  • Native American Literature
    ENGL 5220 Nicolas Witschi CRN 15378 Sprau 722 / 387-2604 Thursday 4:00 – 6:20 office hours: Wednesday 12:00 – 2:00 Brown 3002 . and by appointment e-mail: [email protected] Native American Literature Over the course of the last four decades or so, literature by indigenous writers has undergone a series of dramatic and always interesting changes. From assertions of sovereign identity and engagements with entrenched cultural stereotypes to interventions in academic and critical methodologies, the word-based art of novelists, dramatists, critics, and poets such as Sherman Alexie, Louise Erdrich, Louis Owens, N. Scott Momaday, Leslie Marmon Silko, Simon Ortiz, and Thomas King, among many others, has proven vital to our understanding of North American culture as a whole. In this course we will examine a cross-section of recent and exemplary texts from this wide-reaching literary movement, paying particular attention to the formal, thematic, and critical innovations being offered in response to questions of both personal and collective identity. This course will be conducted seminar-style, which means that everyone is expected to contribute significantly to discussion and analysis. TEXTS: The following texts are available at the WMU Bookstore: The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian, by Sherman Alexie (Spokane) The Last Report on the Miracles at Little No Horse, by Louise Erdrich (Anishinaabe) Bloodlines: Odyssey of a Native Daughter, by Janet Campbell Hale (Coeur d'Alene) The Light People, by Gordon D. Henry (Anishinaabe) Green Grass, Running Water, by Thomas King (Cherokee) House Made of Dawn, by N. Scott Momaday (Kiowa) from Sand Creek, by Simon Ortiz (Acoma) Nothing But The Truth, eds.

  • A Journal of Theory and Practice Summer 2013 (6:2) 39
    Teaching American Literature: A Journal of Theory and Practice Summer 2013 (6:2) Big Vibrators, Bums, and Big Explosions: Danger and Reward in Teaching Sherman Alexie RosaMaria Chacon, California State University Northridge Abstract The short stories, novels, and poetry of Native American author Sherman Alexie provide his readers with a host of controversial topics. Unafraid to tackle race or religion, Alexie also pushes sexual boundaries and the social conventions surrounding them. Nothing is sacred. He does not refrain from offering the spectacle of the homeless or alcoholic Indian, thus drawing sharp criticism from Native American scholars. And yet, this author provides the college teacher with the necessary resources in Ten Little Indians to bring his stories into the classroom: humor, satire, and clever narrative strategies. In doing so, he provides rich material to facilitate the development of critical thinking in literature classrooms. Functioning almost as an intermediary for the college teacher who dares to assign him, Alexie weaves resources for defusing potential strife and discord in the classroom directly into his literature. When students are dissatisfied with a particular college professor, the teacher can lose a promotion or even be denied tenure, and fired. These dangers are not reserved for the truly incompetent. Almost all teachers can come under fire through student complaints or evaluations. "Even the most conscientious teacher" according to Rose Weitz, "risks lawsuits (if students claim discrimination), poor student evaluations (if students find a topic or approach threatening), or even dismissal (if administrators believe a teacher has behaved improperly or has simply cost the institution too much political capital)" (227).

  • American Book Awards 2004
    BEFORE COLUMBUS FOUNDATION PRESENTS THE AMERICAN BOOK AWARDS 2004 America was intended to be a place where freedom from discrimination was the means by which equality was achieved. Today, American culture THE is the most diverse ever on the face of this earth. Recognizing literary excel- lence demands a panoramic perspective. A narrow view strictly to the mainstream ignores all the tributaries that feed it. American literature is AMERICAN not one tradition but all traditions. From those who have been here for thousands of years to the most recent immigrants, we are all contributing to American culture. We are all being translated into a new language. BOOK Everyone should know by now that Columbus did not “discover” America. Rather, we are all still discovering America—and we must continue to do AWARDS so. The Before Columbus Foundation was founded in 1976 as a nonprofit educational and service organization dedicated to the promotion and dissemination of contemporary American multicultural literature. The goals of BCF are to provide recognition and a wider audience for the wealth of cultural and ethnic diversity that constitutes American writing. BCF has always employed the term “multicultural” not as a description of an aspect of American literature, but as a definition of all American litera- ture. BCF believes that the ingredients of America’s so-called “melting pot” are not only distinct, but integral to the unique constitution of American Culture—the whole comprises the parts. In 1978, the Board of Directors of BCF (authors, editors, and publishers representing the multicultural diversity of American Literature) decided that one of its programs should be a book award that would, for the first time, respect and honor excellence in American literature without restric- tion or bias with regard to race, sex, creed, cultural origin, size of press or ad budget, or even genre.

Creative Commons License Overview of American Studies in Portugal 1 Overview of American Studies in Portugal 1 The practice of American Studies in Portugal evolved out of a philological tradition that might be seen in all of the courses taught at the five public Universities (Lisbon – Classic and New, Oporto, Coimbra, and Aveiro) and at the semi-private Catholic University until the Revolution of 1974. The following decade opened up new opportunities for the expansion of the field with the establishment of a few other public universities around the country (Évora, Minho, Algarve, Beira Interior, Trás-os-Montes e Alto Douro, Open University, Madeira and Azores) as well as several private institutions. 2 In undergraduate teaching, language and literature have been traditionally privileged areas, but linguistics and culture have gained ground within the curricula in the classic universities since the late 1970s. As a response to the present crisis in the Humanities, an effort is being made to appeal to a wider range of candidates. Changes are being implemented in the curricula and new courses are being offered.

