Описание: "What I have written, I have written " WHEN HE REACHES MATURITY, even a pagan ruler like Pontius Pilate finds that life has become inescapable. He has done enough and said enough and has molded himself into a pattern that is the mold for the rest of his life. He may be able to shape it, but only in a limited way. Tiberius was the emperor, and Pontius Pilate carried out the instructions of Tiberius. Tiberius certainly had the power of life and death over Pontius Pilate. But there is still a very real sense in which Pilate wasn't willing to give up his dictatorial powers over everyone in his realm. Since he proclaimed Jesus to be the "King of the Jews," so let it be said, so let it be done. Pilate's words could not be changed. To some degree this is true of all of us. We can only marginally change the absolutes of life. God, and God alone, has the last say in all the major and minor details of His providence. Man invariably thinks that he is a free moral agent able to do absolutely as he chooses. But ultimately, he is only as free as God allows.
Photographer Edward Curtis’s 1914 orchestrally scored melodrama In the Land of the Head Hunters was one of the first US films to feature an Indigenous cast. This landmark of early silent cinema was an intercultural product of Curtis’s collaboration with the Kwakwa?ka?’wakw of British Columbia—meant, like Curtis’s photographs, to document a supposedly vanishing race. But as this collection shows, the epic film is not simply an artifact of colonialist nostalgia.
In recognition of the film’s centennial, and the release of a restored version, Return to the Land of the Head Hunters brings together leading anthropologists, Native American authorities, artists, musicians, literary scholars, and film historians to reassess the film and its legacy. The volume offers unique Kwakwa?ka?’wakw perspectives on the film, accounts of its production and subsequent circulation, and evaluations of its depictions of cultural practice. Resituated within film history and informed by a legacy of Kwakwa?ka?’wakw participation and response, the movie offers dynamic evidence of ongoing cultural survival and transformation under shared conditions of modernity.
