Sharing the flower: A non-supernaturalistic theory of grace
Questioning the usual understanding of Native American religions as supernaturalistic, this study re-examines the ritual system of the Yaqui people of Arizona. First, it evaluates assumptions about the nature of religion—including God, grace, and prayer—which inform the ethnographical interpretation of Yaqui religion. Second, it reconstructs the Yaqui cosmological system and relates their complex cosmos to the traditional religious actors, the De…

Baptism and Alliance: The Symbolic Mediations of Religious Syncretism
This article studies the meaning baptism had for Jesuits and Canadian Montagnais. It outlines changing Jesuit policy for baptizing Native Americans; weighs the economic, political, medical, and social variables behind the emerg- ing Montagnais view that baptism offered a way of coping with historical crisis; assesses the shared religious and ideological ground which resulted; and, finally, demonstrates that individualistic Catholicism undercut th…

Montagnais Missionization in Early New France: The Syncretic Imperative
The Montagnais kin groups which entered the Canadian mission at Sillery in 1639 throw signrficant light on the process of religious change. The Jesuit Relations richly document the Montagnais’ culture, and describe in detail their struggle to comprehend Catholicism. As a result, it is possible to achieve an Indian history grounded in the reality assumptions of a particular Native American people. The Montagnais demonstrate that when religious cha…

The Bias of Colonial Law: English Paranoia and the Abenaki Arena of King Philip's War, 1675-1678
ALTHOUGH legal issues have figured significantly in the . historiography of King Philip's War, little more than the structural outlines of the legal conflict have been explored. Most histories do not examine the differing cultural assumptions Englishmen and Indians made about social and legal order. Recent studies emphasize the legal irritations of early Indian-White relations which eventually drove the New England Algonkians to war to defend the…
