  • The Western Novels of Virgil D. Boyles and Kate Boyles Bingham
    Copyright © 1993 by the South Dakota State Historical Society. All Rights Reserved. Fictionalizing South Dakota from a Feminist Point of View: The Western Novels of Virgil D. Boyles and Kate Boyles Bingham RUTH ANN ALEXANDER South Dakota history lends itself to fiction because of its conflict, drama, and color. It is full of good stories. More than one literary artist—Ole R0ivaag, Frederick Manfred, and Hamlin Garland, to name a few—has used incidents from the state's past to create novels. Like all artists, these authors shaped the material to express their own visions of reality. Often, these imaginative renderings in- tensified the South Dakota experience for readers, conveying it more vividly than factual and prosaic accounts could. Less well known practitioners of the art of fictionalizing South Dakota history are the brother-and-sister writing combination of Kate Boyles Bingham and Virgil D. Boyles. Together, they published five novels no longer in print: Langford of the Three Bars (1907), The Homesteaders (1909), The Spirit Trail (1910), The Hoosier Volunteer (1914), and A Daughter of the Badlands (1922). The Hoosier Volunteer is based upon the Civil War experiences of their father when he lived in Indiana, but the other four books have South Dakota set- tings. Attempting to recreate actual moments in the development of the state, Bingham and Boyles often relied upon specific historical material to form the plot structure of their novels. The books do not purport to be history, however. Kate Boyles Bingham infused them with her ideas and feelings (Virgil Boyles assisted with plot Copyright © 1993 by the South Dakota State Historical Society.

  • South Dakota Women Writers and the Emergence of the Pioneer Heroine
    Copyright © 1983 by the South Dakota State Historical Society. All Rights Reserved. South Dakota Women Writers and the Emergence of the Pioneer Heroine RUTH ANN ALEXANDER The white women who settled Dakota Territory in the 1870s and 1880s did not write novels. After the grueling work of making a home out of a dugout, a sod hut, or a tarpaper shanty and of feeding, clothing, and nurturing their families, they had neither time nor energy for such imaginative creation. If they filched a few moments from their labors to write anything, their literary expression took the form of letters, diaries, or journals.' This 1. Laura Bower Van Nuys, for instance, explains that her mother wrote letters in a "telegraphic style" because of the pressures of washing, cooking, and cleaning for her large family, She quotes from one of her mother's letters to her daughter: "I have just put the girls to bed Lulu is quite sick with a cold Nettie has one of her cry- ing spells and Rose is sick with sympathy with her Quinnie has a touch of sore throat and Squiz fell against the boiler and hurt her eyebrow but they will all be well in the morning and able to eat breakfast" (Laura Bower Van Nuys, The Family Band: From the Missouri to the Black Hills, 1881-1890, Pioneer Heritage Series, no. 5 [Lincoln: University of Nebraska Press, 1961|, p. 47). Copyright © 1983 by the South Dakota State Historical Society. All Rights Reserved. 178 Soutk Dakota History source material has only recently been discovered and explored by scholars for the light it sheds on the settlement of the West,' and it is greatly modifying our interpretation of the western ex- perience, an interpretation that has heretofore focused on the ex- ploits of male figures — scouts, trappers, soldiers, traders, miners, cowboys, outlaws, and sodbusters.

  • Native American Cinema: Indigenous Vision, Domestic Space, and Historical Trauma
    Native American Cinema: Indigenous Vision, Domestic Space, and Historical Trauma A thesis presented to the faculty of the College of Fine Arts of Ohio University In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Master of Arts Jason Mayo May 2013 © 2013 Jason Mayo. All Rights Reserved. 2 The thesis titled Native American cinema: Indigenous Vision, Domestic Space, and Historical Trauma by JASON MAYO has been approved for the School of Film and the College of Fine Arts by Ofer Eliaz Assistant Professor of Film Madeleine Scott Dean, College of Fine Arts 3 Abstract MAYO, JASON, M.A., May 2013, Film Studies Native American cinema: Indigenous vision, domestic space, and historical trauma Director of Thesis: Ofer Eliaz This thesis argues that Native American cinema defines Indigenous identity by utilizing three modes of representation that revolve around the vision of American Indian protagonists, the familial space of American Indian homes, and the figuration of historical trauma through Indigenous temporal structures. Whereas Hollywood media presents American Indians through the vision of white protagonists, positions the camera outside of American Indian homes, and shows historical trauma through Western structures of temporality. 4 Dedication To Ofer Eliaz and all my Cherokee relations 5 Acknowledgements For his steadfast encouragement, patience, and assistance, I thank my thesis advisor, Dr. Ofer Eliaz. Without Dr. Ofer Eliaz’s support, this thesis would not have been possible. My deepest gratitude also goes to Professor Louis-Georges Schwartz, Michael Gillespie, and the director of the School of Film at Ohio University, Steve Ross, who took the time to offer their support, advice, and patience throughout my two years as a graduate student at Ohio University.
