Section Info:
This course introduces students to study of American Indian literature by focusing on texts by contemporary American Indian novelists, poets, and playwrights. Over the course of the semester, students will consider how indigenous aesthetics shape narrative in addition to examining how American Indian authors engage the legacies of colonization and the histories of their tribal communities through their stories. By reading American Indian literatures as creative works that offer insights into decolonial imaginations, students will consider what role literature plays in indigenous resurgence and survivance as well as engage broader questions about the importance of national literatures and intellectual sovereignty for American Indian nations.
