| Summary |
Lincoln's study of Native American humour moves from tribal culture to interethnic literature. He covers the traditional Trickster of origin myths, historical ironies (speeches, treatises, as-told-to life stories), Euroamericans 'playing Indian', Feminist Indian home humour, contemporary painters and playwrights reinventing Coyote, popular mixed-blood music and Red English, and three Native American novelists, Louise Erdrich, James Welch, and N. Scott Momaday, as well as a bicultural novel, The Northern Lights, by Howard Norman. |
