ETHN 189	This course will explore concepts of memory and identity making through storytelling. From the oral to the written, we will examine the role of translated and untranslatable texts, and the agency of Native and/or indigenous writers in constructing their own stories through written, spoken, and visual representations. Additionally, we will interrogate the function of fiction in econstructing/perpetuating notions of authenticity. Students in this course will be asked to employ close reading and listening strategies in order to analyze what is both present and absent within particular texts and what this reveals about the historically unequal relationship between oral and written traditions/cultures.
