Pauline Johnson (1861-1913) was not only an accomplished thinker and writer but a contentious and passionate personality who 'talked back' to Euro-Canadian culture. "Paddling Her Own Canoe" is the only major scholarly study that examines Johnson's diverse roles as a First Nations champion, New Woman, serious writer and performer, and Canadian nationalist.A Native advocate of part-Mohawk ancestry, Johnson was also an independent, self-supporting, unmarried woman during the period of first-wave feminism. Her versatile writings range from extraordinarily erotic poetry to polemical statements about the rights of First Nations. Based on thorough research into archival and published sources, this volume probes the meaning of Johnson's energetic career and addresses the complexities of her social, racial, and cultural position. While situating Johnson in the context of turn-of-the-century Canada, the authors also use current feminist and post-colonial perspectives to reframe her contribution. Included is the first full chronology ever compiled of Johnson's writing.Pauline Johnson was an extraordinary woman who crossed the racial and gendered lines of her time, and thereby confounded Canadian society. This study reclaims both her writings and her larger significance.Winner of the Raymond Klibansky Prize, awarded by the Canadian Federation for the Humanities and Social Sciences 410 0$aStudies in gender and history. 606 $aWomen and literature$zCanada$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aAuthors, Canadian$y19th century$vBiography 606 $aIndian authors$zCanada$vBiography 606 $aIndian women$zCanada$vBiography 606 $aMohawk Indians$vBiography 606 $aIndians in literature 607 $aCanada$2fast 608 $aLivres numeriques. 608 $aCriticism, interpretation, etc. 608 $ae-books. 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aWomen and literature$xHistory 615 0$aAuthors, Canadian 615 0$aIndian authors 615 0$aIndian women 615 0$aMohawk Indians 615 0$aIndians in literature. 676 $a818.409 700 $aStrong-Boag$b Veronica Jane$0275474 702 $aGerson$b Carole$f1948- 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910780531403321 996 $aPaddling her own canoe$93673148 997 $aUNINA
