MANUSCRIPT COLLECTION

Dates:
1780-1956
Abstract:  

Zebulon Montgomery Pike (1779-1813) was an explorer and soldier, most often remembered two exploratory trips to the newly acquired Louisiana territory. The first of these trips was to the source of the Mississippi River in 1805; the second was to explore the headwaters of the Arkansas and Red Rivers in 1806. Because General James Wilkinson was responsible for organizing Pike's two expeditions, when the conspiracy charges again Aaron Burr implicated Wilkinson, suspicion was, for a short time, also focused on Pike. Pike worked his way up the ranks of the United States Army, becoming a brigadier-general during the War of 1812. He was killed in the Battle of York in Upper Canada (now Toronto) in 1813.

MANUSCRIPT COLLECTION

Dates:
1934-1985
Abstract:  

Trained as an anthropologist at Berkeley under A.L. Kroeber and Robert Lowie, Carl Voegelin spent the majority of his career as a structural linguist specializing in Algonquian languages, including Delaware, Potawatomi, Fox, Menominee, and Shawnee, and on the Seneca, Ojibwa (Chippewa), and Blackfoot (Siksika). His most significant contributions came through his studies of Delaware, Shawnee, and Hopi, but he is also credited with reviving the International Journal of American Linguistics after the death of its founder, Franz Boas, and with nurturing the program in anthropology at Indiana University, where he was on faculty from 1941 until his retirement in 1976. The Voegelin collection contains field notes, lexical files, notebooks, papers, correspondence, and other materials relating to Voegelin's work on Native American languages. The bulk of the collection concerns Delaware and Shawnee, but there is significant material for Blackfoot, Menominee, Ojibwa and Potawatomi, Seneca, and Penobscot. Notes on Turkish, kept during the Second World War, are also present. Among other important series in the collection are Voegelin's correspondence and notes concerning two of his major projects: the translation and interpretation of the Walam Olam and his study of Shawnee law. Correspondents include Leonard Bloomfield, Eli Lilly, and Morris Swadesh. A portion of the collection is indexed in Kendall (1982).

MANUSCRIPT COLLECTION

Dates:
1974-1993
Abstract:  

The Jan Bruckner Papers are a small collection of cassette tapes, manuscripts and printed materials produced during her time obtaining a doctorate at Indiana University's Physical Therapy Program. The main focus is applied anthropological research at Tohono O'odham Nation Reservation where she worked as a physical therapy consultant between 1982 and 1992, resulting in an illustrated binder of Tohono O'odham words and phrases to describe work done in physical therapy, as well as other related materials. Bruckner's physical therapy assistant was John Miguel, a native O'odham speaker from Santa Rosa AZ, who recorded O'odham words onto cassette tape. Other cassette tapes contain discussions of the ethics of applied anthropology, Tohono O'odham and Spanish language classes, and journal entries of Bruckner's time at the Indiana University Health Methodist Hospital in 1987.
