Kindred By Choice: Germans and American Indians since 1800
H. Glenn Penny
How do we explain the persistent preoccupation with American Indians in Germany? H. Glenn Penny argues that this preoccupation is rooted in an affinity for American Indians that has permeated German cultures for two centuries. This affinity stems directly from German polycentrism, notions of tribalism, a devotion to resistance, a longing for freedom, and a melancholy sense of shared fate.
