A compelling study that charts the influence of Indigenous thinkers on Franz Boas, the founder of modern anthropology
°°°
"This landmark collection offers a pioneering model for all intellectual historians, showing native peoples to be “agents of their own forms of globalization” who shaped some of our most distinctive commitments."— Samuel Moyn, coeditor of Global Intellectual History
“An important contribution toward deepening work on native intellectual history, in its influence on Euro-American ideas & on its own terms. . . . Along with benefiting from the individual essays in this impressive volume, scholars from a number of fields in the humanities & social sciences, including historians focusing on native people, colonialism, the U.S. Progressive Era, & social-scientific thought, should grapple with the editors’ argument.”— Sean P. Harvey, Journal of American History
°°°
In 1911, the publication of Franz Boas’s The Mind of Primitive Man challenged widely held claims about race & intelligence that justified violence & inequality. Now, a group of leading scholars examines how this groundbreaking work hinged on relationships with a global circle of Indigenous thinkers who used Boasian anthropology as a medium for their ideas. Contributors also examine how Boasian thought intersected with the work of major modernist figures, demonstrating how ideas of diversity & identity sprang from colonization & empire.°°°