  • Ethos at the Periphery: Speakerly and Writerly Persuasions in U.S. Minority Literatures Since 1945
    Ethos at the Periphery: Speakerly and Writerly Persuasions in U.S. Minority Literatures Since 1945 By Daniel Valella A dissertation suBmitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in English and the Designated Emphasis in Women, Gender, and Sexuality in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Scott Saul, Chair Professor Bryan Wagner Professor Mel Y. Chen Spring 2019 1 ABstract Ethos at the Periphery: Speakerly and Writerly Persuasions in U.S. Minority Literatures Since 1945 by Daniel Valella Doctor of Philosophy in English with a Designated Emphasis in Women, Gender, and Sexuality University of California, Berkeley Professor Scott Saul, Chair This dissertation examines the complex models of rhetorical ethos that minority writers and their literary speakers have developed to persuade diverse audiences to join them in resisting structural oppressions and creating more reciprocal forms of affiliation in the post-1945 United States. While authoritarian politicians, from Adolf Hitler to Donald Trump, have aimed to consolidate mass audiences through the power of scapegoating and the deployment of “alternative facts,” writers such as Ralph Ellison, James Baldwin, Gordon Henry, Gloria Anzaldúa, and Sherman Alexie have worked to cultivate a different, more flexiBle and horizontal relationship Between writer and reader, or speaker and listener, through distinctive techniques in their fiction. These writers (along with their narrators, poetic speakers, and dramatis personae) forge connections with audiences through verbal expressions that illuminate shared rituals, iconographies, spiritual beliefs, locations, and ethical values—expressions, I argue, that represent neither a return to reason and rationality nor an accentuation of affect and sentimentality.

  • English: Requirements
    ENGLISH: REQUIREMENTS Humanities Division The Department of English teaches students to read with active understanding and wide appreciation, to write with clarity and grace, and to explore themselves and the world through the intensive study of literature. New Students ENGL 103 and 104 are designed for students beginning the serious study of literature at the college level, and as such are especially appropriate for first-year students. Either ENGL 103 or ENGL 104, or junior standing, is a prerequisite for further study in English at Kenyon. Students may register for a maximum of 1 unit of 100-level courses in English, and students may not go back to take a 100-level course after taking a 200-level course. ENGL 210-289 Students who have taken ENGL 103 or ENGL 104 should advance to one of the courses numbered 210-289. These courses have been designed for and are limited to sophomores and first-year students. Like the department's 100-level courses, these classes are small in size, so that classroom interaction can be discussion-centered and so that instructors can devote more time to helping students with their writing. These courses provide an introduction to fundamental terms, techniques, and methods for the advanced study of literature. Students may expect to learn some of the following: how to do a close reading of a literary text, how to conduct research in literary study (including an introduction to library and information resources, and basic reference tools), some of the basic principles of different approaches to literary criticism, important terms used in literary analysis (including prosody in poetry courses), and the proper documentation of sources.

  • Storied Space in Louise Erdrich's the Round House
    ROCZNIKI HUMANISTYCZNE Tom LXVIII, zeszyt 11 – 2020 DOI: https://doi.org/10.18290/rh206811-9 SILVIA MARTÍNEZ-FALQUINA# GRIEVING PLACES, SOVEREIGN PLACES: STORIED SPACE IN LOUISE ERDRICH’S THE ROUND HOUSE* A b s t r a c t. This essay makes a contribution to the current conversation on Native American resurgence in the context of settler colonial dispossession and displacement. It responds to the pressing need to overcome simplistic representations of Native Americans and place by acknowledging the essential relationality of identity, articulated as being-with-the-land and grounded normativity. It does so by providing an analysis of Anishinaabe writer Louise Erdrich’s The Round House (2012) focused on relevant symbolism, characterization and themes around the re-storying of Native selves and lands that articulate the novel as a decolonial palimpsest made of different but intricately interwoven layers. The essay leads to the conclusion that Erdrich’s novel is an act of re-mapping in words that restores agency to Indigenous peoples, re-enfranchises American Indian grief, acknowledges the complex, intricate relation to settler colonial ways, and reformulates sovereignty on its own terms. Keywords: Native American fiction; resurgence; palimpsest; land-as-identity; land-as-relationship. 1. NATIVE AMERICANS, SETTLER COLONIALISM AND THE LAND As Gordon Henry claims in “Anishinaabeskinuk: Writing Over Skins, Writing Over Imagi (natives),” [s]ince the arrival of Europeans and other others on North American shores, the lands, people, languages, stories and songs of Native North Americans tribes have been written SILVIA MARTÍNEZ-FALQUINA is Associate Professor of US Literature at the University of Zaragoza; address for correspondence: Departamento de Filología Inglesa y Alemana, Universidad de Zaragoza, Facultad de Filosofía y Letras, Calle San Juan Bosco, 7, 50009 Zaragoza, Spain; e-mail: [email protected]; ORCID: https://orcid.org/0000-0002-8054-095X.
