Karapu Lit: Te Rōpū Pukapuka
Baltimore (Tāone me te Rohe), Maryland
KUA WHAKARERE PEA TE KURA I A RĀTOU... engari i whakakahore rātou ki te whakarērea te kura. I te whakarēreatanga o rātou e tō rātou kaiako kāreti, ka whakatau ēnei ākonga me ngā kaipānui pono ki te haere tonu i a rātou anō.
He mea whakamīharo tō kōrero—kōrero mai ki a mātou.
I tīmata mātou i te marama o Hepetema, 2008, i te wā i rēhita ai mātou tētahi rōpū mō tētahi akomanga tuhituhi e waru wiki te roa. He wāhanga tēnei akoranga nō Te Whare Wānanga Matua i te Kāreti Hapori o te Rohe o Baltimore.
I mutu ake mātou i te toru wāhanga ako—mai i te marama o Hepetema ki te marama o Hune, 2009. I whakatapua ia wāhanga ako ki tētahi kaupapa i whiriwhiria e te kaiako:
♦ Nga Reo Putanga
♦ Post Modernism
♦ Ngā tuhinga o Āwherika ki te Tonga.
Na te aha i tupu?
I whakatau tā mātou kaiako kia kaua e whakaako i te akoranga i te ngahuru o te tau 2009, nō reira i kī mai tētahi rōpū o ō mātou hoa akomanga kia haere tonu mātou ko mātou anake.
E hia i "noho tonu ki te huarahi" ki te kī?
I tīmata mātou me te iwa o ngā mema o te akoranga. Kua eke ki te tekau mā tahi ngā mema inaianei.
Kōrero mai ki a mātou i tāu i pānui ai i ngā wā tata nei.

He kōrero tino pai?
Te Oranga Pūrākau o AJ Fikry nā Grabrielle Zevin i ārahi ki tētahi matapakinga e toru ngā wāhanga: me pēhea te whiriwhiri i ngā pukapuka hei whakauru ki tētahi toa pukapuka tūmataiti, te urupare a ngā kiripuaki pakiwaitara o te pukapuka ki tā rātou e pānui ana, me te tipu whaiaro o ngā kiripuaki mā te pānui me te matapaki.
I tino hono atu ngā mema ki ngā kiripuaki o roto tetahi nā Alice McDermott, ā, nā tēnei i ārahi ki te whakapuaki i ngā wheako whaiaro.
He Whaia hipi mohoao nā Haruki Murakami rāua ko Pō Oracle nā Paul Auster i ārahi ngā kōrero mō ngā tuhinga o muri i te ao hou—ina koa te āhua o te maioha o te hunga i tauhou ki tēnei momo tuhinga hou ki ngā rerekētanga o te hanganga.
Nā te pānui me te matapaki i ā mātou pukapuka rongonui (Wallace Stegner rāua ko Somerset Maugham) i whai wāhi ai te rōpū ki te tirotiro i ngā rerekētanga o ngā momo tuhituhi i roto i ngā tekau tau, me te matapaki hoki he aha te wehewehenga o tētahi pukapuka rongonui, he pukapuka "tuhituhi" rānei, me tētahi pakiwaitara rongonui.
Koki o te Whakanoho, ko tā mātou pukapuka tuarua nā Stegner (ko te tuatahi Te Manu Mātakitaki), i arahi ki tētahi matapakinga pai mō ngā āhuatanga ōrite/rerekētanga i waenga i ngā pukapuka e rua me ā mātou kitenga mō tō mātou mōhio haere ki te momo tuhituhi a Stegner.
Ko ētahi atu kōrero pai i whakaurua Te Wahine ki Runga, He Wahine Kāore e Hiahiatia, a Ngā Wahine o Los Alamos.
He rārangi whakamiharo. Kei te whai koe i ētahi paearu mō te whiriwhiri i āu pukapuka?
E ngana ana mātou kia kanorau ngā pukapuka—ngā pukapuka rongonui, ngā pakiwaitara hītori, ngā pukapuka tino hokohoko, ko ētahi pukapuka pono-pūrākau, me ngā pukapuka nā ngā kaituhi o ētahi atu ahurea i tuhi.
Me pēhea tāu whiriwhiri?
He tukanga manapori tēnei. I te mutunga o ia wāhanga ako, ka tū he wā whakarite e rua hāora te roa. I mua i te wā whakarite, ka tukuna atu e ngā mema takitahi he īmēra ki te katoa o te rōpū me ngā taitara pea me ngā hononga ki ngā arotake. Mā tēnei, i te wā e huihui ai mātou mō te wā whakarite, kua arotakehia e mātou ngā whakaaro o tētahi ki tētahi.
