Instructor: Anthony Webster
Day/Time: TBA
Location: TBA
Description: This class examines the verbal artistic traditions (jokes, story-telling, song, chant, poetry, etc.) of Native American peoples. Any presentation of Native American verbal art, in Native languages (however we define that term), must engage critically with questions of representation, translation and interpretation. We will be focused primarily on ethnopoetic presentations and interpretations (though not exclusively). This should not be assumed to say that that is the only way to represent verbal art. Thus we will also be interested in the changing nature of the representation of Native American verbal art that coincides with changing technology. We will be interested in what many Native scholars, like Gus Palmer Jr. and Beverly Crum, have to say about contemporary Native American verbal art. We will also be concerned with the ways that Native Americans are sharing their verbal artistic traditions both within their community, across Native communities, and with the dominant society. Finally, we will also be concerned with social, political, and sacred work that Native American verbal artists engage in.*ANT 361L - Maya Studies: Past/Present/Future

Unique: 20890
Instructor: Professor Astrid Runggaldier
Day/Time: MW 1:00 PM – 2:30 PM
Location: DFA 2.506
Description: Are textile arts considered fine arts? Are they part of art museum collections? How are Indigenous textiles from the Americas displayed and described in museums around the world? This course examines the ethical implications of these questions while exploring the textile holdings of the Art and Art History Collection (AAHC) at UT Austin, examining 19th century hand-woven Diné (Navajo) textiles from the US Southwest, ethnographic collections of huipiles and other clothing from the Maya region, and Pre-Columbian cloth from the Andean cultures of South America. Working with objects from UT’s collections, students learn about manufacture from weaving and dyeing technologies, about social and ritual meaning from symbolism and iconography, and about gender, power, and the economic value of hand-crafted cloth in ancient societies. Through course readings on archaeological, anthropological, and iconographic studies of ancient textile traditions, both in the Americas and in comparative global perspective, students develop a critical assessment of the ethical issues concerning exhibitions and collections of Indigenous American textiles. This course is a combination of discussion-based seminar focused on scholarly literature, and hands-on lab centered on Maya textiles in the AAHC. Student can expect to produce weekly written assignments and a semester-long digital humanities project. This course fulfills a requirement in the “Objects, Collections, Preservation” strand for the certificate in the Bridging Disciplines Program in Museum Studies.*ARH 347P – Mesoamerican Writing Systems
