Discontinuous Narrative, Ojibwe Sovereignty, and the Wiindigoo Logic of Settler Colonialism
Discontinuous Narrative, Ojibwe Sovereignty, and the Wiindigoo Logic of Settler ColonialismLouise Erdrich's Marn Wolde Deborah L. Madsen (bio) When we are young, the words are scattered around us. As they are assembled by experience, so also are we, sentence by sentence, until the story takes shape. —Louise Erdrich, The Plague of Doves The dominant consensus among interpretations of Louise Erdrich's novel The Plague of Doves (2008) represents Mar…
Contemporary Chicana Literature
Motherhood, maternity, and intergenerational relations have formed a popular vector for critics of ethnic women’s writing for some time now, as Cristina Herrera acknowledges in the introduction to her study. Such an approach facilitates interpretations of such issues as ethnic feminine identity formation, prescriptive patriarchal stereotypes, and the family as a productive matrix of ethnic sociocultural roles. Contemporary Chicana Literature: (Re…

Postcolonial asylum
The Making of (Native) Americans
Louise Erdrich's novel The Painted Drum (2005) introduces a minor character who bears a scar across her lips, the mark of her punishment for speaking her tribal language whilst a student at an Indian boarding school. The wounding and suturing of the Native body offers a figuration of Spivak's subaltern but, more importantly, suggests the ways in which the Native other is constituted as the concept-metaphor of the 'Indian' through foundational tex…
Out of the Melting Pot, into the Nationalist Fires
Out of the Melting Pot, into the Nationalist Fires:Native American Literary Studies in Europe Deborah Madsen (bio) It is difficult to overestimate the differences between Native American studies in Europe and the United States. In Europe there are no dedicated university programs in Native American studies; instead, disciplinary units such as American studies or departments such as English, history, development studies, and anthropology house tea…
Queering cultural China
This essay considers the ethnocentric and heteronormative instrumentality of national, ethnic, and sexual identities as functions of particular representational regimes. The focus of discussion is the material practice of transnational beauty pageantry and fictional representations of the disciplined feminine body as an icon of national and community identity. The essay argues that the diasporic beauty pageant works as an instantiating performanc…
A Companion to Australian Literature since 1900
A fresh, twenty-first-century look at Australian literature in a broad, inclusive, and multicultural sense.
Native Authenticity
Diasporic Histories
Chinese migrant communities have reinvented their histories in many contexts, but the process of globalization has accelerated and diversified this phenomenon. Their fluid identities, innovative modernities, and generative talents in overcoming prejudice and multiple dislocations offer powerful examples of creative resistance to placebound traditions and nationalist histories. As the velocity of exchange in global media and commerce steadily incr…
Diasporic Histories
This book engages with cultural representations of the multifarious subjectivities of Chinese migrant communities, including analyses of aesthetic texts, as well as theoretical approaches in cultural studies
Discourses of Frontier Violence and the Trauma of National Emergence in Larry McMurtry's Lonesome Dove Quartet
This essay offers a revision of frontier mythologizing by engaging issues of gender, race, and nation from the perspective of trauma theory. Crucial questions about the relationship between dominant frontier values, on the one hand, and violence against women and non-Anglo groups (particularly Mexicans and Native Americans), on the other, are explored in a close reading of Larry McMurtry's Lonesome Dove quartet. The analysis focuses upon the “sym…
A Companion to Australian Literature since 1900
A fresh, twenty-first-century look at Australian literature in a broad, inclusive, and multicultural sense. Australian literature is one of the world's richest, dealing not only with "local" Australian themes and issues but with those at the forefront of global literary discussion.

Chinese American Writers of the Real and the Fake
The Chinese Exclusion Acts of the late nineteenth century placed severe limitations on the development of Chinese ethnic communities in the United States. The polarization of categories of Chinese Americans gave rise to two distinct traditions of Chinese writing in and about America: a ‘‘high,’’ cultural tradition and a ‘‘low,’’ working-class tradition. The infamous conflict between Frank Chin and Maxine Hong Kingston, whom he accused of being ‘‘…
No Place Like Home
Home is an incommensurable place, a place of absolute safety and security, that cannot be replicated. For immigrants, refugees, and seekers of asylum, the difficulties of locating such a space, a place like home, are insurmountable. For the deterritorialized or deracinated subject, there can be no place like ‘home.' In this essay, I rehearse some of the conceptual scenarios offered by Jacques Derrida as he considers what is at stake in the debate…

American Exceptionalism
Exceptionalism, the notion that Americans have a distinct and special destiny different from that of other nations, permeates every period of American history. It is the single most powerful force in forming the American identity. In American Exceptionalism Madsen traces this powerful theory from its origins in Puritan and Revolutionary-era writing to its latest manifestations in the Vietnam conflict and in current films and fiction. The growth o…

Visions of America since 1492
The common theme of these essays is the evolution of American cultural identities from a diverse colonial inheritance. Changing representations of what it means to be “American” are assumed to be the consequence of shifting cross-cultural or transatlantic pressures. Since 1492 the experience of America has continually been interpreted both for and by Europeans; the colonial past constituting the prime source of introspective energies and self-con…
