Paratextual Futures. 330 $a"From the marginalia of their readers to the social and cultural means of their production, books bear the imprint of our humanity. Embodying the marks, traces, and scars of colonial survival, Indigenous books are contested spaces. A constellation of nontextual components surrounded Native American-authored publications of the long nineteenth century, shaping how these books were read and understood-including illustrations, typefaces, explanatory prefaces, appendices, copyright statements, author portraits, and more. Centering Indigenous writers, Book Anatomy explores works from John Rollin Ridge, Sarah Winnemucca Hopkins, Pretty Shield, and D'Arcy McNickle published between 1854 and 1936. In examining critical moments of junction between Indigenous books and a mainstream literary marketplace, Amy Gore argues that the reprints, editions, and paratextual elements of Indigenous books matter: they embody a frontline of colonization in which Native authors battle the public perception and reception of Indigenous books, negotiate representations of Indigenous bodies, and fight for authority and ownership over their literary work"--$cProvided by publisher. 606 $aAmerican literature$xIndian authors$xHistory and criticism 606 $aAmerican literature$xIndian authors$xPublishing$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aAmerican literature$xIndian authors$xPublishing$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aIndians of North America$xHistoriography 606 $aParatext$xPolitical aspects$zUnited States$xHistory 606 $aTransmission of texts$zUnited States$xHistory 606 $aAuthors and publishers$zUnited States$xHistory 606 $aBooks and reading$zUnited States$xHistory 606 $aBooks$zUnited States$xHistory 606 $aBook industries and trade$zUnited States$xHistory 615 0$aAmerican literature$xIndian authors$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aAmerican literature$xIndian authors$xPublishing$xHistory 615 0$aAmerican literature$xIndian authors$xPublishing$xHistory 615 0$aIndians of North America$xHistoriography. 615 0$aParatext$xPolitical aspects$xHistory. 615 0$aTransmission of texts$xHistory. 615 0$aAuthors and publishers$xHistory. 615 0$aBooks and reading$xHistory. 615 0$aBooks$xHistory. 615 0$aBook industries and trade$xHistory. 676 $a810.9/897 700 $aGore$b Amy$01886797 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911049142703321 996 $aBook anatomy$94522363 997 $aUNINA
