Native American Literatureselected bibliography, compiled by K.L. MacKay A Brief History of Native American Written Literature The first native American literary texts were offered orally, and they link the earth-surface people with the plants and animals, the rivers and rocks, and all things believed significant in the life of America’s first people. The texts tie Indian people to the earth and its life through a spiritual kinship with the living and dead relatives of Native Americans. Coyote, raven, fox, hawk, turtle, rabbit and other animal characters in the stories are considered by many Native Americans to be their relatives. In the same way, the Plant People are related to Indian people. Oak, maple, pine, cedar, fir, corn, squash, berries and roots are viewed as relatives. The Animal People and Plant People participated in a history before and after the arrival of humans, and this history was kept through the spoken word. There was a similar relationship with the geographical features of the earth. Telling a story and writing a story, even if they are the same story, remembered from generation to generation, are not the same way of preserving the story. The teller and the writer use different faculties of mind, and have different habits and disciplines of language, memory, tradition. Each has a different responsibility to the story, and to the listener or the page. The teller’s relationship to the story and the listener, both at once, is direct. The writer wrestles with the page, with the story, in solitude.

Native American Literature for the Classroom. Compiled by: Sarah Mandziara Native Americans were earliest inhabitants of North America. They enjoyed a strong relationship with the natural world, close-knit social structures, and a vibrant mythology that has largely been forgotten or relegated to brief mention in the history texts of our schools today. I think it is important for students to understand the people that first lived on the land that we do today, void of stereotypes, misconceptions, and false stories. The Native American culture is filled with stories, legends, art, and dance that can engage and develop students into appreciating the beautiful culture and identity that still exists and flourishes today. Picture Books Levine, Ellen. (1999). If you lived with the Iroquois (If You Lived). New York : Scholastic. A beautiful representation of everyday life with the Iroquois Indians. The book is illustrated in full watercolor paintings. Its eighty pages are divided into sections outlining the various activities, customs, and traditional roles of historical Iroquois tribes. This is a great book that will leave students feeling as if they are living in a little part of history with one of America's most influential tribes of its times. Martin, Bill. (1966).

Acceptance Essays Arts Custom Papers English ... Acceptable Use Policy Native American Literature The dominance of western settlers over native Americans has had a huge impact on North America in the past hundred and fifty years. Before Europeans arrived in America, the natives only took what they needed from the land, and lived simple lives. As the foreigners arrived, they saw the new frontier as an unlimited resource on which to leach upon. Within decades of their rendezvous, the white man wiped out almost the whole Indian race, and relocated the remaining to reservations. Many factors could have caused this rapid genocide. There were social, biological, spiritual, and moral differences between the two converging cultures that caused one to overcome another. Studying Native American literature can help us see how these dissimilarities, and what lead to the downfall of the red-man. There is one theory of “social Darwinism” that may account for the conquest of the Native American s . According to this theory if two separately evolved cultures meet, one will prevail over another forcing cultural evolution. Social Darwinism is not always effective because different cultures mix and mingle everyday without one becoming dominant. When white-man met red-man however, it was the survival of the fittest.

Would you like to login? Find by Author/Title Author Title Introduction to our Third Catalog of Native American Literature James Welch A poet and novelist of Blackfoot-Gros Ventre heritage, Welch was one of the most important and accomplished Native American writers of the post-1968 generation. His first three books were published in the Harper and Row Native American Publishing Program and his third novel, Fools Crow , won the Los Angeles Times Award for Fiction for 1986. His book, Killing Custer , was a nonfiction treatment of the Battle of the Little Bighorn as viewed from the Indian perspective. My first poetry class from Hugo was a graduate-level seminar. Most of the other dozen students were older, some were married, some had had careers, others were at loose ends. I was one of the latter. After an undistinguished career as an undergraduate, I was accepted into graduate school (on probation) simply because I was a warm body and the fledgling program needed bodies to fill chairs. It didn't take me long to realize that I was in way over my head. I discovered I didn't know how to write the kinds of poems my classmates wrote. Up to then, my poems had rhymed and were filled with majestic mountains and wheeling gulls. I didn't know the poets they referred to. When Hugo, to provide an example, asked me to look up a poem by Yeats, I wrote "Look up Yates" in my notebook. Finally, out of desperation, Hugo called me into his office and told me to close the door. He told me to sit down, and I knew and dreaded what was coming. "You don't know anything about poems, do you?" I sat for a moment trying to think up a defense for my sorry attempts in class, but nothing came to me, so I said, "No." To my surprise, Hugo said, "That's okay. What

"Just removing obscuring projections from other persons, let alone the world, is demanding psychological work. Yet any increase in understanding of another person, any appreciation of their true nature, requires the removal of our projections upon them. . . . Removal of projections upon family, friends, and neighbors yields a corresponding increase in self-knowledgesomething never bought cheaply or easily. In a similar way, any hard won increase in knowledge of the outer world demands a removal of our projections on the world and correspondingly liberates us and increases our self-knowledge."Victor Mansfield in Synchronicity, Science, and Soul-Making.
