Opis

Legendary Cherokee anthropologist Robert Thomas draws on his years of studying and living with North American Indians to describe through fascinating anecdote and examples the central features of traditional North American Indian religions. He is joined by Christian social ethicist Terence Anderson who engages Thomas in conversation and draws on his own expertise to reflect on the relationship between Indian religions, Christianity and broader contemporary culture. The book not only provides a window into a much neglected and misunderstood topic but provides a rich resource for consideration of not just how those in the wider North American culture might move forward in their relationship with indigenous peoples of North America and how that culture might be challenged and learn from what we find.
