A Mythological Wrap

Abstract

Connecting myths with prose, as a means of presentation, is the task of the author in writing "A Mythological Wrap." This piece is meant to entice the reader to the underlying lessons which are enshrouded in the oral history of Yukon First Nations people, in a more creative process, rather than strictly in the narrative. The four stories presented are put through a simple analysis of connecting thoughts and reflections and are not intended to be the entire interpretation of each story. The final component is meant to honour the people who have so graciously given their stories, offering their life experiences and wisdom to the collective pool of knowledge acquired in the Yukon for the benefit of future generations.
