商品簡介
Part of a series on historical and contemporary Native America and aimed toward Porter (arts and humanities, U. of Swansea, Wales) writes for a scholarly audience about American indigenous cultural and spiritual relationship with the land, art, and community, and how that reality is often buried by centuries of misperception which can be traced back to colonial attitudes toward and misunderstanding of native cultures. Using the writings of native and non-native thinkers, writers, philosophers, and historians, she attempts to reconcile the cultural reality with colonial misrepresentation, and to show the contemporary value of traditional native approach to land and spirit.
