Summary

For a comprehensive bibliography consult the forthcoming expanded edition of A. LaVonne Brown Ruoff's American Indian Literatures. This brief bibliography complements mention of important titles in my Introduction and the Major secondary sources sections that follow each chapter by listing selected general bibliographies, encyclopedias, handbooks, dictionaries, histories, and introductions. I have included recent as well as decades-old reference works. By comparing old and new works, students can see how the field has developed. Other general works useful to both beginners and those more knowledgeable about American Indian literature include: (1) edited collections of essays, such as Laura Coltelli's Native American Literature (1989), Richard F. Fleck's Critical Perspectives on Native American Fiction (1993), Helen Jaskoski's Early Native American Writing (1996), Brian Swann and Arnold Krupat's Recovering the Word (1987), Allan R. Velie's Native American Perspectives on Literature and History (1995), Gerald Vizenor's Narrative Chance (1989), and Andrew O. Wiget's Critical Essays on Native American Literature (1985); (2) general collections of essay that are more personal than typical scholarly essays, such as Roger Dunsmore's Earth's Mind (1997) and Greg Sarris's Keeping Slug Woman Alive (1993); (3) broad thematic studies - for example those focusing on sense of place or region, such as Robert Nelson's Place and Vision (1993) and Eric Gary Anderson's American Indian Literature and the Southwest (1999) - or those focusing on criticism, such as Elvira Pulitano's Toward a Native American Critical Theory (2003).
