Book Synopsis Standing Ground by : Thomas Buckley

Download or read book Standing Ground written by Thomas Buckley and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2002-12-23 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This colorful, richly textured account of spiritual training and practice within an American Indian social network emphasizes narrative over analysis. Thomas Buckley's foregrounding of Yurok narratives creates one major level of dialogue in an innovative ethnography that features dialogue as its central theoretical trope. Buckley places himself in conversation with contemporary Yurok friends and elders, with written texts, and with twentieth-century anthropology as well. He describes Yurok Indian spirituality as "a significant field in which individual and society meet in dialogue—cooperating, resisting, negotiating, changing each other in manifold ways. 'Culture,' here, is not a thing but a process, an emergence through time."
