Zusammenfassung: | "Long known as the Cannibal Dance, the Hamat̓sa is among the most important hereditary prerogatives of the Kwakwakaꞌwakw of British Columbia. Writing the Hamat̓sa offers a critical survey of attempts to record, describe, and interpret the dance under shifting colonial policy. In the late nineteenth century, as anthropologists arrived to document the practice, colonial agents were pursuing its eradication and Kwakwa̱ka̱ꞌwakw were adapting it to ensure its survival. In the process, the dance--with dramatic choreography, magnificent bird masks, and an aura of cannibalism--entered a vast and variegated library of ethnographic texts. Drawing on close, contextualized reading of published texts, extensive archival research, and fieldwork, Aaron Glass analyses key examples of overlapping genres over four centuries: the exploration journal, the territorial survey, the missionary polemic, settler journalism, government reports, anthropological works (especially by Franz Boas and George Hunt), poetry, fiction, and Indigenous (auto)biography. Going beyond postcolonial critiques of representation that often ignore Indigenous agency in the ethnographic encounter, Writing the Hamat̓sa focuses on forms of textual mediation and Indigenous response that helped transform the ceremony from a set of specific practices into a generalized cultural icon. This meticulous work illuminates how Indigenous people contribute to, contest, and repurpose texts in the process of fashioning modern identities under settler colonialism."-- |

Writing the Hamat̓sa offers a critical survey of attempts to record, describe, and interpret the dance under shifting colonial policy. In the late nineteenth century, as anthropologists arrived to document the practice, colonial agents were pursuing its eradication and Kwakwa̱ka̱ꞌwakw were adapting it to ensure its survival. In the process, the dance--with dramatic choreography, magnificent bird masks, and an aura of cannibalism--entered a vast and variegated library of ethnographic texts. Drawing on close, contextualized reading of published texts, extensive archival research, and fieldwork, Aaron Glass analyses key examples of overlapping genres over four centuries: the exploration journal, the territorial survey, the missionary polemic, settler journalism, government reports, anthropological works (especially by Franz Boas and George Hunt), poetry, fiction, and Indigenous (auto)biography. Going beyond postcolonial critiques of representation that often ignore Indigenous agency in the ethnographic encounter, Writing the Hamat̓sa focuses on forms of textual mediation and Indigenous response that helped transform the ceremony from a set of specific practices into a generalized cultural icon. This meticulous work illuminates how Indigenous people contribute to, contest, and repurpose texts in the process of fashioning modern identities under settler colonialism."--</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="600" ind1="1" ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Boas, Franz</subfield><subfield code="d">1858-1942</subfield><subfield code="0">(DE-588)118512153</subfield><subfield code="2">gnd</subfield><subfield code="9">rswk-swf</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1="0" ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Kulturerbe</subfield><subfield code="0">(DE-588)4033560-4</subfield><subfield code="2">gnd</subfield><subfield code="9">rswk-swf</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1="0" ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Ritual</subfield><subfield code="0">(DE-588)4050164-4</subfield><subfield code="2">gnd</subfield><subfield code="9">rswk-swf</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1="0" ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Kwakiutl</subfield><subfield code="0">(DE-588)4033881-2</subfield><subfield code="2">gnd</subfield><subfield code="9">rswk-swf</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1="0" ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Tanz</subfield><subfield code="0">(DE-588)4059028-8</subfield><subfield code="2">gnd</subfield><subfield code="9">rswk-swf</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1="0" ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Kolonialismus</subfield><subfield code="0">(DE-588)4073624-6</subfield><subfield code="2">gnd</subfield><subfield code="9">rswk-swf</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Kwakiutl Indians / Historiography</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Kwakiutl dance / British Columbia</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Kwakiutl Indians / British Columbia / Rites and ceremonies</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Kwakiutl Indians / British Columbia / Ethnic identity</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Kwakiutl Indians / Colonization / British Columbia</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Ethnology / British Columbia</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Ethnology</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Kwakiutl dance</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Kwakiutl Indians / Rites and ceremonies</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2="2"><subfield code="a">British Columbia</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="689" ind1="0" ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Boas, Franz</subfield><subfield code="d">1858-1942</subfield><subfield code="0">(DE-588)118512153</subfield><subfield code="D">p</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="689" ind1="0" ind2="1"><subfield code="a">Kwakiutl</subfield><subfield code="0">(DE-588)4033881-2</subfield><subfield code="D">s</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="689" ind1="0" ind2="2"><subfield code="a">Tanz</subfield><subfield code="0">(DE-588)4059028-8</subfield><subfield code="D">s</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="689" ind1="0" ind2="3"><subfield code="a">Ritual</subfield><subfield code="0">(DE-588)4050164-4</subfield><subfield code="D">s</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="689" ind1="0" ind2="4"><subfield code="a">Kulturerbe</subfield><subfield code="0">(DE-588)4033560-4</subfield><subfield code="D">s</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="689" ind1="0" ind2="5"><subfield code="a">Kolonialismus</subfield><subfield code="0">(DE-588)4073624-6</subfield><subfield code="D">s</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="689" ind1="0" ind2=" "><subfield code="C">b</subfield><subfield code="5">DE-604</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="776" ind1="0" ind2="8"><subfield code="i">Erscheint auch als</subfield><subfield code="n">Online-Ausgabe, PDF</subfield><subfield code="z">9780774863797</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="776" ind1="0" ind2="8"><subfield code="i">Erscheint auch als</subfield><subfield code="n">Online-Ausgabe, EPUB</subfield><subfield code="z">9780774863803</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="856" ind1="4" ind2="2"><subfield code="m">Digitalisierung BSB München - ADAM Catalogue Enrichment</subfield><subfield code="q">application/pdf</subfield><subfield code="u">http://bvbr.bib-bvb.de:8991/F?func=service&doc_library=BVB01&local_base=BVB01&doc_number=032764856&sequence=000001&line_number=0001&func_code=DB_RECORDS&service_type=MEDIA</subfield><subfield code="3">Inhaltsverzeichnis</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="999" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">oai:aleph.bib-bvb.de:BVB01-032764856</subfield></datafield></record></collection> |

Writing the Hamat̓sa offers a critical survey of attempts to record, describe, and interpret the dance under shifting colonial policy. In the late nineteenth century, as anthropologists arrived to document the practice, colonial agents were pursuing its eradication and Kwakwa̱ka̱ꞌwakw were adapting it to ensure its survival. In the process, the dance--with dramatic choreography, magnificent bird masks, and an aura of cannibalism--entered a vast and variegated library of ethnographic texts. Drawing on close, contextualized reading of published texts, extensive archival research, and fieldwork, Aaron Glass analyses key examples of overlapping genres over four centuries: the exploration journal, the territorial survey, the missionary polemic, settler journalism, government reports, anthropological works (especially by Franz Boas and George Hunt), poetry, fiction, and Indigenous (auto)biography. Going beyond postcolonial critiques of representation that often ignore Indigenous agency in the ethnographic encounter, Writing the Hamat̓sa focuses on forms of textual mediation and Indigenous response that helped transform the ceremony from a set of specific practices into a generalized cultural icon.
