  • Charles Eastman, Standing Bear, and Zitkala Sa
    Dakota/Lakota Progressive Writers: Charles Eastman, Standing Bear, and Zitkala Sa Gretchen Eick Friends University a cold bare pole I seemed to be, planted in a strange earth1 This paper focuses on three Dakota/Lakota progressive writers: Charles Alexander Eastman (Ohiyesa) of the Santee/Dakota; Luther Standing Bear (Ota Kte) of the Brulé; and Gertrude Simmons Bonnin (Zitkala Sa) of the Yankton. All three were widely read and popular “Indian writers,” who wrote about their traumatic childhoods, about being caught between two ways of living and perceiving, and about being coerced to leave the familiar for immersion in the ways of the whites. Eastman wrote dozens of magazine articles and eleven books, two of them auto- biographies, Indian Boyhood (1902) and From the Deep Woods to Civilization (1916).2 Standing Bear wrote four books, two of them autobiographies, My People, the Sioux (1928) and My Indian Boyhood (1931).3 Zitkala Sa wrote more than a dozen articles, several auto-biographical, and nine books, one autobiographical, American Indian Stories (1921), and the others Dakota stories, such as Old Indian Legends (1901). She also co- wrote an opera The Sun Dance. 4 1 Zitkala Sa, “An Indian Teacher Among the Indians,” American Indian Stories, Legends, and Other Writings, Cathy N.

  • Gendered Ideals in the Autobiographies of Charles Eastman and Luther Standing Bear

Signed Name of student: Sineke Elzinga Student number: S1012091 Abstract Gendered ideals dominant in nineteenth-century America have been significantly different from gendered ideals in Native American communities. In using their Indian boarding schools autobiographies as tools of protest, these Native writers had to compromise and accommodate these gendered ideals dominant in American society. This thesis analyzes how Zitkála-Šá, Luther Standing Bear and Charles Eastman have used the gendered ideals concerning the public and domestic sphere, emotion and reason in writing, and ideas about individuality and analyzes how this has affected the effectiveness of using their autobiographies as tools of protest for their people.

  • Semanario JAQUE
    Semanario JAQUE A partir del triunfo del NO al proyecto militar de la dictadura, plebiscitado en 1980, se abrió un espacio público que resulta central para entender la historia de aquellos años: los semanarios. Un hito en la historia del periodismo nacional. El proceso militar tenía una gran capacidad de presionar de muchas maneras a los grandes medios de la prensa escrita, radial o televisiva, entre ellas económicamente ya que el equilibrio de dichas empresas contaba imprescindiblemente con la publicidad estatal. Recuérdese que Uruguay es un pequeño país con un Estado grande. Surgió así a través de pequeñas empresas -cuyas publicaciones no tenían publicidad estatal- una válvula de escape en el oprimido ambiente de la dictadura: los semanarios. Entre los semanarios JAQUE tuvo un enorme impacto por su fuerte impronta de periodismo cultural y de investigación que desarrollaba al servicio del arco democrático, lo que supuso un gran tiraje semanal. Había semanarios para traducir la sensibilidad de las tres corrientes de opinión del país, pero todos mostraban un pluralismo que fue imprescindible para derrotar al autoritarismo. JAQUE se destacó en este campo, pero no debe olvidarse, por ejemplo, que Opinar tenía de columnistas permanentes a ciudadanos que, dada su conocida filiación política, luego tuvieron los más altos destinos públicos desde las otras vertientes de opinión. JAQUE articuló en ese tiempo por lo menos tres operaciones intelectuales y políticas trascendentes. 1.- Arrinconar al régimen autoritario. Por un lado, fue centralmente funcional a la estrategia del arco opositor particularmente entre el casi año que transcurre entre el fracaso de las negociaciones llamadas del Parque Hotel (1983) y las negociaciones del Club Naval (1984).
