    Extractions: spite his missionary and Christian learning. In episode V we see the narrator turn himself in and question his faith and afterlife. He is not afraid to face it because he has lived torn between two cultures and faith and has ended pleasing neither nor himself. The importance of seeing all of these episodes, each with its different mini-theme is because they all tie together to demonstrate the overarching theme of the story. This theme is how difficult it is to find self-satisfaction and authentic external belonging when one is torn between two cultures, two lifestyles, and two religions. It destroys the narrator and leaves him awaiting his death in confusion. In Stephen Crane's The Bride Comes to Yellow Sky, we are treated to another episodically structured story. In these four episodes we are witness to the story of Yellow Sky sheriff Jack Potter . Potter has taken himself a bride in San Antonio , a woman neither very pretty nor very young. She is a woman who looks as if she cooks and will dutifully cook. Though he and his bride enjoy a nice if awkward train ride to Yellow Sky, Potter is concerned in episode I that he might have invoked the disapproval of the inhabitants of Yellow Sky because he did not dutifully discuss

Despite this, very few such novels are accepted as part of the broader American literary canon. Vital reading for scholars of Native American Literature, this book will also provide good grounding in the subject for those with an interest in American and twentieth century literature more generally. 20th Century Literature Post-Colonial Studies Many of our textbooks and course books have companion websites offering additional resources to educators and students.

Home Page Learning and Teaching Strategies in dealing with Native American Oral Literatures Andrew Wiget is a distinguished scholar in this field - note the bibliographical entries below. Here are some of his comments: Culture is a system of beliefs and values through which a group of people structure their experience of the world. By working with this definition of culture, which is very close to the way current criticism understands the impact of ideology upon literature, we can begin to pluralize our notion of the world and understand that other peoples can organize their experience in different ways, and dramatize their experience of the world through different symbolic forms. If culture is a system of beliefs and values by which people organize their experience of the world, then it follows that forms of expressive culture such as these (creation) myths should embody the basic beliefs and values of the people who create them. These beliefs and values can be roughly organized in three areas: (1) beliefs about the nature of the physical world; (2) beliefs about social order and appropriate behavior; and (3) beliefs about human nature and the problem of good and evil.

    Extractions: var base_url = "http://www.lotsofessays.com/"; "THE RESERVATION" AND " LAKOTA WOMAN." We have finally come around to calling them " Native American s " instead of Indians. But, we forget that the various tribes were here on this continent long before Eric the Red of Columbus or Cortez, or any European arrived in the so-called "New World". We have also forgotten the needs of these people, and their right to live in dignity and freedom, and, without that, it is no wonder they rebel and angrily fire shots at places like Wounded Knee "I am Mary Brave Bird" is how "Lakota Woman" begins. "After I had my baby during the siege of Wounded Knee they gave me a special name- Ohikita Win, Brave Woman." ( Crow Dog 1990 3) And, there is no doubt about the fact that this is a book about the life of a young Native American woman who could, no doubt, use all sorts of Anglicized names to identify her. Proudly she says "I am". Not "My name is", or "Let me introduce myself". No, it is "I am" and it is the strong steely resolve of which she is made. The book begins with a Sioux proverb (she is Sioux, and, as she says, "it is not easy") "A nation is not conquered until the hearts of its women are on the groundà" Crow Dog 1990 3) She has not let her heart touch the ground, but went through more difficult times than anyone in our day and age should have to endure.

    Extractions: In Judeo-Christian narratives you have God who created the heavens and the earth. The earth was without form and void, and darkness was upon the face of the deep; and the Spirit of God was moving over the face of the waters. So God created light, and there was light. God saw that the light was good and decided to separate the light from the darkness. God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And there was evening and there was morning, one day. On the second day God created Heaven. He created Heaven by separating the midst of waters, and that separated the waters from the waters. And it was so. On the third day God gathered the waters under Heaven into one place and made it into dry land. God now created Earth and the water that he had gathered he called it the Sea’s and he seen that it was good. Since it was good he put forth vegetation, plants, seeds, and fruit trees . On the fourth day, God decided to separate the day from the night, which would create days and years. He then created two great lights, the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night in which he made the stars to rule over the day and night. God saw it a

    Extractions: Did you know that the Native American s created the very first literature? Theytold stories that used very consistent ideas. They used a lot of personification, andanthropomorphism. In almost every story they told, animals or gods portrayed humancharacteristics. Many of their stories explained some type of natural phenomenon . Theirstories also included a happy ending, and the theme of good over evil. These three ideasare the most important characteristics of Native American oral literature . First, personification and anthropomorphism are heavily used in Native American literature. A good example of this is in “Why Possum’s Tail is Bare�. “ ‘Oh yes,’ Possumreplied. ‘I cannot miss the dance. I must show off my beautiful tail so everyone canadmire me!’ �(Possum, 53). The possum clearly acts and talks like a human. In “Coyoteand Buffalo�, the Buffalo and Coyote are smoking a pipe. This is an obvious human Then the woman began to walk in a circle around it, moving in the direction thatthe sun goes. Every time shebaked a cake it came out larger and larger with smaller and smaller amounts of dough. The theme good over evilis portrayed in each of these stories. The three most important characteristics of

Are critical frameworks developed by non-Natives applicable across cultures, or do they reinforce colonialist power and perspectives? Is it appropriate and useful to downplay tribal differences and instead generalize about Native writing and storytelling as a whole?
