The League of the Iroquois, the most famous native government in North America, dominated intertribal diplomacy in the Northeast and influenced the course of American colonial history for nearly two centuries. The age and early development of the League, however, have long been in dispute. In this highly original book, two anthropological archaeologists with differing approaches and distinct regional interests synthesize their research to explore the underpinnings of the confederacy. Wonderley and Sempowski endeavor to address such issues as when tribes coalesced, when intertribal alliances presaging the League were forged, when the five-nation confederation came to fruition, and what light oral tradition may shine on these developments. This groundbreaking work develops a new conversation in the field of Indigenous studies, one that deepens our understanding of the Iroquois League’s origins. 易洛魁联盟,北美最著名的土著政府,主导了东北部的部落间外交,影响了美国近两个世纪的殖民历史进程。然而,联盟的年龄和早期发展,长期以来一直存在争议。在这本极具原创性的书中,两位具有不同研究方法和不同地域兴趣的人类学考古学家,综合了他们的研究,以探索南方联盟的基础。Wonderley 和 sempowski 致力于解决这样的问题,比如当部落联合起来,当部落间联盟预示着联盟的形成,当五国联盟开花结果,以及什么光明的口头传统可以照亮这些发展。这项突破性的工作,在土著研究领域,引发了一场新的对话,加深了我们对易洛魁联盟起源的理解。 基本信息 出版社 : Syracuse University Press; 第 Illustrated 版 (2019年10月15日) 语言 : 英语 精装 : 288页 ISBN-10 : 0815636601 ISBN-13 : 978-0815636601 商品重量 : 540 g 尺寸 : 15.24 x 1.91 x 22.86 cm
