Subject The topic of the resource Deforestation -- Haiti Haiti -- Religion Catholic Church -- Haiti Vodou Haiti Description An account of the resource “Vodou … The Soul of the People,” an excerpt from Jacques Stéphen Alexis’ “The Musician Trees” Callaloo: Vol. 27, No. 3, Summer 2004 Published by the Johns Hopkins University Press English translation by Carrol F. Coates … The night was marked by an exceptional aura—a night that was coal black, sidereal, looming, and sprinkled with stars. Caressing the earth soothingly and without the slightest sound, the nocturnal breeze was almost ethereal. Framing the entrance to the Nan-Remanbrans sanctuary, the bare, swelling boles of two flamboyants formed enormous, athletically muscled thighs. The powerful branches inter-twined like pairs of human limbs with massive biceps, knotted knees, twisted calves, herculean bulges-trees that were virtually human, monstrous titans brandishing thirty arms and twenty legs. A crowd of horses and mules snorted along the fences as other animals kept arriving over the creviced roads. The papalwa, priests young and old, kept crowding in with an aura of mystery enveloping their heads. A great white towel, sparkling immaculately, was displayed in the very middle of the gate. Dressed in a white robe with a blue sash tied around her waist, the “Empress “was welcoming those arriving. This was Madame Ange Desameaux herself, the buxom wife of the tax collector, an ounsi, a servant of Manbo-Nanan, the spirit of wisdom and of azure, the mother of all the Grenadier spirits. Standing in the dust with bare feet, she was silently welcoming them with a double handshake and leading them across the courtyard to the sanctuary. Ayizan-the wife of Atibon Legba and the spirit of sweet water, markets, gateways, and highways, the chief goddess of the orthodox Arada Olympus-was lighting a fire in the great hearth a few steps from the temple. Close by Bwadòm, Dada, his aging wife, was taking care of other business. Their granddaughter Harmonise was blowing on the fire beneath a great humming cauldron of boiling water for coffee. Standing with her black face over the flames, glowing sparks were burning her tender, resplendent face: there were ruddy spots around her delicate, sharp little nose, her swelling cheeks were golden, a blue luminosity shone beneath her almond-shaped eyes, and streams of light played over her bare, skinny little arm, wrapped around Dada’s leg … — Pages 621–628 Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Alexis, Jacques Stéphen, 1922-1961.

Coates explains that: Merely to place these natural phenomena in a semiological category or “mythical” or “allegorical” characters is to miss the point. This is rather, pure “marvelous realism” as conceived by Alexis in the wake of Carpentier. It is the reality of the world as experienced by the Haitian people, a “marvelous” way of apprehending reality, which is to say that it is a form of psychological or spiritual vision. — From the introduction Carrol F. Coates’ translation provides readers, new to Jacques Stéphen Alexis, with an extensive introduction to his literary work, with sections on the cultural and political background of Alexis’ time, the reception and significance of his literary works, descriptions of characters, the multilingual dimension of the text (six in total), and religion. Finally, the book also includes an extensive glossary of words and a guide to Kreyòl pronunciation. Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Alexis, Jacques Stéphen, 1922-1961.
