WiSe 17/18: Native American Literature
Ulla Haselstein
Kommentar
The lecture will present a historical survey of Native American literature as a medium of collective identity, political protest, individual self-expression and cultural nationalism. Every acount of Native American Literature must take historical events and political developments into account: settler colonialism, savagism, war, missionary work, enforced assimilation, the American Indian Movement, and indigeneity are some key terms which are reflected in literary texts. We will study a broad variety of genres (stories, memories, autobiographies, novels, reports, poems etc.) and discuss concepts such as orality vs writing; myth vs literature; collective vs individual authorship together with concepts that stress interstitiality, transculturality and cultural hybridity.
