- Course objectives
- This seminar is a survey of the history, culture, life-way, social organization, and world views of the aboriginal inhabitants (i.e. Native Americans) of Canada and the United States. The course uses a geographic approach to these issues, examining how Native American cultures adapted to each of the nine geographic regions into which North America is divided for this course. From each region, a selection of readings focusing on one specific group will be used as a model for the other groups in the region. Readings for this course will be extensive and include ethnographic, ethno-historical and historical texts, as well as traditional Native American folklore. In addition, video taped materials will be used.
