The Production of Cultural Heritage Discourses: Political Economy and the Intersections of Public and Private Heritage in Yap State, Federated States of Micronesia by Stefan Michael Krause A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Anthropology College of Arts and Sciences University of South Florida Major Professor: Kevin A. Yelvington, D.Phil. Antoinette T. Jackson, Ph.D. S. Elizabeth Bird, Ph.D. William Cummings, Ph.D. M. Scott Solomon, Ph.D. Date of Approval: July 1, 2016 Keywords: FSM, ethnography, discourse analysis, historic preservation, applied heritage practice, critical heritage studies Copyright © 2016, Stefan Michael Krause DEDICATION This dissertation is dedicated to my father, Meinhard “Dutch” Krause, who passed away unexpectedly in 2015. Dad was my biggest supporter throughout all my years pursuing my passion in anthropology. I love and miss him tremendously. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS There are so many people who I owe a great deal of thanks in helping to make this dissertation possible. First and foremost, I am incredibly grateful to all my friends and colleagues in the Pacific who have so graciously shared their time and experiences with me over the two-plus years I was with them. I am thankful for the efforts of Adam Thompson who helped in selecting me for the position of the FSM cultural anthropologist and who gave me valuable perspectives that helped me transition into my role working with the HPO’s. I am extremely grateful for confidence and support given to me by my supervisor Augustine Kohler as well. Gus is a hardworking but extremely grounded leader who helps to make government work more enjoyable with his positive outlook and personality. It was indeed a joy working for him. For my time in Yap, I also owe many thanks to Yap State HPO Officer Francis Reg as well who was one of the first to patiently mentor me on Yapese culture and the important protocols that should be respected on the islands. Both Francis and Gus were always there for me and supported my dissertation research in numerous ways. I am also very thankful to have worked in an HPO office full wonderful staff who could not have been more welcoming, embracing me as a colleague and friend from the start. Specifically, I wish to thank my friends Falownug, Runman, Michelle, Joey, Leo, and Annjanette. And I am especially grateful to both Peter Ruechugrad and Peter Tairuwipey who worked with me on several projects and became dear friends and cultural mentors as well. Since I must ensure anonymity for research participants, I cannot name them here. But I am so very thankful for their contributions to my study and their sincere support in assisting me with understanding the local views and values of Yapese cultural heritage. All interviews went much longer than I planned and this was due to the graciousness of everyone involved who without hesitation agreed to sit with me for long periods and share their thoughts extensively. And I also must thank all my new Yapese friends and family from the two villages that welcomed me into their lives. The Datmag family in Meerur are among the kindest and most gracious people I have ever known. I truly miss them all. Next, I wish to thank Tharngan and Ganang in Wechelob for unwavering hospitality and all the time we spent together. And I especially want to thank Pops (Yoruw) for being a kind, thoughtful and extremely helpful landlord and great friend. Living in Wachelob and Meerur was a wonderful experience that I will never forget and besides feeling a sense of community that I have never felt elsewhere, I know I now also have family to return to someday in the future. To all of my Yapese friends, family and colleagues, kammagargad. Alongside my Pacific friends, I am incredibly grateful to have an academic mentor in Kevin Yelvington who has guided me throughout my journey with support and encouragement while at the same time pushing me to my limits as a scholar. I cannot express how much I have gained professionally and personally through this process as a result of Dr. Yelvington’s deep commitment to and engagement with his students. I am also sincerely grateful to Dr. Antoinette Jackson for the knowledge and direction she has provided me throughout the years I have been engaged with heritage studies and practices. Likewise, I am incredibly fortunate to have learned from and worked with Dr. Elizabeth Bird who has been one of the most generous and thoughtful mentors a graduate student could ever have. I must also extend my gratitude to Dr. William Cummings and Dr. Scott Solomon for their dedication to my efforts and the valuable comments and suggestions they provided which have no doubt improved my work here on numerous levels. In short, I could not have asked for a better dissertation committee. Their combined attention to my academic scholarship has been inspiring and I hope to “pay it forward” by embodying a similar passion towards helping my future students achieve their highest goals. I am most thankful as well for the unyielding support and love of my wife Kelsey who has sacrificed much along our journey to this point. As any Ph.D. student can attest, there are times when our research and writing can be especially difficult and stressful. Kelsey has always been the best partner I could ever have during this effort and has at every turn provided the perfect means of support needed when times get tough. I especially want to thank my mother Mary Jo Krause as well. Mom and Dad have always given me everything I ever needed and more over the years during my studies. My mother has been my biggest cheerleader on my academic journey and the love, support and encouragement she has provided truly made my work easier—especially when I was so far away for so long. The motherly support with care packages sent and the untold number of times she assisted with my affairs while away can never truly be repaid. Thank you Mom. You went above and beyond your maternal duties and I love you tremendously. One of the saddest results of the long process it takes to earn a doctorate degree in anthropology is that in my case it has meant that I cannot thank the one man who has been by my side since day one, my father. I know how proud he would be of me today had he not passed on so suddenly last year. Seeing me finally obtain my Ph.D. would have been the best gift I could have given him for all the years of incredible support he has given me as I followed my dreams. I love you so much Dad and I am just sorry I was not able to finish while you were still with us.

