    1,707 words
    Not less than a week ago I was channel surfing on my television when I came across your show on the history channel titled "Examining Empires". I found the show to be very informative and interesting due to the fact that I am learning of the same material in one of my college history courses. Although the show was very well documented, I became disturbed with the information that your so-called Latin American history expert, Ms. Ima Psycho distributed. Due to my opposition of the information tha...

    "Yes, it's only Reservation Blues but I like it:" On the Connection between Christian and Native Religions One of the most interesting aspects of the anthropological study of Catherine A. Lutz, entitled Unnatural Emotions, is that the author applies the same sort of intense self-examination to her own project as an anthropologist amongst the Ifaluk as she does to the Ifaluk themselves. Every individual at some point in his or her own life has been confronted with the surprise, after all, that so...
  • Christianization Of African Slaves
    871 words
    Sewall's Response to Mather's The Negro Christianized Cotton Mather and Samuel Sewall clearly disagree on the legality of slavery. For Sewall, it is most important that slaves be given the same freedom as all men; for Mather, it is most important that slaves be Christianized and given the opportunity of eternal light through the grace of Jesus Christ. Christianizing slaves, according to Sewall, neither makes possession of them legal nor improves the providence of their masters. Mather indicates ...
  • Literature Of The Native Canadian
    3,584 words
    Introduction: Literature offers a strong and passionate voice for the past. The literature of the Native Canadian is a voice we, the people of Canada, can no longer ignore. There is little to be gained by dwelling on the past. Nevertheless, there is much to be realized by accepting what has passed, with all of its mistakes and dust we might otherwise wish to hide under the carpets. English literature, since at least the sixteenth century, has a firm grounding in Canadian history. As a white Angl...
  • Algonquin And Iroquois Tribes
    1,361 words
    The Jesuits missionaries in America faced many problems, one in particular dealt with relations between the missionaries and the Natives. The letter deals with the treatment of prisoners after a brief military engagement and in addition, attempts by the Jesuits to convert the captured Iroquois. The treatment of the prisoners seems benevolent, compared to the past modus operandi used by the Church to hasten conversion. Furthermore, the letter exemplifies the hypocrisy of the missionaries after th...
