具体描述

Since the arrival of Europeans on American shores, Native peoples have recounted stories about their encounters with the invading and colonizing outsiders. Nevertheless, the vast majority of the published narratives about the colonization of Indian peoples and lands have been framed and controlled by European and, later, Euroamerican chroniclers. After historical overviews of the early years of Native American and, specifically, Navajo ethnography, the greater part of the volume introduces a method that enables the reading of editorially reorganized ethnographic texts as a means of accessing and listening to informants' rich stories.The central chapters discuss the well-known volume "Son of Old Man Hat: A Navaho Autobiography." They question the extent to which the stories used for the text were actually about the storyteller's life. Once hailed as exemplary ethnography, Brill de Ramrez shows that "Son of Old Man Hat" is, in fact, just the opposite. The volume concludes with an introduction of ethnographic work in Navajo country that has been distinguished for its reliability, accuracy, and authenticity. These collections were primarily initiated from within the tribal community and produced through collaborative relationships.Brill de Ramrez demonstrates beneficial folklore tools for postcolonial study of colonial ethnography--thereby enabling readers to access and listen to the storytelling voices of generations of indigenous "informants" whose stories await postcolonial listener-readers.

《北美原住民生命叙事》并非一本探讨具体历史事件或人物的传记式作品，而是一次对北美原住民群体丰富而多样的生命经验的深入探寻。本书旨在呈现那些被历史洪流所淹没，或因传统表达方式与主流文化不符而被忽视的声音，通过他们自身的回忆、口述、故事以及对过往的追忆，勾勒出北美原住民在不同时代、不同地域、不同社会背景下的生存状态、文化传承、精神世界以及与环境的深刻联结。本书并非以单一的线性视角来叙述，而是试图构建一个多维度的叙事空间。它包含的不仅是个人生命轨迹的记录，更是在这些个人生命故事中折射出的集体记忆、文化价值观、以及在变迁中始终保持的精神内核。读者将有机会接触到那些关于童年时代的自然玩乐、成年后的生存挑战、社区内的仪式庆典、与祖先的对话、以及面对外部世界冲击时的应对策略等一系列生动而真实的描述。《北美原住民生命叙事》的独特之处在于，它邀请了不同部族、不同年龄、不同性别、不同社会角色的原住民个体，以他们最真实、最自在的方式，分享他们的生命故事。这些故事可能充满了对土地的依恋，对动植物的敬畏，对家庭和社群的珍视，对传统智慧的传承，以及在现代社会中如何平衡文化认同与生存发展的思考。它们可能讲述了狩猎采集的艰辛与乐趣，农耕生活的辛勤与收获，亦或是作为艺术家、学者、活动家等在各自领域贡献的经历。本书的价值在于，它提供了一个绕开外部观察者视角、直接倾听原住民声音的途径。通过这些个体生命叙事的汇聚，我们能够更深刻地理解北美原住民文化的韧性与活力，感受到他们面对挑战时所展现出的智慧与勇气，以及他们对生命、对自然、对宇宙的独特认知方式。这些叙事不仅仅是对过去的追溯，更是对当下和未来的启示，帮助我们反思自身与自然的和谐关系，以及多元文化共存的意义。《北美原住民生命叙事》中所包含的，是那些鲜活的、充满情感的、带有个人印记的生命片段。它们或许会让我们看到，在历史课本中冰冷的文字之外，是怎样一个个鲜活的生命在延续着他们的文化和尊严。这些故事，既是个人的，也是集体的；既是过去的，也是现在和未来的。它们共同编织了一幅宏大而细腻的北美原住民生活画卷，等待着有心人去细细品读，去感受其中蕴含的生命力量与文化智慧。
