- W1900487731 abstract "Bill Wortman has been kind enough to invite me to address you today because I have edited an anthology of contemporary Native American plays for Theatre Communications Group. Seventh Generation: An Anthology of Native American Plays is literally coming out as we meet. It offers in a single volume seven Native plays selected from a great number more. Each of the seven is an individually exceptional work of theater. Each was well received in an original production venue and traveled beyond that initial circle to become known to a wider audience of play-goers, and then to a publisher. It seems significant during this Celebration of Native Women Playwrights to mention that four of the seven plays selected by myself and by the editors of TCG for inclusion are plays written by women. And we are privileged at this conference to have these very playwrights among us: in alphabetical order, Diane Glancy, LeAnne Howe, Victoria Nalani Kneubal, and the Spiderwoman Theatre—Lisa Mayo, Gloria Miguel and Muriel Miguel.

My interest in Native performance was kindled in the early 1970s by my dissertation advisor. Charles Gattnig was fascinated by that part of my Italian research which concerned tapetti di segatura. Tapetti di segatura are sawdust paintings created on the marble floors of churches in Sorrento and Amalfi, Italy in preparation for Holy Thursday of Easter Holy Week. Professor Gattnig's fascination with sawdust paintings was in great part the result of the parallel he perceived between them and the sand paintings created by Navajo Medicine Men in preparation for Chantways. In both rituals a meticulously drawn image is destroyed immediately upon use and a significant sense of healing is imparted. A year after the dissertation was completed, we returned to that parallel and published an article entitled, The Route of Evanescence: Sand and Sawdust in Rituals of Transformation. In the" @default.
