The political arrays of American Indian literary history / James H. Cox.

Summary:

"The Political Arrays of American Indian Literary History examines canonical writers of Native American literature and nonfiction (Riggs, Rogers, Alexie, Thomas King, Silko, Erdrich, and Momaday), hoping to work against what the author considers a "flattening" of the politics of American Indian literary expression by taking into account the historical and political contexts to which American Indian authors respond, the political positions they take in their writing, and the political perspectives that implicitly or explicitly shape scholarship on their work"-- Provided by publisher.
