This interdisciplinary collection of essays, by both Natives and
non-Natives, explores presentations and representations of
indigenous bodies in historical and contemporary contexts. Recent
decades have seen a wealth of scholarship on the body in a wide
range of disciplines. "Indigenous Bodies" extends this scholarship
in exciting new ways, bringing together the disciplinary expertise
of Native studies scholars from around the world. The book is
particularly concerned with the Native body as a site of persistent
fascination, colonial oppression, and indigenous agency, along with
the endurance of these legacies within Native communities. At the
core of this collection lies a dual commitment to exposing numerous
and diverse disempowerments of indigenous peoples, and to
recognizing the many ways in which these same people retained
and/or reclaimed agency. Issues of reviewing, relocating, and
reclaiming bodies are examined in the chapters, which are paired to
bring to light juxtapositions and connections and further the
transnational development of indigenous studies.
