Edward S. Curtis and the North American Indian Project in the Field,Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Mick Gidley provides an intimate and informative glimpse of photographer Edward S. Curtis (18681952) and his associates as they embarked on their epic quest to document through word and picture the traditional cultures of Native Americans in the western United Statescultures that Curtis believed were inevitably doomed.Curtiss project in the early decades of the twentieth century became the largest anthropological enterprise ever undertaken in this country, yielding the monumental work The North American Indian. Its publication was a watershed in the anthropological study of Native Americans, inspiring the first featurelength documentary film, popular magazine articles, books for young readers, lectures, and photography exhibitions. Housing a wealth of ethnographic information yet steeped in nostalgia and predicated on the assumption that Native Americans were a vanishing race, Curtiss work has been both influential and controversial, and its vision of Native Americans must still be reckoned with today.Gidley draws on reports and reflections by Curtis and the projects assistants, memoirs by Curtis family members, and eyewitness accounts by newspaper reporters in presenting an unprecedented look at anthropological fieldwork as it was commonly practiced during this period. He also examines the views of Curtis and his contemporaries concerning their enterprise and how both Native Americans and the mainstream American public perceived their efforts.
