CENG 203 - The Literature of Indigenous Peoples

Course Description

How has colonialism impacted Indigenous cultures, and how have Indigenous people used texts to pose challenges to colonialism and to preserve and retell traditional stories? Reading contemporary literature by Aboriginal Australian, Maori, First Nations and other Indigenous writers, students address these and other important socio-political questions, examine wider literary and theoretical issues, and consider questions regarding cultural identity raised in the writings of Indigenous peoples.
