  • "In the Glory of the Sunset": Arthur Farwell, Charles Wakefield Cadman, and Indianism in American Musk
    "In the Glory of the Sunset": Arthur Farwell, Charles Wakefield Cadman, and Indianism in American Musk BethE. Levy Although the portrayal of Native Americans in Euro­ American art does not begin with Longfellow's Song of Hiawatha (1855), it would be difficult to overestimate the im­ portance of this narrative poemjn shaping later nineteenth­ and early twentieth-century representations of Indian life. Generations of school children have memorized and chant­ ed its infectious lines: Should you ask me, whence these stories, Whence these legends and traditions, With the odors of the forest, With the dew and damp of meadows, With the curling smoke of wigwams, With the rushing of great rivers, With their frequent repetitions{ And their wild reverberations, As of thunder in the mountains? I should answer, I should tell you, "From the forests and the prairies, From the great lakes of the Northland, From the land of the Ojibways, From the land of the Dacotahs, From the mountains, moors, and fen-lands Where the heron, the Shuh-shuh-gah, Feeds among the reeds and rushes. I repeat them as I heard them From the lips of Nawadaha, The musician, the sweet singer." "There he sang of Hiawatha, Sang the Song of Hiawatha, Sang his wondrous birth and being, How he prayed and how he fasted, 128 repercussions Spring-Fall 1996 129 How he lived, and toiled, and suffered, That the tribes of men might prosper, That he might advance his people!" Ye who love a nation's legends, Love the ballads of a people, That like voices from afar off Call to us to pause and listen, Speak in tones so plain and childlike, Scarcely can the ear distinguish Whether they are sung or spoken;,.­ Listen to this Indian Legend, To this Song of Hiawatha!l Hiawatha was coupled with ethnographic studies, it was translated into Latin (presumably for student use), it was parodied by Lewis Carroll, among others, and actresses gave public recitals of its most popular passages.

  • A Visit to the Macdowell Colony During World War 1
    VISIT TO THE MACDOWELL COLONY DURING WORLD WAR I By Katherine Haynes Gatch Letter from Katherine H. Gatch to her family (Josephine and Albert Gatch) in Milford Ohio. Postmarked Peterboro [now Peterborough], NH, [Monday] June 17, 1918. The writer, a member of the class of 1921 at Wellesley College, writes from the MacDowell Colony, where she had gone at the end of her freshman year, with a classmate (also a fellow-graduate of Miss Kendrick’s School in Cincinnati), Mary Elizabeth (“M.E.”) Ritchey. Peterboro Sunday Morning [June 16, 1918] Dear Family, I have been a ‘nawty’ beast about writing these last three weeks but honestly, I haven’t had time to breathe or sleep, much less write letters, these last days especially. I might as well give you events in chronological order (a History Course under one Judith Williams instills that into one’s system) You should have seen us leaving Wellesley! We were the last out of Crofton and they were manifestly glad to see us go as the house had to be ready for alumnae. My trunks were ready to go at nine o’clock in the morning but not Mary Elizabeth’s. She is an erratic backer to say the least. I did all the tearing up of the room and packing of room things. I even took down all the screwed articles—by Jove, Mother, you put those curtain rod holders up to stay! I at last even wrapped up many sundry articles of M.E.’s because it looked as tho she would never be ready for the 12:58.

Adovasio, Ph.D. ORGET THE DIORAMAS YOU’VE SEEN IN NATURAL HISTORY MUSEUMS of fur-clad male hunters fear- lessly attacking mammoths while timid women hide behind boulders. In this lecture, based on his recent book (The FInvisible Sex: Uncovering the True Roles of Women in Prehistory, by J. D. Adovasio, Olga Soffer and Jake Page, New York, Harper-Collins, 2007), Dr. Adovasio will present an exciting new look at prehistory. He and his co-authors argue that “female humans have been the chief engine in the unprecedentedly high level of human sociability, were the inventors of the most useful of tools, have shared equally in the provision of food for human societies, almost certainly drove the human invention of language, and were the ones who invented agriculture.” r.
