Their writings, produced in an era characterized by severe cultural oppression, are not only milestones in the evolution of early Native American literature but also comprise a significant contribution to American letters. The literary bequest of the authors covered in this book openly contests the perennial stereotype of the «Vanishing Indian.» KW - USA, Literatur, Indianer, Geschichte 1850-1920, Native American Literature, Native American History, Native American LA - English ER -
