The history and culture of the great Iroquois nation, their destruction and demoralization, and their cultural revival at the hands of the Indian visionary, Handsome Lake. 384 pages + index. hardcover. Illustrated with 8 pages of halftones and 2 maps. Jacket drawing by Lorence Bjorklund. keywords: American Indian History Seneca. FROM THE PUBLISHER - This book about the greatest of the northeastern Indian tribes re-creates an extraordinary culture and narrates the epic story of the collapse and renascence of a people. The author portrays the life and culture of the Seneca first at the apex of their power, when this proud tribe dominated the Iroquois Confederacy, made its influence felt all the way to the Ohio Country, and served as a balance in North America between the French and English. He then tells of the impact o the French and Indian Wars on the Seneca and describes the steady deterioration of their culture and morale until, after their grievous reversal during the American Revolution, they were confined to reservations. He unfolds their extraordinary revitalization through the visions and prophecies of Handsome Lake, a minor chieftain, a reformed alcoholic who combined pagan and Quaker Christian elements in his teaching and succeeded in restoring the cultural health of his people. Anthony F. C. Wallace illuminates the complexity and intuitive sophistication of the Seneca - their mystic-therapeutic insistence on the importance of dreams, their ritualization (by adoption) of vengeance - to lend a new intensity to our understanding of the confrontation between the Indian and the white man. Today Handsome Lake's religion is still practiced in the longhouses of Canadian and New York State reservations, providing one of the bridges between the ancient Seneca culture and their tribal identity in the modern world, a precarious balance that the author describes in scholarly and compassionate detail. inventory #21385 Very Good in Slightly Worn Dustjacket.

Hardcover. Condition: Very good. Lorence Bjorkjlund (Jacket drawing) (illustrator). Second printing. xiii, [2], 384, xi, [2] pages. Illustrations. Maps. Notes and References. Bibliography. Index. No Dust Jacket present. Anthony Francis Clarke Wallace (April 15, 1923 - October 5, 2015) was a Canadian-American anthropologist who specialized in Native American cultures, especially the Iroquois. His research expressed an interest in the intersection of cultural anthropology and psychology. He was famous for the theory of revitalization movements. At the University of Pennsylvania in 1955 he became senior research associate at the Eastern Pennsylvania Psychiatric Institute, at which place he later became the Director of Clinical Research, and served as such until 1980. From 1955 to 1960, Wallace served as research associate at the institute and visiting associate professor in the Department of Anthropology at Penn, following which, he was appointed director of clinical research at the University of Pennsylvania. A year later, after writing Culture and Personality, he became full-time professor and chairman of the Department of Anthropology at Penn. Wallace published perhaps his most influence work, The Death and Rebirth of the Seneca. He was elected as a member of the American Philosophical Society in 1969. Wallace authored such books as Rockdale and Saint Clair which were awarded Bancroft and Dexter Prizes in 1987 and 1989 respectively. In 1980, he became the first Geraldine R. Segal Professor in American Social Thought at the University of Pennsylvania, and three years later became Professor of the Department of Anthropology at the same institution. This book tells the story of the late colonial and early reservation history of the Seneca Indians, and of the prophet Handsome Lake, his visions, and the moral and religious revitalization of an American Indian society that he and his followers achieved in the years around 1800.
