Nature and Adventure |
| Swathed
in the romance of pirates, voodoo and Mardi Gras, LOUISIANA
is undeniably special. Its history is barely on nodding terms
with the view that America was the creation of the Pilgrim
Fathers; its way of life is proudly set apart. This is the
land of the rural, French-speaking Cajuns (descended from
the Acadians, eighteenth-century French-Canadian refugees),
who live in the prairies and swamps in the southwest of the
state, and the Creoles of jazzy, sassy New Orleans . (The
term Creole was originally used to define anyone born in the
state to French or Spanish colonists - famed in the nineteenth
century for their masked balls, family feuds and duels - as
well as native-born, French-speaking slaves, but has since
come to define anyone or anything native to Louisiana, and
in particular its black population.) Louisiana's spicy home-cooked
food , regular festivals and lilting French-based dialect
- and above all its music ( jazz, R&B, Cajun and its bluesy
black counterpart, zydeco) - draw from all these cultures.
