Sommario/riassunto |
|
In this collection of illuminating conversations, renowned historian of world religions Huston Smith invites ten influential American Indian spiritual and political leaders to talk about their five-hundred-year struggle for religious freedom. Their intimate, impassioned dialogues yield profound insights into one of the most striking cases of tragic irony in history: the country that prides itself on religious freedom has resolutely denied those same rights to its own indigenous people.

remarkable erudition and curiosity-and respectfully framing his questions in light of the revelation that his discovery of Native American religion helped him round out his views of the world's religions-Smith skillfully helps reveal the depth of the speakers' knowledge and experience. American Indian leaders Vine Deloria, Jr. (Standing Rock Sioux), Winona LaDuke (Anishshinaabeg), Walter Echo-Hawk (Pawnee), Frank Dayish, Jr. (Navajo), Charlotte Black Elk (Oglala Lakota), Douglas George-Kanentiio (Mohawk-Iroquois), Lenny Foster (Dine/Navajo), Tonya Gonnella Frichner (Onondaga), Anthony Guy Lopez (Lakota-Sioux), and Oren Lyons (Onondaga) provide an impressive overview of the critical issues facing the Native American community today. Their ideas about spirituality, politics, relations with the U.S. government, their place in American society, and the continuing vitality of their communities give voice to a population that is all too often ignored in contemporary discourse. The culture they describe is not a relic of the past, nor a historical curiosity, but a living tradition that continues to shape Native American lives. |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
Im Mittelpunkt des Sammelbandes steht die Frage nach der Bedeutung, die der schriftlichen Fixierung öffentlicher Botschaften wie privater Mitteilungen im öffentlichen Raum der Antike, Spätantike und Mittelalter zukam. Inschriften befanden sich - damals wie heute - auf Mauern und Wänden von Häusern und Tempeln, in Innenräumen von Kirchen, auf der Agora oder dem Forum, auf oder an öffentlich aufgestellten Bildwerken wie Statuen, Reliefs, Gemälden und Mosaiken. Die Gegenwart beschrifteter Objekte prägte und gestaltete den öffentlichen Raum, und selbst wenn die Inschriften nicht - oder nur partiell - gelesen wurden, so luden sie den Betrachter durch ihre oft extrem auffällige Präsenz doch zur Wahrnehmung und Interaktion ein. Durch den Versuch, die Artefakte in ihrem originären sozialen wie räumlichen Umfeld zu rekontextualisieren, eröffnen sich neue Deutungsperspektiven: Neben Beobachtungen zur konkreten Gestaltung des einzelnen Schriftzeugnisses gewinnen Fragen nach der räumlichen Beziehung zu benachbarten Monumenten, der Platzierung |

im öffentlichen Raum und der sich damit wandelnden Rezeptionsbedingungen an Bedeutung. |
