Eigenbrod argues that politically correct silence is not the answer but instead does a disservice to the literature that, like all literature, depends on being read, taught, and disseminated in various ways. In Travelling Knowledges, Eigenbrod suggests decolonizing strategies when approaching Aboriginal texts as an outsider and challenges conventional notions of expertise. She concludes that literatures of colonized peoples have to be read ethically, not only without colonial impositions of labels but also with the responsibility to read beyond the text or, in Lee Maracle's words, to become the architect of great social transformation. Features the works of: Jeannette Armstrong (Okanagan), Louise Halfe (Cree), Margo Kane (Saulteaux\/Cree), Maurice Kenny (Mohawk), Thomas King (Cherokee, living in Canada), Emma LaRocque (Cree\/Metis), Lee Maracle (Sto: lo\/Metis), Ruby Slipperjack (Anishnaabe), Lorne Simon (Mi kmaq), Richard Wagamese (Anishnaabe), and Emma Lee Warrior (Peigan).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Renate Eigenbrod\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Manitoba Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/25\/2005\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 274\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.73lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.02h x 6.26w x 0.85d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780887556814\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eReference and Research Bk News\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/01\/2006 pg. 308\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eEigenbrod, Renate:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - Renate Eigenbrod teaches Aboriginal Literature in the Department of Native Studies at the University of Manitoba and is co-editor of Creating Community: A Roundtable on Canadian Aboriginal Literatures.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"University of Manitoba Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":40242154700915,"sku":"9.78E+12","price":27.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/products\/img_51865def-5cc1-47b8-82f3-27ac7dc27d87.jpg?v=1657201625","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/en-de\/products\/travelling-knowledges-positioning-the-immigrant-reader-of-aboriginal-literatures-in-canada-9780887556814","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
