Description
Narrative obtained from the Eastern Cree of James Bay, Quebec, are considered in their various functions within the Cree culture. The author provides an inductive approach for this study.
About the author
Richard J. Preston is nominally retired (Professor Emeritus of Anthropology, McMaster University) and hopes to continue his forty-plus-year span of sojourning and work with the people of the James Bay region, focusing on the cultural dimensions of globalization and tracing the emergence of the Cree concept of community. His publications include Cree Narrative: Expressing the Personal Meanings of Events, second edition (2002), and a great many papers.
