TY - JOUR ID - 1836037 AU - Kačer, Tomáš PY - 2021 TI - The ‘stage Indian’ in early American theatre culture JF - Ostrava Journal of English Philology VL - 13 IS - 2 SP - 5-15 EP - 5-15 PB - Ostravská univerzita, Filozofická fakulta SN - 18038174 KW - Early American drama KW - stage conventions KW - noble savage KW - Native American performance UR - https://dokumenty.osu.cz/ff/journals/ostravajournal/13-2/OJEP_21_2_Kacer.pdf N2 - The article deals with the early development of the ‘stage Indian’ as a character in early American drama and theatre. It studies ‘stage Indian’ characters, which reflect historical theatrical conventions rather than being historically accurate representations. It explores early plays depicting Native Americans as the ‘exotic other’. It considers plays involving the myth of the noble savage on the one hand and some parodying of this myth on the other. Finally, it describes various performances involving Native American performers in the United States in the 1890s. These examples show the diversity of the ‘stage Indian’ as a literary and performative construct. ER -
