เกี่ยวกับผู้แต่ง
Charles Alexander Eastman (February 19, 1858 – January 8, 1939) was a Santee Dakota physician, writer, national lecturer, and reformer. He was of Native American and Anglo-American ancestry. Eastman was the first author to address America’s Native American viewpoint through his writings in English, and he is considered one of the early Native American authors to do so. His work is notable for interpreting his culture for a wide audience, which he did with eloquence, education, and compassion.
Born on a reservation in Minnesota, Eastman’s initial education was the traditional ways of the Santee Sioux. He later attended Dartmouth College and subsequently Boston University, where he became a certified physician. Eastman’s writings reflect his cross-cultural experience and his transition from the traditional world of the Santee Sioux to modern American society. His literary style is distinctly shaped by his unique perspective, where he blends Native American storytelling traditions with Western literary forms.
Eastman’s most significant contribution to literature and cultural history is his role in describing Native American culture and philosophy to a broad readership. His books, including the ‘CHARLES EASTMAN Premium Collection, ‘ represent an invaluable record of a life bridged between indigenous and white American worlds. Through his work, Eastman’s goal was not only to ensure that the customs and beliefs of his people were respected but also to impart a message of universal humanity.
