nash's The Unknown American Revolution: The Unruly Birth of Democracy and the Struggle to Create America.

KNITTING GROUP

Every Saturday
10am-noon

The Stone Ridge Library Knitters meet every Saturday morning from 10am - 12noon. All ages and experience levels can join us and drop-in knitters are also welcome. We each bring our own supplies and do our own work, but one of the best things about us is that whatever obstacle or confusion you might encounter, you're likely to receive as much comment and advice as you need to get where you're going with a project. Some of us can help toward the repair of knitted or crocheted items too.

The group is sociable and lively, and our conversation and sharing is just as wide-ranging as our projects. We are especially interested in the UFOs (Un-Finished Objects) that members bring in and love the show and tell of projects under way and being finished, new or old, simple or complex. Though knitting is our love and mainstay, we graciously adapt ourselves to stray crocheters and those of us who simply must take to the hook when the spirit moves. We share articles, magazines and books on knitting. Donations of yarn to the Library get made up into items for sale at the Library Fair and during the winter holidays for the benefit of the Library. Some of us also knit things for local hospitals or for the U.S. troops.

Patrons Enjoying the Wi-Fi Garden on a late summer afternoon

The Lois Holly Wi-Fi Garden – named after a former Library director – offers patrons one of the only public locations in downtown Stone Ridge to access the Internet. "We've seen patrons standing on our front porch or sitting in our parking lot with portable computers," commented Board of Trustees President Robert Miraldi. "We wanted to provide a more welcoming atmosphere to help people gain Internet access at any time." The Wi-Fi garden is open even during hours when the library is closed. "Many people do not have access in their homes and some weekenders already use us to get their Internet usage," observed Library Director Jody Ford. "We want to make it easier." Last year the Library's website received 66,304 visits, a significant increase over the previous year. The Library currently has nine public computer terminals available in our two buildings, including two computers for small children.
