Native American Roots: Relationality and Indigenous Regeneration
Under Empire, 1770-1859 explores the development of modern
Indigenous identities within the settler colonial context of the
early United States. With an aggressively expanding United States
that sought to displace Native peoples, the very foundations of
Indigeneity were endangered by the disruption of Native connections
to the land. This volume describes how Natives embedded
conceptualizations integral to Indigenous ontologies into social
and cultural institutions like racial ideologies, black
slaveholding, and Christianity that they incorporated from the
settler society. This process became one vital avenue through which
various Native peoples were able to regenerate Indigeneity within
environments dominated by a settler society. The author offers case
studies of four different tribes to illustrate how Native thought
processes, not just cultural and political processes, helped
Natives redefine the parameters of Indigeneity. This book will be
of interest to students and scholars of early American history,
indigenous and ethnic studies, American historiography, and
anthropology.

This volume will revolutionize the field of communication ethics by
identifying a broad-based ethical theory of communication.
Returning to bedrock ethical principles found across cultures, such
as justice, reciprocity, and human dignity, Communication Ethics
and Universal Values transcends the world of mass media practice to
uncover a more humane and responsible code of values which society
as a whole can adopt and accept. The authors of Communication
Ethics and Universal Values collectively approach the foundational
issues of ethics from diverse perspectives and defend the
possibility of universal moral imperatives. As the authors of these
chapters examine the values in which their cultures are grounded, a
short list of ethical principles emerges--truth, respect for
another person's dignity, and no harm to the innocent. The ethical
standards that resonate within each of the six cultures represented
form the common ground on which one can stand and face today's
media crises and conundrums. The study process for this book has
demonstrated that cultures in all their differences reflect common
humanness and humanity. By returning to established universal
values, Communication Ethics and Universal Values provides
communication scholars are with inspiration and direction for their
ongoing work in mediation, conflict resolution, and relationship
and personal communication.
Between 1667 and 1792, the artists and amateurs of the Acade mie
Royale de Peinture et de Sculpture in Paris lectured on the Acade
mie's 'confe rences', foundational documents in the theory and
practice of art. These texts and the principles they embody guided
artistic practice and art theory in France and throughout Europe
for two centuries. In the 1800s, the Acade mie's influence waned,
and few of the 388 Acade mie lectures were translated into English.
Eminent scholars Christian Michel and Jacqueline Lichtenstein have
selected and annotated forty-two of the most representative
lectures, creating the first authoritative collection of the 'confe
rences' for readers of English. Essential to understanding French
art of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, these lectures
reveal what leading French artists looked for in a painting or
sculpture, the problems they sought to resolve in their works, and
how they viewed their own and others' artistic practice.

The Academie Royale assembled nearly all of the important French
artists working at the time, maintained a virtual monopoly on
teaching and exhibitions, enjoyed a priority in obtaining royal
commissions, and deeply influenced the artistic landscape in
France. Yet the institution remains little understood today: all
commentary on it, during its existence and since its abolition, is
based on prejudices, both favourable and critical, that have shaped
the way the institution has been appraised. This book takes a
different approach. Rather than judging the Academie Royale, Michel
unravels existing critical discourse to consider the nuances and
complexities of the academy's history, re-examining its goals, the
shifting power dynamics both within the institution and in the
larger political landscape, and its relationship with other French
academies and guilds.
