Book Synopsis Mission Among the Blackfeet by : Howard L. Harrod
Download or read book Mission Among the Blackfeet written by Howard L. Harrod and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 1975-10-01 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the once vital world of the Blackfoot Indians crumbled in the face of advancing white civilization, shrinking buffalo herds, and the ravages of smallpox, yet another blow was struck at its social and religious foundations with the arrival of the Christian missionaries, both Protestant and Catholic. In this book the author recounts the history of the missions and their impact on the Blackfeet, from their founding in the 1840's to the present day. He has drawn upon much previously unpublished material to recapture the tribe's proud and tragic moments, the sometimes equally tragic fate of the missionaries, and the effects of shifting governmental and denominational policies upon both groups.

Book Synopsis Blackfoot Religion and the Consequences of Cultural Commoditization by : Kenneth Hayes Lokensgard
Download or read book Blackfoot Religion and the Consequences of Cultural Commoditization written by Kenneth Hayes Lokensgard and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-15 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the exchange of Blackfoot "medicine bundles" within contemporary Blackfoot culture and between the Blackfoot Peoples and Euro-Americans. These ceremonial bundles, which are circulated as gifts in their native context, are robbed of their statuses as living beings or persons, when they are treated as symbolic objects or commodities by cultural outsiders. Much of the original, ethnographic data presented in this book deals with the attempts of some Blackfeet to repatriate ceremonial materials from Euro-American hands. This book represents a valuable study of contemporary Blackfoot religion as well as the repatriation movement. Kenneth Lokensgard also contributes to the studies of material culture and exchange; central to his investigation is the critical examination and reapplication of the interpretative terms "gift" and "commodity." Careful use of these terms, Lokensgard argues, can better help scholars appreciate how different peoples perceive the worlds they inhabit.
Book Synopsis Letters from the Rocky Mountain Indian Missions by : Philip Rappagliosi
Download or read book Letters from the Rocky Mountain Indian Missions written by Philip Rappagliosi and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2021-12-02 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Letters from the Rocky Mountain Indian Missions reveals the life of an Italian Jesuit as he worked at three missions in the northern Rocky Mountains from 1874 to 1878. Meticulously translated and carefully annotated, the letters of Father Philip Rappagliosi (1841–78) are a rare and rich source of information about the daily lives, customs, and beliefs of the many Native peoples that he came into contact with: Nez Perces, Kootenais, Salish Flatheads, Coeur d’Alenes, Pend d’Oreilles, Blackfeet, and Canadian Métis. These never-before-translated letters reveal the shifting, sometimes volatile relationship between the missionaries and the Native Americans and also provide a window into the complex lives of the Jesuits. After requesting to work among the Native peoples of the American West, Rappagliosi arrived at Saint Mary’s Mission in the Bitterroot Valley of Montana in 1874, where he spent much time among already converted members of the Salish Flathead Nation. The energetic Rappagliosi journeyed next to Canada to visit some Kootenai Indian bands and then was reassigned to Saint Ignatius Mission, where he interacted with the Upper Pend d’Oreilles Indians. Rappagliosi’s final and most difficult assignment was at Saint Peter’s Mission among the Blackfeet in Montana, who were not converts. There he became embroiled in disputes with a controversial former Oblate priest, and foul play was suspected in his death at the age of thirty-seven.

Download or read book The Blackfeet written by John C. Ewers and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 2012-11-21 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Blackfeet were the strongest military power on the northwestern plains throughout the eighteenth century. But the near extinction of buffalo in the late nineteenth century brought dire poverty to the tribe, forcing them to rely in part on the U.S. government for sustenance. In this history of the Blackfeet, historian John C. Ewers relied on his own experience living among the Blackfeet as well as archival research to tell of not only the events that have so drastically affected the Blackfeet way of life, but also the ways the Blackfeet have responded, adapting and preserving their culture in the face of a changing landscape.
Book Synopsis The Blackfeet; Raiders on the Northwestern Plains by : John Canfield Ewers
Download or read book The Blackfeet; Raiders on the Northwestern Plains written by John Canfield Ewers and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 1958 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Blackfeet were the strongest military power on the northwestern plains in the historic buffalo days. For half a century up to 1805, they were almost constantly at war with the Shoshonis and came very close to exterminating that tribe. They aggressively asserted themselves against the Flatheads and the Kutenais, shoving them westward across the Rockies. They got on fairly well with English and Canadian traders during the heyday of the fur trade on the Saskatchewan River, but on the upper Missouri they took an early dislike to Americans, whom they called "Big Knives." American fur traders, such as Manuel Lisa, Pierre Menard, and Andrew Henry, were literally chased out of Montana by the Blackfeet.
