Focusing on the evolution of autonomy in Native American literature, this book traces the journey from the late eighteenth to the early twenty-first century. It highlights how authors like Samson Occom and Louise Erdrich have reclaimed self-rule rooted in the natural world, juxtaposed against Euro-American literary traditions. The narrative showcases a progression from early struggles against genocide and cultural loss to a flourishing of Indigenous expressions of autonomy, blending human and natural orders into a new vision of community and self-governance.