I te hui, ka tūtohu ia mema i ngā pukapuka e rua hei whakaaroaro mā rātou. Kātahi ka pōti te katoa mō ngā pukapuka e rima e hiahia ana rātou ki te pānui (10 wiki/2 wiki mō ia pukapuka, arā, e 5 ngā pukapuka katoa i ia wāhanga ako). Ko ngā pukapuka e rima e whiwhi ana i te nuinga o ngā pōti ko ngā pukapuka e pānuihia ana e tātou.
Ko wai te kaiārahi i ā koutou kōrero?
I muri i tā mātou whiriwhiri i ngā pukapuka me te whakarite i ngā hui, ka whakatauhia e mātou ko wai hei whakahaere i ia kōrero. Tērā pea he kaiārahi kotahi ... he kaiārahi tahi rānei ... he "porowhita tuhituhi" rānei, he tūranga tō ia mema i roto i te kōrero.
Kei te whakamahi anō koe i tētahi Whakatakotoranga Kōrero?
Kua whakawhanakehia e mātou he whakatakotoranga paerewa hei whakarato i tētahi kaupapa matua mā te kaiārahi. Kei roto i ngā kaupapa ko:
♦ Kaituhi haurongo ♦ Kaupapa ♦ Nga tohutoro tuhituhi ♦ pūāhua ♦ Wā hītori ♦ Te momo tuhituhi ♦ Te hanganga o te pukapuka ♦ Te papamuri ahurea o te kōrero ♦ Ngā arotake arohaehae o mua.
He ture karapu āu?
♦ Ko tā mātou ture matua ko te kōrero a te tangata kotahi i ia wā. I ētahi wā, ka kōrero te tangata i runga ake i te tangata kotahi, engari ka tūpato mātou ki te whakatinana i tēnei ture.
♦ Ka whakapau kaha mātou ki te whai whakaaro pono mō ngā pukapuka. Ina he tirohanga whaiaro ā te tangata, ka tohua e mātou he tirohanga whaiaro, ā, ka tono kia whakamāramahia te tirohanga a te tangata.
♦ Ahakoa ka kawea mai e mātou ngā take whaiaro e pā ana ki ngā kōrero o roto i te pukapuka, ā, ka whakawhānui ake i ēnei, kāore mātou e whakapau i ō mātou wā wānanga ki ngā take whaiaro kāore e pā tika ana ki te kōrero pukapuka. Ka rongoatia ēnei mō ā mātou hui tina i muri i te hui.
Ā, e kōrero ana koe mō te ariā tuhituhi?
Āe. Ka ngana mātou ki te wehe i tētahi wāhanga ako i ia wāhanga ako mō te ariā tuhituhi. Ko tā mātou e kī nei he kaupapa e pārekareka ana ki te rōpū, he tangata takitahi rānei, he mea rānei i puta ake i te wā o te kōrero a te rōpū e hiahia ana mātou ki te tūhura hohonu ake.
He taumata teitei rawa te rangahau me te kōrero i roto i ēnei kōrero. He maha ngā wā, kotahi te kaupapa ka puta ake ai ngā kaupapa ā muri ake nei. Kātahi ka whakamahia e te rōpū te mātauranga i riro mai i roto i te kōrero mō ngā ariā tuhituhi, ā, ka whakamahia taua mātauranga ki ngā kōrero pukapuka ā muri ake nei.
Ko ngā kaupapa i kōrerohia e mātou ko ♦ Ngā Huarahi Tātari Pūrākau ♦ Ngā Pūāhua Iti ♦ Kaituhi i Whakahuatia ♦ Ngā Momo Rerekē o te Arotakenga Pānui, inā koa te Whakatakotoranga, te Whakahoutanga, me te Ariā Whakautu a te Pānui.
I te nuinga o te wā, me pēhea e whakaahua ai koe i tō karapu?
Ahakoa he wāhine mātou katoa (i mua he tāne te hunga i tae mai), he rerekē te pakeke o tō mātou rōpū. Kei waenganui i te 60 me te 80 tau te pakeke o ō mātou tau.
Ko te nuinga, ki te kore ko te katoa o mātou, he tauira kua puta i te whare wānanga, ā, i mahi katoa mātou i tētahi wā. Ko ētahi o ngā mema he tauira Ingarihi, engari ko te nuinga o te rōpū kāore i te tohunga ki te reo Ingarihi, ā, e whakamahi ana i te rōpū hei huarahi whakawhānui i ō rātou mōhiotanga ki ngā tuhinga.
