Eigenbrod argues that politically correct silence is not the answer but instead does a disservice to the literature that, like all literature, depends on being read, taught, and disseminated in various ways. \u003cem\u003eIn Travelling Knowledges\u003c\/em\u003e, Eigenbrod suggests decolonizing strategies when approaching Aboriginal texts as an outsider and challenges conventional notions of expertise. She concludes that literatures of colonized peoples have to be read ethically, not only without colonial impositions of labels but also with the responsibility to read beyond the text or, in Lee Maracle's words, to become \"the architect of great social transformation.\" \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFeatures the works of: Jeannette Armstrong (Okanagan), Louise Halfe (Cree), Margo Kane (Saulteaux\/Cree), Maurice Kenny (Mohawk), Thomas King (Cherokee, living in Canada), Emma LaRocque (Cree\/Metis), Lee Maracle (Sto: lo\/Metis), Ruby Slipperjack (Anishnaabe), Lorne Simon (Mi?maq), Richard Wagamese (Anishnaabe), and Emma Lee Warrior (Peigan).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Renate Eigenbrod\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0887556817\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780887556814\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Manitoba Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/25\/2005\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 274\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.73lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.02h x 6.26w x 0.85d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eReference and Research Bk News\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/01\/2006 pg. 308","brand":"Renate Eigenbrod","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44063471108351,"sku":"9780887556814","price":28.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_9338cdcd-4e6a-4917-a19e-748f9b57ea85.jpg?v=1685389748","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/travelling-knowledges-renate-eigenbrod-9780887556814","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
