Royal octavo (9 1/4 x 6 1/4") bound in original publisher's grey cloth with silver lettering to spine and cover. First edition. Cultural Persistence: Continuity in Meaning and Moral Responsibility among the Bearlak…e Athapaskans (1991), by Scott Rushforth and James S. Chisholm, is an ethnography examining how the Sahtúot'ine (Bearlake) of Canada's Northwest Territories sustain a coherent moral framework centered on industriousness, autonomy, generosity, and emotional restraint. The book emphasizes that the Bearlake people rely on "control" and emotional restraint as central pillars of moral responsibility. The authors argue that cultural traits and worldviews are actively perpetuated across generations, allowing the Bearlake to maintain their identity by prioritizing primary, experiential knowledge (such as knowledge acquired through dreams) over unverified hearsay. Condition: A near fine copy.
