This Long Looked For Event: Retrieving Early Contact History from Penobscot Oral Traditions
“This Long Looked For Event”:Retrieving Early Contact History from Penobscot Oral Traditions Annette Kolodny (bio) WHEN JOSEPH NICOLAR TOOK UP THE TASK of telling the story of his people from the first moments of the creation of the world by the Great Spirit through the several arrivals and eventual permanent settlement of the white man in “the red man’s world,” he made clear at the outset that his was no act of colonial mimicry (2007, 95). First…
The Coming of the White Man”: Native American First Contact Stories in the Literature Classroom
“The Coming of the White Man”Native American First Contact Stories in the Literature Classroom Annette Kolodny (bio) 1 Over the past dozen years, I have been studying extant Native American stories of first contacts with Europeans. For the most part my focus was the Eastern Algonquian-speaking peoples of the Canadian Maritime Provinces and northern New England.1 Even within this relatively restricted geographical area, and within related ethnic a…

Tropic Trappings in Mel Gibson's Apocalypto and Joseph Nicolar's The Life and Traditions of the Red Man
With its roots in ancient rhetoric and medieval liturgy, the term trope now refers to a figure of speech that organizes a set of complex ideas into a kind of linguistic shorthand. A trope is thus a phrase or image that conveys more than its literal meaning. Those of us trained in the Western literary canon have learned to recognize a myriad of repeated tropes that underpin the major stories in that canon. For the purposes of the analysis to follo…

The First Woman in the Republic: A Cultural Biography of Lydia Maria Child
Rethinking Frontier Literary History as the Stories of First Cultural Contact
My original interest in frontier studies derived from an intuitive conviction that Euro-Americans' initial response to landscapes that were for them both unknown and unexplored somehow predicted the ensuing centuries of waste and despoliation of what one eighteenth-century colonist called a Paradise with all her Virgin Beauties. As a result, my first book, The Lay of the Land: Metaphor as Experience and History in American Life and Letters' exami…

Dancing through the Minefield: Some Observations on the Theory, Practice and Politics of a Feminist Literary Criticism
Had anyone the prescience, ten years ago, to pose the question of defining literary criticism, she might have been told, in the wake of Mary Ellmann's Thinking About Women,' that it involved exposing the sexual stereotyping of women in both our literature and our literary criticism and, as well, demonstrating the inadequacy of established critical schools and methods to deal fairly or sensitively with works written by women. In broad outline, suc…

They even found a teacher in their school who, searching for his own honesty, encouraged theirs. So pleased were they with their written efforts that they decided to share them; so they found a friendly publisher and put together a book. End of fairy tale. The friendly publisher and his blue-pen…

Reply to Commentaries: Women Writers, Literary Historians, and Martian Readers
B ECAUSE OF its ongoing interest in a revisionist correction of traditional canons that either altogether omit women writers or relegate them to only minor status, feminist criticism, as practiced in the American academy, has inevitably engaged questions of literary history.1 Thus Jerome Beaty quite properly places my A Map for Rereading: Or, Gender and the Interpretation of Literary Texts within the context of that abiding feminist concern (alth…
