Abstract
This course provides an in-depth look at selected Native American cultures, their
interaction with EuroAmericans, and intertribal relations in North America. The
evolution of
United States Indian policy, as well as key shifts in Native American strategies for
survival
form the chronological frameworks for the course. Within these frameworks we will
address
issues of tribal sovereignty, conquest, and cultural brokerage. Through Native oral
histories, written memoirs and fiction, as well as recent scholarship, we will explore the
concepts of syncretism, cultural persistence, and bicultural identity.
