This is a collection of classic and newly commissioned essays about
the study of Indigenous literatures in North America. The
contributing scholars include some of the most venerable Indigenous
theorists, among them Gerald Vizenor (Anishinaabe), Jeannette
Armstrong (Okanagan), Craig Womack (Creek), Kimberley Blaeser
(Anishinaabe), Emma LaRocque (MA (c)tis), Daniel Heath Justice
(Cherokee), Janice Acoose (Saulteaux), and Jo-Ann Episkenew (MA
(c)tis). Also included are settler scholars foundational to the
field, including Helen Hoy, Margery Fee, and Renate Eigenbrod.
Among the newer voices are both settler and Indigenous theorists
such as Sam McKegney, Keavy Martin, and Niigaanwewidam Sinclair.
The volume is organized into five subject areas: Position, the
necessity of considering where you come from and who you are;
Imagining Beyond Images and Myths, a history and critique of
circulating images of Indigenousness; Debating Indigenous Literary
Approaches; Contemporary Concerns, a consideration of relevant
issues; and finally Classroom Considerations, pedagogical concerns
particular to the field. Each section is introduced by an essay
that orients the reader and provides ideological context. While
anthologies of literary criticism have focused on specific issues
related to this burgeoning field, this volume is the first to offer
comprehensive perspectives on the subject.
