Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pocahontas, the Virginia Nonpareil: A Drama The several attempts to effect an English settlement upon the continent of America, prior to 1607, met with failure and disaster. In 1584, Sir Walter Raleigh coasted the Carolinas and took formal possession of the country, naming it "Virginia," in honor of Elizabeth, England's glorious maiden Queen. This venture was simply one of exploration. A year later, Raleigh promoted a colony of one hundred and eight, which, under Sir Ralph Lane, made settlement on the island of Roanoke. This colony was abandoned in the following year, the majority of its members returning to England. Fifty of the party, left in charge of the settlement, were utterly annihilated by the savages. This event, together with the reports spread broadcast in England by the returned adventurers, were not calculated to encourage further attempts at colonization. Among the archives of the British Government is a letter from one of these Roanoke colonists to a friend at home, which sets forth, in substance, among other things, this discouraging piece of information: "This frightful wilderness must surely be the death of all of us, for never could a Christian hope to live in such a land of abominations. The greatest summer heat at home is but the mildness of spring to what we suffer here. We are, for the most time, stricken with vicious fevers, and rest at night is impossible, owing to the swarms of winged and stinging insects, that suck one's blood. Besides these plagues, legions of painted heathens perform their devilish dances round about, and threaten us with their weapons." It is scarcely to be wondered, that people living under such circumstances should wish to return to their homes.

Download or read book Jesus and Pocahontas written by Howard A. Snyder and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2015-05-20 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most Americans know the story of Pocahontas, but not the fact that she was a Christian, and the reasons for her dramatic conversion. Pocahontas had a history-altering encounter with Jesus Christ. A key figure was Alexander Whitaker, pioneer Anglican missionary in Virginia, who taught Pocahontas the Christian faith--but is almost totally unknown today. This story of Pocahontas has never fully been told. Or it has been ridiculed. Yet it is true, as this book now documents. In these pages the real Pocahontas comes alive as a flesh-and-blood person with her own thoughts and decisions. This book shows the beauty, the romance, and the tragedy of Pocahontas's short life. It also traces the way the Pocahontas story has been used and misused over the past four hundred years, opening the door to the larger issue of the suppression of native peoples in U.S. history. The real story of Pocahontas presents a timely case study both in the history of missions and the history of America--an investigation of the interplay between gospel, culture, and national mythology.

Download or read book Shakespeare in the Theatre: The American Shakespeare Center written by Paul Menzer and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2017-02-23 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The original Blackfriars closed its doors in the 1640s, ending over half-a-century of performances by men and boys. In 2001, in the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia, it opened once again. The reconstructed Blackfriars, home to the American Shakespeare Center, represents an old playhouse for the new millennium and therefore symbolically registers the permanent revolution in the performance of Shakespeare. Time and again, the industry refreshes its practices by rediscovering its own history. This book assesses how one American company has capitalised on history and in so doing has forged one of its own to become a major influence in contemporary Shakespearean theatre.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This essential introduction to American studies examines the core foundational myths upon which the nation is based and which still determine discussions of US-American identities today. These myths include the myth of »discovery,« the Pocahontas myth, the myth of the Promised Land, the myth of the Founding Fathers, the melting pot myth, the myth of the West, and the myth of the self-made man. The chapters provide extended analyses of each of these myths, using examples from popular culture, literature, memorial culture, school books, and every-day life. Including visual material as well as study questions, this book will be of interest to any student of American studies and will foster an understanding of the United States of America as an imagined community by analyzing the foundational role of myths in the process of nation building.

Download or read book Indigenous Women’s Theatre in Canada written by Sarah MacKenzie and published by Fernwood Publishing. This book was released on 2020-11-15T00:00:00Z with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite a recent increase in the productivity and popularity of Indigenous playwrights in Canada, most critical and academic attention has been devoted to the work of male dramatists, leaving female writers on the margins. In Indigenous Women’s Theatre in Canada, Sarah MacKenzie addresses this critical gap by focusing on plays by Indigenous women written and produced in the socio-cultural milieux of twentieth and twenty-first century Canada. Closely analyzing dramatic texts by Monique Mojica, Marie Clements, and Yvette Nolan, MacKenzie explores representations of gendered colonialist violence in order to determine the varying ways in which these representations are employed subversively and informatively by Indigenous women. These plays provide an avenue for individual and potential cultural healing by deconstructing some of the harmful ideological work performed by colonial misrepresentations of Indigeneity and demonstrate the strength and persistence of Indigenous women, offering a space in which decolonial futurisms can be envisioned. In this unique work, MacKenzie suggests that colonialist misrepresentations of Indigenous women have served to perpetuate demeaning stereotypes, justifying devaluation of and violence against Indigenous women. Most significantly, however, she argues that resistant representations in Indigenous women’s dramatic writing and production work in direct opposition to such representational and manifest violence.
