The Symbolics of Presidentialism
Unconventional Politics
In Unconventional Politics, Dean studies works by both Native and non-Native writers who tackled “the Indian Question.” She depicts these women as “writer-activists,” documenting how they combined political strategies like delegations, petitions, letter writing and lobbying with conventional literature like poems, novels, magazine fiction and personal narrative to fight against policies that oppressed Indigenous peoples in the United States.

But generally, academic depictions of the democratization effected by U.S. citizens have been more equivocal. Taken as a whole, their line of treatment could well be summarized by modifying Wynn Caitlyns aphorism about diplomacy: Democracy the art of saying nice doggie' until you can find a rock. This is not to say that contributions of individ…

Guest Introduction
Materializing Democracy
For the most part, democracy is simply presumed to exist in the United States. It is viewed as a completed project rather than as a goal to be achieved. Fifteen leading scholars challenge that stasis in Materializing Democracy . They aim to reinvigorate the idea of democracy by placing it in the midst of a contentious political and cultural fray, which, the volume's editors argue, is exactly where it belongs. Drawing on literary criticism, cultur…

Early writers were drawn to fantasies of an American and an literature came to be defined not only by its desire for cultural uniqueness but also by …

His most famous work, “Sermon on the Execution of Moses Paul,” has been paid sporadic attention by scholars of American and American Indian literature. Two Dartmouth biographers have made use of his diaries, though lamenting the sparsity of Occom's ent…
