European, Asian, and Polynesian ? in a postcolonial society characterized by neocolonial structures of barely acknowledged inequality. While M?ori writing reverberates with this struggle, literary identity discourse goes beyond any fallacious dualism of white/brown, colonizer/colonized, or modern/traditional. In a rapidly altering context of globality, such essentialism fails to account for the diverse expressions of M?ori identities negotiated across multiple categories of culture, ethnicity, class, and gender. Narrating Indigenous Modernities recognizes the need to place M?ori literature within a broader framework that explores the complex relationship between indigenous culture, globalization, and modernity. This study introduces a transcultural methodology for the analysis of contemporary M?ori fiction, where articulations of indigeneity acknowledge cross-cultural blending and the transgression of cultural boundaries. Thus, Narrating Indigenous Modernities charts the proposition that M?ori writing has acquired a fresh, transcultural quality, giving voice to both new and recuperated forms of indigeneity, tribal community, and M?oritanga (Maoridom) that generate modern indigeneities which defy any essentialist homogenization of cultural difference. M?ori literature becomes, at the same time, both witness to globalized processes of radical modernity and medium for the negotiation and articulation of such structural transformations in M?oritanga. 410 0$aCross/cultures ;$v141. 606 $aMaori literature 606 $aMulticulturalism in literature 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aMaori literature. 615 0$aMulticulturalism in literature. 676 $a860.9/98 700 $aMoura-Koc?og?lu$b Michaela$0977914 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910457772703321 996 $aNarrating indigenous modernities$92227868 997 $aUNINA
