Earthworks Rising: Mound Building in Native Art & Literature

December 3, 7:00 pm | Kane Hall

In this Katz Distinguished Lecture,聽Chadwick Allen聽draws from his new book manuscript,聽Earthworks Rising: Mound Building in Native Art, Literature, and Performance, in which he investigates how Native writers and artists engage ancient earthworks in contemporary productions. What emerges is a counter-tradition that centers Indigenous worldviews and privileges Indigenous research methodologies鈥攁 paradigm we might call Indigenous humanities.

Allen, Professor and Co-director of the Center for American Indian and Indigenous Studies, will address myths of Mound Builders in the nineteenth century and their lingering influence today.聽 What accounts for this ongoing appeal within dominant discourses? And how have Indigenous intellectuals worked to imagine their way outside the myth to represent the complexity and multiple functions of the diverse earthen structures actually built by their ancestors?
