Huron-Wendat

The Heritage of the Circle

By: Georges E. Sioui

In this book, Georges Sioui, who is himself Wendat, redeems the original name of his people and tells their centuries-old history by describing their social ideas and philosophy and the relevance of both to contemporary life. The question he poses is a simple one: after centuries of European and then other North American contact and interpretation, isn't it now time to return to the original sources, that is to the ideas and practices of indigenous peoples like the Wendats, as told and interpreted by indigenous people like himself?

For an Amerindian Autohistory

An Essay on the Foundations of a Social Ethic

By: Georges E. Sioui

A Huron born and raised near Quebec City, Georges Sioui is the first to present guidelines for the study of Native history from an Amerindian point of view. He argues that these guidelines must be respected if the self-image and social ethics of Native people are to be understood and preserved and shows that they provide a way to greatly improve the way Native people and more recent immigrants to the Americas perceive each other.

Huron-Wendat

The Heritage of the Circle

By: Georges E. Sioui

Wendake was the name that the five confederated Wendat nations gave to Huronia, the Ontario territory described by the French in the 1600s. Samuel de Champlain was the first to use the disparaging term Huron in nanring the Wendats, which until recently was the most common way of referring to them. In this book, Georges Sioui, himself Wendat, redeems the original name of his people and tells their history, providing readers with a fascinating look at Wendat society and its rich legacy for Canada and the modern world.
