In it, he tells the story of his life and that of Innu culture in the northern parts of Labrador. The pages of this book are filled with the voice of Kaniuekutat giving his account of an Innu hunter's life and the problems and distress that have been caused by sedentarization and village life. Kaniuekutat invites us to see Innu society and culture from the inside, the way he lives it and reflects upon it. He was greatly concerned that young Innu may lose their traditional culture and the skills necessary to make a living as hunters, and wanted to convey a message: the Innu must take care of their language, their culture and their traditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e \t\u003ci\u003e“Through his own life story, Kaniuekutat speaks to many issues of importance facing the Innu in contemporary times, with an eye on tradition and the lessons of the past…A valuable text for students of anthropology, Native studies, and history.”\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cb\u003e  ·  Choice\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e \tAcknowledgements\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cb\u003eChapter 1.\u003c\/b\u003e Introduction\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cb\u003eChapter 2.\u003c\/b\u003e The day I became a hunter\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cb\u003eChapter 3.\u003c\/b\u003e Kauitatikumat: The boy who married a caribou\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cb\u003eChapter 4.\u003c\/b\u003e Gifts from the animal spirits\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cb\u003eChapter 5.\u003c\/b\u003e The shaking tent, Mishtapeu and the shaman\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cb\u003eChapter 6.\u003c\/b\u003e The power of myths\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cb\u003eChapter 7.\u003c\/b\u003e The elders always found a way to find animals\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cb\u003eChapter 8.\u003c\/b\u003e Atshen and the shaman\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cb\u003eChapter 9.\u003c\/b\u003e The myth of Aiasheu\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cb\u003eChapter 10.\u003c\/b\u003e To travel alone is dangerous\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cb\u003eChapter 11.\u003c\/b\u003e The myth of Mehutshu\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cb\u003eChapter 12.\u003c\/b\u003e Meminiteu and Atshen\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cb\u003eChapter13.\u003c\/b\u003e I dreamed the animals\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cb\u003eChapter 14.\u003c\/b\u003e Impact with no return\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cb\u003eChapter 15.\u003c\/b\u003e Atsheniss and the shaman\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cb\u003eChapter 16.\u003c\/b\u003e Kuekuatsheu made the world\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cb\u003eChapter17.\u003c\/b\u003e Only priests and God keep records\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cb\u003eChapter 18.\u003c\/b\u003e Tshiushuass\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cb\u003eChapter 19.\u003c\/b\u003e Innu-White relations: From mutual respect to mistrust\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cb\u003eChapter 20.\u003c\/b\u003e Alcohol didn’t solve my problems\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cb\u003eChapter 21.\u003c\/b\u003e I wanted to die\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cb\u003eChapter 22.\u003c\/b\u003e Some anthropological reflections\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \tGlossary of Innu terms\u003cbr\u003e \tBibliography\u003cbr\u003e \tIndex\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Berghahn Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51042738078039,"sku":"9781800730229","price":26.55,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781800730229.jpg?v=1750955403","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/i-dreamed-the-animals-kaniuekutat-the-life-of-an-innu-hunter-9781800730229","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
