Together, they established an ethnically mixed "kreol" community. Against the backdrop of the fur trade, the missionary work of the Russian Orthodox Church, and competition among Pacific colonial powers, Gwenn A. Miller brings to light the social, political, and economic patterns of life in the settlement, making clear that Russia's modest colonial effort off the Alaskan coast fully depended on the assistance of Alutiiq people.In this context, Miller argues, the relationships that developed between Alutiiq women and Russian men were critical keys to the initial success of Russia's North Pacific venture. Although Russia's Alaskan enterprise began some two centuries after other European powers-Spain, England, Holland, and France-started to colonize North America, many aspects of the contacts between Russians and Alutiiq people mirror earlier colonial episodes: adaptation to alien environments, the "discovery" and exploitation of natural resources, complicated relations between indigenous peoples and colonizing Europeans, attempts by an imperial state to moderate those relations, and a web of Christianizing practices. Russia's Pacific colony, however, was founded on the cusp of modernity at the intersection of earlier New World forms of colonization and the bureaucratic age of high empire. Miller's attention to the coexisting intimacy and violence of human connections on Kodiak offers new insights into the nature of colonialism in a little-known American outpost of European imperial power. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 648 7 To 1867|2fast 650 0 Russians|zAlaska|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85116026|zKodiak Island|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85072779-781|xHistory.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh99005024 650 0 Pacific Gulf Yupik Eskimos|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities /subjects/sh93002783|zAlaska|zKodiak Island|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85072779-781|xHistory. |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99005024 650 0 Acculturation|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85000442|zAlaska|zKodiak Island|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh85072779-781|xHistory.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99005024 650 7 Russians.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1102429 650 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/958235 650 7 Pacific Gulf Yupik Eskimos.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org /fast/1049948 650 7 Acculturation.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/795535 650 7 HISTORY|zUnited States|xState & Local|xGeneral.|2bisacsh 650 7 HISTORY|zUnited States|y19th Century.|2bisacsh 651 0 Kodiak Island (Alaska)|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85072779|xHistory.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh99005024 651 0 Alaska|xHistory|yTo 1867.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85003151 651 7 Alaska|zKodiak Island.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast /1245379 651 7 Alaska.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1204480 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411628 776 08 |iPrint version:|z1501700693|z9781501700699 |w(OCoLC)908990320 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=1049468|zOnline ebook via EBSCO.