  • Leg Child Revised TRES
    van Binsbergen, Wim M.J., 2020, The leg child in global cultural history: A distributional exercise in comparative mythology, at: http://www.quest- journal.net/shikanda/topicalities/leg_child,pdf In this paper we shall address an interessting and wide-spread mytheme that nonetheless is little known outside the circle of comparative mythologists: the leg child. In comparative mythology, the leg child is a mythical anthropomorphic figure born from a human body otherwise than via the normal birth channel; cf . van Binsbergen 2018: 417, where I wrote approximately (text considerably adapted): .... the mytheme of the leg child (NarCom 12b). This is a common motif, indicating a mythical figure who was born, not by passing through the normal birth channel, but through a thigh, armpit, waist, occiput or any other part of the human body except the birth channel. The type case is from Ancient Greek mythology, where Dionysus was sewn into his father Zeus's thigh, and born from there, after his mother Semele had been burned to death under the hot splendour of Zeus' lightning.(...) Quite a few mythical protagonists worldwide appear as leg children, including Ancient Egyptian Seth born from his mother's side, Thoth from his father's skull (Bonnet 1952: 702 f.), cf. Greek Athena from her father's skull (and when Hephaestus – who incidentally, as a smith was the very one to split Zeus’s skull on that occasion – in sexual arousal ejaculated against Athena's thigh who in disgust wiped off the sperm with a handful of wool and cast it to the Earth, who immediately responded by producing Erichthonius [ – by an ancient popular etymology, ‘Wool-Earthy’ – , ] this makes the latter also a leg child although he was reputedly borne by Gaia / Earth).

  • Learning Kin Terms
    Parkin, Learning kin terms LEARNING KIN TERMS: A SOCIAL ANTHROPOLOGICAL PERSPECTIVE ROBERT PARKIN1 The first observation on the topic of how children learn kin terms from a social anthropological perspective must be that not very much work has been done on it, despite the emergence of a corpus of work on the anthropology of children in the last half-century or so. This may be because of a general rejection within the profession of an early attempt at explanation, that of the Polish-British anthropologist Bronisław Malinowski in the 1920s. His explanation was bound up with the different but related theory of extensionism, which, by contrast, is far from dead. In order to understand his explanation, it is necessary to go into what is meant by extensionism in some detail. This states, essentially, that where primary kin one genealogical step away from ego share terms with relatives more than one step away, the nearer designation is the ‘focal’ one, other specifications of the term being ‘extensions’ of it. Examples include the well-known terminological equations father = father’s brother, mother = mother’s sister, sibling = parallel cousin (i.e. mother’s sister’s children and father’s brother’s children) and child = same-sex sibling’s child (i.e. a man’s brother’s child and a woman’s sister’s child). In the first two cases, father and mother are the focal specifications of their respective terms. This position also started with Malinowski, and it has been followed by anthropologists influenced by him, including Meyer Fortes, Harold Scheffler and his collaborator, the linguist Floyd Lounsbury and Warren Shapiro.

