"Native American Writing Systems and (Counter)Discourses of Identity"
2004 American Studies Association Conference Atlanta, Georgia, November
11 - 14, 2004
This proposed session will consider the role of Native American writing
systems and recordkeeping before contact and in post-contact
literatures. Especially welcomed are papers that consider how
indigenous literacies are informed by different worldviews than
Eurowestern literacies, how Native writing is conceived of as a
socially-constituted act, and how early tribal writers invoke and deploy
these methods of record as unique rhetorical strategies. Please send an
abstract and one-page vita to pmkgsl@rit.edu by January 17.
