Songlines are the means of storing and learning knowledges, ancient and modern. They are stories embodied in the land, sea and skies to be remembered and passed on through song, dance, art ceremony, and, most importantly, through attachment to Country.
Like libraries, these vast collections of dynamic information ensured Australia's Indigenous peoples flourished for millennia and continue to do so.
Margo Neale and Lynne Kelly show us, with compelling storytelling and extensive research, how these integrated knowledges are encoded and transmitted to preserve vibrant, thriving and sustainable cultures. Songlines: the Power and the Promise offers to all Australians a remarkable ways of learning, remembering and connecting to each other.
