McNally will be on hand to discuss his new book "Honoring Elders: Aging
and Authority in Ojibwe Religion." Using archival and ethnographic
research McNally follows the making of Ojibwe eldership, showing that deference
to older women and men is part of a fuller moral, aesthetic and cosmological vision
connected to the ongoing circle of life. He will also be presenting "Art
of Tradition: Sacred Music, Dance and Myth of Michigan" by Gertrude Kurath
and Jane Ettawageshik, edited by McNally.
