{"product_id":"the-appropriation-of-native-american-suzanne-owen-9781847063939","title":"The Appropriation of Native American Spirituality","description":"Native Americans and Canadians are largely romanticised or sidelined figures in modern society. Their spirituality has been appropriated on a relatively large scale by Europeans and non-Native Americans, with little concern for the diversity of Native American opinions. Suzanne Owen offers an insight into appropriation that will bring a new understanding and perspective to these debates. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis important volume collects together these key debates from the last 25 years and sets them in context, analyses Native American objections to appropriations of their spirituality and examines 'New Age' practices based on Native American spirituality. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe Appropriation of Native American Spirituality \u003c\/em\u003eincludes the findings of fieldwork among the Mi'Kmaq of Newfoundland on the sharing of ceremonies between Native Americans and First Nations, which highlights an aspect of the debate that has been under-researched in both anthropology and religious studies: that Native American discourses about the breaking of 'protocols', rules on the participation and performance of ceremonies, is at the heart of objections to the appropriation of Native American spirituality.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Suzanne Owen\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1847063934\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781847063939\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bloomsbury Publishing PLC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/21\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 214\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.20h x 6.30w x 0.90d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eReference and Research Bk News\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/01\/2009 pg. 55","brand":"Suzanne Owen","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48459649679615,"sku":"9781847063939","price":200.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_a2355e12-e3eb-4218-a8e0-09871001cfb0.jpg?v=1777411022","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-appropriation-of-native-american-suzanne-owen-9781847063939","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
