Opis

Rather than seeing American literature as beginning with the writings of English or Spanish colonists, this title points to the wide variety of indigenous writing in the Americas prior to colonization. It proposes a literature of the Americas that includes both indigenous and alphabetic literatures and looks comparatively at the interactions.
