{"product_id":"book-anatomy-amy-gore-9781625347497","title":"Book Anatomy: Body Politics and the Materiality of Indigenous Book History","description":"\u003cp\u003e 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. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Centering Indigenous writers, \u003ci\u003eBook Anatomy\u003c\/i\u003e 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. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Amy Gore\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1625347499\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781625347497\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Massachusetts Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/27\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 216\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.61lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 5.90w x 0.70d","brand":"Amy Gore","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44450369143039,"sku":"9781625347497","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_c43043d3-7f66-4fdd-8f56-7d7b1f94fe26.jpg?v=1698504409","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/book-anatomy-amy-gore-9781625347497","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