Interviews with these students and with less-educated fellow islanders were taped to: 1) ascertain which aspects of the aboriginal belief structure, as preserved in oral tradition, have been most resistant to change; and, 2) an attempt to establish if the students are fairly representative of their traditional belief and value system despite their American-sponsored educations. Some of the findings were: that student belief in, and knowledge of the old mythological and cosmological constructs was generally low; that belief was high in magic, native medicine, and spirits; and that young and old alike were receptive to attempts at cultural preservations. The report contains a summary of the study, a discussion of study background, a description of methods used in collection of the folktales, analyses of the oral traditions, 16 references, and a bibliography containing over 100 entries.

  • History of the Pacific Islands Studies Program at the University of Hawaii: 1950-198
    HISTORY OF THE PACIFIC ISLANDS STUDIES PROGRAM AT THE UNIVERSITY OF HAWAII: 1950-198 by AGNES QUIGG Workinq Paper Series Pacific Islands Studies Program canters for Asian cmd Pacific Studies University of Hawaii at Manoa EDITOR'S OOTE The Pacific Islands Studies Program. often referred to as PIP, at the University of Hawaii had its beginnings in 1950. These were pre-statehood days. The university was still a small territorial institution (statehood came in 1959), and it is an understatement to say that the program had very humble origins. Subsequently, it has had a very checkered history and has gone through several distinct phases. These and the program's overall history are clearly described and well analyzed by Ms. Agnes Quigg. This working paper was originally submitted by Ms. Quigg as her M.A. thesis in Pacific Islands Studies. Ms. Quigg' is a librarian in the serials division. Hamnlton Library, University of Hawaii. Earlier in this decade, she played a crucial role in the organization of the microfilming of the archives of the U.S. Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands, Office of the High CommiSSioner, Saipan, Northern Marianas. The archives are now on file at Hamilton Library. Formerly, Ms. Quigg was a librarian for the Kamehameha Schools in Honolulu. R. C.

  • The Value of Comparison Transcript of the Lewis Henry Morgan Lecture Given on November 13, 2013
    2014 | HAU-Morgan Lectures Initiative TRANSCRIPT The value of comparison Transcript of the Lewis Henry Morgan Lecture given on November 13, 2013 Peter VAN DER VEER, Max Planck Institute for the Study of Religious and Ethnic Diversity, Göttingen The HAU-Morgan Lectures Initiative A HAU and University of Rochester Collaboration It is an honor and a privilege to be invited to the University of Rochester to give the Morgan Lecture, a veritable anthropological institution. I want to salute Lewis Henry Morgan and a previous Morgan Lecturer, Ward Goodenough, who both contributed substantially to the study of kinship. Morgan is still a household name among Chinese anthropologists due to the influence he has had on Marx and Engels. It is an irony of history that the ghost of this brilliant capitalist still haunts the academic institutions of Communist China. Ward Goodenough who recently passed away and was my (very senior) colleague at the University of Pennsylvania in the late eighties delivered the Lewis Henry Morgan Lectures in 1968 titled “Description and comparison in cultural anthropology.” Goodenough argued that the description of the basic emic categories, primarily those of kin- ship that one’s informants used could be used to reconstruct their culture, as if it was a language. In my talk today I am revisiting the topic of comparison, but not from the angle of kinship. I will focus instead on the study of cultural fragments using a holistic conceptualization that problematizes the “view from the West.” This work is licensed under the Creative Commons | © Peter van der Veer.
