The Other Side of Middletown: Exploring Muncie's African American Community
ISBN: 9780759104846 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 324 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Prompted by the overt omission of Muncie's black community from the famous study by Lynd and Lynd, Middletown: A Study in Modern American Culture, the authors uncover the neglected part of the story of Middletown, a well-known pseudonym for the Midwestern city of Muncie, Indiana. It is a uniquely collaborative field study involving local experts, ethnographers, and teams of college students. The book, The Other Side of Middletown, and DVD, Middletown Redux, are valuable resources for community research. Sponsored by the Virginia B. Ball Center for Creative Inquiry, Muncie, Indiana.

The Jesus Road: Kiowas, Christianity, and Indian Hymns [With CD]
ISBN: 9780803280052 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 152 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In this highly original and moving volume, an anthropologist, a historian, and a Native singer come together to reveal the personal and cultural power of Christian faith among the Kiowas of southwestern Oklahoma and to show how Christian members of the Kiowa community have creatively embraced hymns and made them their own.

The Power of Kiowa Song
ISBN: 9780816518357 / Angielski / Miękka / 1998 / 283 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Many Kiowas believe that song is a gift from God. Its power, argues Luke E. Lassiter, rests in the many ways that community members hear, understand, and feel it: "Song has power. As I begin to understand what this means for my mentors, I am just beginning to understand what this means in my life. They are not just singers. They are vehicles for something greater than all of us. Indeed, I now understand that I am not just a singer. But . . . I will sing until I die." As a boy, Lassiter had an early fascination with pow wows. This interest eventually went from a hobby to a passion. As...

The Chicago Guide to Collaborative Ethnography
ISBN: 9780226468891 / Angielski / Twarda / 2005 / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Collaboration between ethnographers and subjects has long been a product of the close, intimate relationships that define ethnographic research. But increasingly, collaboration is no longer viewed as merely a consequence of fieldwork; instead collaboration now preconditions and shapes research design as well as its dissemination. As a result, ethnographic subjects are shifting from being informants to being consultants. The emergence of collaborative ethnography highlights this relationship between consultant and ethnographer, moving it to center stage as a calculated part not only of...

Powwow
ISBN: 9780803267558 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 314 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This anthology examines the origins, meanings, and enduring power of the powwow. Held on and off reservations, in rural and urban settings, powwows are an important vehicle for Native peoples to gather regularly. Although sometimes a paradoxical combination of both tribal and intertribal identities, they are a medium by which many groups maintain important practices. Powwow begins with an exploration of the history and significance of powwows, ranging from the Hochunk dances of the early twentieth century to present-day Southern Cheyenne gatherings to the contemporary powwow circuit of the...
