Editorial Asian Canadian Critique Beyond the Nation Christopher Lee and Christine Kim As we write this editorial, we have before us four special issues of Canadian Literature that have been dedicated to Asian Canadian literature. In the 199s, special issues were published on “South Asian Connections” (#132 [1992]) and “East Asian-Canadian Connections” (#14 [1994]). In editorials published in both issues, then-editor W. H. New grappled with the object posited by their very topics. On the one hand, writing by or about South and East Asian Canadians had yielded a significant but (at least at that time) neglected body of work. On the other hand, New is acutely aware that these very categories may be misleading, incomplete, or even complicit in histories of racism. Writing about Asian characters in Canadian fiction, he says, “human sympathy can sometimes still function as a barrier, expressing solidarity at one remove; sometimes it is an act that conceptualizes itself as generosity rather than as a tacit declaration

  • Ecosystem Use by Indigenous People in an Oregon Coastal Landscape
    3220 Donald B. Zobel, Department of Botany and Plant Pathology, Oregon State University, Corvallis, Oregon 97331- 2902 e-mail: [email protected] Ecosystem Use by Indigenous People in an Oregon Coastal Landscape Abstract Data regarding probable uses of biological materials by the indigenous people of the Salmon River-Cascade Head area of the Oregon coast were used to estimate the peoples use of various ecosystems near villages. Of 308 uses identified, 256 were attributable to a given species; 124 species were identified. All local ecosystems were important sources of organisms for the people, with no apparent concentration of highly used species in any particular ecosystem. One species was cultivated, one domesticated, and five acquired by trade. Four major plant resources, camas, yew, hazel, and beargrass, are not known from the Cascade Head landscape, but may have been available from elsewhere in village territory. House construction without use of cedar planks, as indicated by ethnographic records, may have resulted from the paucity of western redcedar in the Salmon River lowlands. The scarcity of several widely used taxa near coastal village sites, especially western redcedar, may have limited the wealth of this indigenous population, even on the resource-rich Oregon coast. Introduction Tillamook, who resided near Cascade Head on the north-central Oregon Coast, in an area where Indigenous people used resources primarily from information about historic and modern plant and the landscape in which they resided. The natural animal species distribution is unusually complete. distribution of resources governed the pattern and The list of taxa used was compared to historic richness of their lives.

  • The Spirit of the Tillamook People by Brian D
    The Spirit of the Tillamook People By Brian D. Ratty © 2016 The terrain of the Northwest Coastline is rugged and untamed, in many ways as forbidding as the natives that flourished on its shore. This narrow strip of land was home to dozens of different Indian nations. Just south of Tillamook Bay were many other nations, including the Siletz and the Siuslaw, while to the north were the Clatsop and Chinook tribes. Unlike most inland Indians, these nations didn’tnomadically follow game or move with the seasons. Instead, they stayed close to the bays and the sea, establishing permanent homes and villages. Within each Indian nation there were tribes, and within these tribes there were bands, and within these bands there were different clans. Each nation lived to the dictates of the resources Mother Nature provided, and their ability to hunt and gather food. When Captain Robert Gray discovered Tillamook Bay in 1788, the Tillamook nation numbered roughly 2,200 natives. These people lived in nine different villages, from the Nestucca River in the south to the Nehalem Bay in the north. The largest Tillamook village was Kilharhurst, which occupied the land that is the present-day site of Garibaldi, Oregon. The river next to this village was called Kilharnar, known today as the Miami River. This village had about fifty lodges and five hundred inhabitants. Over time, the Tillamooks assumed most of the customs, habits and dress of their powerful neighbors to the north, the Chinooks. Although both nations spoke the Salish language, their dialects were so different that, when they talked, they had to sign, as well.

The Mountain of a Thousand Holes Shipwreck Traditions and Treasure Hunting on Oregon’s North Coast CAMERON LA FOLLETTE, DENNIS GRIFFIN, AND DOUGLAS DEUR EURO-AMERICANS in coastal communities conflated and amplified Native American oral traditions of shipwrecks in Tillamook County, increasingly focusing the stories on buried treasure. This focus led to a trickle, and then a procession, of treasure-seekers visiting the northern Oregon coast, reach- ing full crescendo by the mid to late twentieth century. The seekers’ theo- ries ranged from the fairly straightforward to the wildly carnivalesque, with many bizarre permutations. Neahkahnie Mountain and its beaches became the premier treasure-hunting sites in Oregon, based on the mountain’s prominence in popular lore, linked to unverified stories about the wreck of a Spanish ship.

  • A Glance at the Background and Current Directions of Cultural Diplomacy in Eastern Asia
    A Glance at the Background and Current Directions of Cultural Diplomacy in Eastern Asia by Sam Powney The Regional Economic and Political Context: Pan-Asian Forums When talking about East Asia, it is important to try to define exactly what the term means. According to the United Nations (UN) definition, 'Eastern Asia', includes China, Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan, Japan, North and South Korea, and Mongolia. As always when trying to draw regional boundaries, the line seems arbitrary wherever it is placed. In fact the term exists largely to distinguish North-East Asia from South East Asia and Russia, although both those broad lines are of debatable usefulness. After all, in the north, the national borders that separate northern China, the Republic of Mongolia, Kazakhstan and Russia, do not strictly follow ethnic boundaries, and most South-east Asian countries have strong links with Chinese culture, many with large Chinese-speaking populations. The interconnected relationship between countries across the broad sweep of north-east Asia, South-east Asia and even the Indian subcontinent are becoming more apparent with the gradual enlargement of pan-Asian economic forums that began in 1967 with the creation of ASEAN (Association of South East Asian Nations). ASEAN expanded over the years, and now includes Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines,Singapore, Thailand, Brunei, Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar, and Vietnam. The ASEAN Plus Three meetings (ASEAN members plus China, Japan and South Korea), began in 1997 and were institutionalized two years later at the first such summit by that name, held in Manila. On December 14th 2005 the first East Asia Summit, including all the ASEAN Plus Three members as well as India, Australia, and New Zealand, was held in Kuala Lumpur.
