They must also reexamine Spanish and Portuguese texts written in the early years of conquest and settlement from an essentially Eurocentric point of view to uncover the Indian voices beneath the surface. New evidence is emerging to challenge old notions of native Americans as \"noble savages\" living an an Eden-like paradise, or isolated, primitive people quickly defeated by \"superior\" Europeans. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHern n Horna's book provides a context for understanding the resilience of native languages, cultures, and populations throughout the 19th and 20th centuries, as well as the demands their leaders are now making for recognition and justice in lands stretching from Patagonia to Alaska. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Hern疣 Horna\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1558762698\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781558762695\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Markus Wiener Publishers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/01\/2001\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 192\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.66lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.94h x 6.12w x 0.59d","brand":"Hern疣 Horna","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44255034048767,"sku":"9781558762695","price":18.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_bb4fe064-f103-45d5-bb61-3776f5bd9f20.jpg?v=1694615742","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/la-indianidad-hern-n-horna-9781558762695","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
