Dr. Apelles, a translator of ancient texts, has made an unsettling discovery: a manuscript that has languished for years, written in a language that only he speaks. Moving back and forth between the scholar and his text, from a lone man in a labyrinthine archive to a pair of beautiful young Indian lovers in an unspoiled and snowy woodland, David Treuer weaves together two love stories. Enthralling and suspenseful, The Translation of Dr. Apelles dares to redefine the Native American novel.

ISBN: 9780873518437 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. On June 27, 1868, Hole in the Day (Bagonegiizhig) the Younger left Crow Wing, Minnesota, for Washington, DC, to fight the planned removal of the Mississippi Ojibwe to a reservation at White Earth. Several miles from his home, the self-styled leader of all the Ojibwe was stopped by at least twelve Ojibwe men and fatally shot.
Hole in the Day's death was national news, and rumors of its cause were many: personal jealousy, retribution for his claiming to be head chief of the Ojibwe, retaliation for the attacks he fomented in 1862, or retribution for his attempts to keep mixed-blood...

Witajcie w rezerwacie. Indianin w podróży przez...
ISBN: 9788381910026 / Polski / Twarda / 2020 / 344 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 1-3 dni roboczych. Historia Indian pełna jest dramatycznych wydarzeń i bohaterów o poetyckich imionach. Jednak wielcy wodzowie pykający fajkę pokoju należą już do przeszłości (a może raczej do naszych fantazji o przeszłości). Życie ich potomków we współczesnych rezerwatach jest znacznie mniej romantyczne, choć nadal budzi wiele emocji. David Treuer, członek plemienia Odżibuejów i ceniony powieściopisarz, dorastał w rezerwacie Leech Lake, ale wykształcenie zdobywał na „białych” uniwersytetach. Dzięki temu potrafił pogodzić dwie perspektywy, uczestnika i obserwatora, co w...

An entirely new approach to reading, understanding, and enjoying Native American fiction This book has been written with the narrow conviction that if Native American literature is worth thinking about at all, it is worth thinking about as literature. The vast majority of thought that has been poured out onto Native American literature has puddled, for the most part, on how the texts are positioned in relation to history or culture. An entirely new approach to reading, understanding, and enjoying Native American fiction This book has been written with the narrow... |

Warrior Nation: A History of the Red Lake Ojibwe
ISBN: 9780873519632 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 456 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The Red Lake Nation has a unique and deeply important history. Unlike every other reservation in Minnesota, Red Lake holds its land in common--and, consequently, the tribe retains its entire reservation land base. The people of Red Lake developed the first modern indigenous democratic governance system in the United States, decades before any other tribe, but they also maintained their system of hereditary chiefs. The tribe never surrendered to state jurisdiction over crimes committed on its reservation. The reservation is also home to the highest number of Ojibwe-speaking people in the...
