- Media Portrayal and Anthropologist Treatment of Ishi
|
|
United States |
- by Chris Watson, c. 2000
"In 1911, an aboriginal "wild man" walked into the twentieth century white world. I will describe
how the media of those days portrayed the last wild Native American, Ishi, and I will propose some
possible reasons why he was portrayed that way. Anthropology was a relatively new subject then, and
Alfred Kroeber was a rising star in California. He was the sponsor of Ishi. I will describe some possible
motivations of Kroeber before and after his time with Ishi, based on what I have been able to find out
about mankind in general and Alfred Kroeber in particular." |
