For centuries, historians have narrated the arrival of Europeans
using terminology (discovery, invasion, conquest, and colonization)
that emphasizes their agency and disempowers that of Native
Americans. This book explores firsting, a discourse that privileges
European and settler-colonial presence, movements, knowledges, and
experiences as a technology of colonization in the early modern
Atlantic world, 1492-1900. It exposes how textual culture has
ensured that Euro-settlers dominate Native Americans, while
detailing misrepresentations of Indigenous peoples as unmodern and
proposing how the western world can be un-firsted in scholarship on
this time and place.
