    UNCOMFORTABLE MIRRORS: RELIGION AND MIMETIC VIOLENCE IN CONTEMPORARY CANADIAN NATIVE LITERATURE by Ken Derry A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Department of the Centre for the Study of Religion University of Toronto © Copyright by Ken Derry, 2009 ABSTRACT “Uncomfortable Mirrors: Religion and Mimetic Violence in Contemporary Canadian Native Literature” Ph.D. Thesis, 2009 Ken Derry Centre for the Study of Religion University of Toronto This study considers religion and mimetic violence in the work of four contemporary Canadian Native writers: Maria Campbell, Beatrice Culleton, Thomas King, and Basil Johnston. The mimetic violence examined is both social (the colonial attempt to remake the colonized into a reflection of the dominant culture) and personal (inter-Native conflict in which participants mirror one another in their struggle for a mutually covetted object). In order to investigate the former, I rely on the work of Homi K. Bhabha on colonial mimicry and hybridity; to examine the latter, I employ René Girard’s model of mimetic desire and violence. The principal academic contexts to this work are the study of Native literature and the academic study of religion, including the sub-field of Religion and Literature. After reviewing the relevant literature in these fields, and examining mimetic violence in key texts by the Native authors listed, I make several concluding points. First, I argue that a causal link between colonial violence and inter-Native mimetic violence is evident in the category of Native literature labelled by Thomas King as “polemical.” This includes Campbell’s Halfbreed, Culleton’s In Search of April Raintree, and King’s own Green Grass, Running Water.

  • An Annotated Bibliography of Books, Dvds, and Internet Resources on LGBTQ/Two- Spirit Native Americans and First Nations People
    Page 1 of 20 An Annotated Bibliography of Books, DVDs, and Internet Resources on LGBTQ/Two- Spirit Native Americans and First Nations People Compiled by Peter Brunette. Approved by the GLBTRT Resources Committee. Last revised November 8, 2016. Table of Contents Introduction 2 I. General Nonfiction 4 II. Memoirs 8 III. Literary Anthologies 9 IV. Fiction 10 V. Poetry 11 VI. Drama 14 VII. Films 14 VIII. Internet Resources 16 Index 18 Page 2 of 20 Introduction This bibliography includes resources about gay men, lesbians, bisexuals, transgender persons, and two-spirit persons who identify as Native American in the United States and First Nations people in Canada. The books listed in this bibliography have all been published in print, but some may be available as e-books. The sections of this bibliography contain general nonfiction, memoirs, literary anthologies, novels and short story collections, plays, and films. A section on internet resources, including local two- spirit organizations in the United States and Canada, has also been included. Each book and film has a link to the OCLC WorldCat record where you can discover what libraries hold the item. We plan to update this resource in the future. If you have any suggestions or updates, please contact the GLBTRT Resources Committee. A note on terminology: Indigenous identities are deeply complex, and concepts of gender and sexual diversity have many names. Different tribes and communities have different terms and understandings--for example, winkte (Lakota) and nádleehé (Navajo)--that do not always translate into Eurowestern concepts of sexuality and gender. With these tribal- specific concepts in mind, this resource does not prescribe a universal umbrella term, but offers the inclusive acronym LGBTQ and the contemporary term two-spirit.

  • Property of the Estate of Blema and H. Arnold Steinberg
    ProPerty of the estAte of BlemA And h. Arnold steinBerg member of the board of governors of McGill University, and later as governor emeritus, and founding chairman of the board of the McGill University Health Centre, among other titles. All of this led to one of the most gratifying roles of his extraordinary life, when in 2009 he was appointed chancellor of McGill University. Upon his passing, Heather Munroe-Blum, vice-chancellor of McGill, reflected: “Arnold was a prince of a man. He shaped McGill, Montreal and Canada in deeply progressive and posi- tive ways—uniquely, indelibly. He influenced everyone he met through his gracious warmth, joyous optimism and incisive intelligence.” Blema Steinberg wore many hats and was exceptionally accomplished. She too was known for her remarkable dedication to McGill University and her continuous philanthropic efforts. She was a double graduate of McGill, where she completed her BA and PhD, and a graduate of Cornell University, where she completed her MA. She became a professor in 1961 and was appointed to McGill’s Department of Political Science, where she taught for more than 40 years, before being honoured with the title of professor emerita following her retirement in 2001. During her tenure, she focused her research efforts on the psy- chological factors of decision-making and character studies of leaders in politics. Blema authored many academic publications and, most notably, two books—Women in Power: The Personalities Blema and H. Arnold Steinberg and Leadership Styles of Indira Gandhi, Golda Meir and Margaret Photo: Owen Egan Thatcher and Shame and Humiliation: Presidential Decision-Making Courtesy of McGill University on Vietnam.

The views expressed herein are those of the authors and not necessarily those of the funding agencies or the All Nations Hope AIDS Network. Content compiled by Wesley Keewatin, Two-Spirit Project Coordinator Edited by Bev Cardinal, Project Consultant Regina, Saskatchewan March 2009 All Nations Hope AIDS Network - March 2009 3 DISCLAIMER Many teachings introduced in the Two-Spirit Project manual were not defined by which First Nation group gave the specific teaching. Each teaching is only a reference and each individual is invited to find his/her own identity within his/her own First Nation group. The teachings vary from nation to nation although there are similarities. These teachings were introduced to show the significance of the teachings and how they may apply today. It is very important for the individual to find his/her own First Nation’s teachings because it is in the relevance of the teachings that connections are made with our ancestral memory. It is with this connection that the healing journey begins for many Aboriginal people. This manual also relies heavily on external sources and materials. Every effort has been made to accurately identify and credit the primary sources of this information.
