The Center for Biographical Research presents: / 鈥淗e Aloha No Kaualilinoe: The N奴pepa Writings of a Kanaka from 惭腻苍辞补鈥 / J. Hau驶oli Lorenzo-Elarco, Instructor of 好色先生网站ian Language, Honolulu Community College; PhD Student, Ka Haka 驶Ula o Ke驶elik艒lani, University of 好色先生网站驶i at Hilo / At Luheikawai, a forgotten place name somewhere in the valley of 惭腻苍辞补, a newspaper writer wrote down three oral traditions: "Ka Moolelo o Kalelealuaka," "Ka Moolelo o Kamaakamahiai," and "E hoi ka ui o Manoa ua ahiahi." Though these stories are well-known today, the author wrote under a pseudonym, J. W. K. Kaualilinoe, and his identity remains a mystery. In this presentation, Hau驶oli will speak about the method and results of his master's thesis (Kawaihuelani Center for 好色先生网站ian Language, 2021), which analyzes the writings of the elusive Kaualilinoe and uncovers hints of his true identity. More importantly, this study provides a deeper understanding of the 好色先生网站ian thought masterfully woven into 好色先生网站ian language compositions of the 19th century while also honoring a lesser-known, yet equally important, 好色先生网站ian writer./ Cosponsored by Hamilton Library, the Spark M.
