    Extractions: Louise Erdrich (Chippewa) (b. 1954) Contributing Editor: Andrew O. Wiget One problem in teaching Love Medicine is the intensity of religious experience, which many students in today's secular society may have difficulty relating to. Another is the surrealistic imagery that Marie Lazarre uses in describing her relationship with Sister Leopolda. And yet a third is understanding the historical and cultural context of reservation life at this period of time in the 1930s. In terms of the historical and cultural context, I would point out to students that Indian reservations in the 1930s were notorious for their poverty, their high mortality rate, their chronic unemployment, and the destruction of the fabric of Native American social and cultural forms. One of the principal policies of the United States government was to transform Native Americans into carbon copies of Anglo-Americans, and one of the principal ways that they hoped to accomplish this, ever since the Grant administration in the 1870s, was through religion. During the 1870s, the Native American communities were allocated among the various major Christian sects, and missionary activity was understood to be an agent of social and cultural transformation. The objective was to get rid of the Indian while saving the man. Culture was imagined as a number of practices and behaviors and customs, whichif they could be changedwould eliminate all the historic obstacles to the Indians' participation in Anglo-American culture. Of course, if they were eliminated, so would the Indian nest be eliminated. Religion then is hardly a simple spiritual force, but an agent of the interests of the Euro-American majority. Such an understanding, I think, should help students appreciate the intensity with which Marie and Sister Leopolda enter their confrontation.

58. Louise Erdrich ~ A Feast Of Words
    louise erdrich A Feast of Words. For my review Review. Minnesota is turning into a hotbed of Indian writers, and louise erdrich is the best of them.  
    http://dancingbadger.com/erdrich.htm
    
    Extractions: For my review: Minnesota is turning into a hotbed of Indian writers , and Louise Erdrich is the best of them. Her milieu is the old Turtle Mountain/Pembina Reservation, which sprawled across the Red River halfway into North Dakota. Her books wind around a group of families through a half-dozen generations, and her characters appear and reappear as the landscape resolved to new definition. The books are very much like vision itself, with the play of distance and focus and light. Tales of Burning Love , which one reviewer described as a mainstream novel outside her standard venue, actually begins by introducing us to the man that June Morrissey walked away from, that fateful night in Love Medicine , and ends with Jack Mauser back 'home,' building the Bingo Palace for Lyman Lamartine. Gerry Nanapush, Erdrich's mythic remaking of Leonard Peltier, and the Lamartines all play a significant part in the action. Nanapush's wife Dot Adare, Jack's fifth wife and once the protagonist of The Beet Queen )? The nuns? What new territory? Check your notes.

    Extractions: Editor's note The Christian Science Monitor archive includes stories dating back to 1980. Some early articles lack sufficient formatting, and will appear as one long column without paragraph breaks. We apologize for the aesthetics and hope that the information will still be of value to you. Louise Erdrich finds more miracles - Any summary of Louise Erdrich's new novel risks crimping its striking variety and imaginative power. "The Last Report on the Miracles at Little No Horse" is one of those wonderful books that's as memorable for its parts as it is for its whole. (Excerpts have already appeared in The New Yorker.) The story returns to the Ojibwe natives of North Dakota depicted in her earlier novels, including "Love Medicine," for which she won the National Book Critics Circle Award in 1983. Although fans will recognize characters from those books, this novel approaches the community from a distance, in the voice of an unusual stranger. Agnes DeWitt, of rural Wisconsin, would have spent her quiet life teaching in the convent were it not for her love of Chopin. So passionate is her playing that the other nuns wake in a troubling sweat. When the Mother Superior removes the piano stool, Agnes plays on her knees. Asked to stop, she takes off her habit and wanders back into the world.

60. Louise Erdrich
    Mark Adler LS 540 11/25/96. erdrich, louise. Love Medicine. New York Holt, Rinehart and Winston, 1984. Reference found in You mentioned her name in class.  
    http://www.clarion.edu/edu-humn/libsci/buchanancoursesyl/erdrich.htm
    
    Extractions: You mentioned her name in class Louise Erdrich was born to a German father and a Chippewa mother and grew up in close proximity to the Turtle Mountain Chippewa Reservation in North Dakota. During the course of her youth she had much contact with her Native American family membe3rs who lived on the reservation and the reservation itself served as a locus for the setting of Love Medicine . Erdrich attended Dartmouth College and has written voluminously on topics concerned with Native American culture, some of which writings have been published in a variety of journals. The layout of Love Medicine As mentioned, one of the biggest critical complaints encountered seems to have been the seemingly mixed-up ordering of the stories. Aside from this, though, the majority of the critiques I perused were full of praise for the work. They were quick to point out the reality of the depictions of Native American life on reservations. They also approvingly noted the depth of the characters created. This book provides a starting point for understanding some aspects of Native American (here Chippewa) culture. The reader is shown some of the disparity which exists between the whites and the Chippewa's, specifically in the stories which deal with the infringement of Catholic brutality on Native American children and the stories which deal with a Native American criminal/murderer who eventually escapes to Canada (or so we are led to believe). The reader is left with an insight into the power, strength and pride of the Chippewa when, at the very end, the young man receives a heart murmur as a "gift" (in order to help him avoid the draft) from his fugitive father he is helping escape. This suggests that the Native American heart belongs only to themselves, not the whites. Nothing can destroy that.
