Beschreibung

Taking up Lisa Brooks&rsquo;s notion of &ldquo;spinning the binary&rdquo; between oral and literary forms and Christopher Teuton&rsquo;s explication of the graphic mode, this book examines the uses<BR /> that a range of Anishinaabe authors make of art and artists. Arguing that the mark on a surface&mdash;whether it be an ancient pictograph or a contemporary painting&mdash;intervenes, in the works under scrutiny, in such artificial divisions as precolonial/oral and postcontact/alphabetically literate societies, the text examines the ways Anishinaabe authors establish frameworks for continuity, resistance, and sovereignty in that &ldquo;space&rdquo; where conventional narratives of settlement read rupture. This book is a significant contribution to studies of the ways traditional forms of inscription support and amplify the oral tradition and in turn how both the method and aesthetic of inscription contribute to&#160; contemporary literary aesthetics and the politics of representation.
