For
two centuries (1670 - 1870), English, Scottish, and Canadian fur traders
voyaged the myriad waterways of Rupert's Land, the vast territory charted to
the Hudson's Bay Company and later splintered among five Canadian provinces and
four American states. The knowledge and support of northern Native peoples were
critical to the newcomer's survival and success. With acquaintance and alliance
came intermarriage, and the unions of European traders and Native women
generated thousands of descendants. Jennifer Brown's Strangers in Blood is the
first work to look systematically at these parents and their children. Brown
focuses on Hudson's Bay Company officers and North West Company wintering
partners and clerks - those whose relationships are best known from post
journals, correspondence, accounts, and wills. The durability of such families
varied greatly. Settlers, missionaries, European women, and sometimes the
courts challenged fur trade marriages. Some officers' Scottish and Canadian
relatives dismissed Native wives and "Indian" progeny as
illegitimate. Traders who took these ties seriously were obliged to defend
them, to leave wills recognizing their wives and children, and to secure their
legal and social status - to prove that they were kin, not "strangers in
blood." Brown illustrates that the lives and identities of these children
were shaped by factors far more complex than "blood." Sons and
daughters diverged along paths affected by gender. Some descendants became
Metis and espoused Metis nationhood under Louis Riel. Others rejected or were
never offered that course they passed into white or Indian communities or, in
some instances, identified themselves (without prejudice) as
"halfbreeds." The fur trade did not coalesce into a single society.
Rather, like Rupert's Land, it splintered, and the historical consequences have
been with us ever since.

In
a radically new interpretation and synthesis of highly popular eighteenth- and
nineteenth-century genres, Michelle Burnham examines the literature of
captivity, and, using Homi Bhabha's concept of interstitiality as a base,
provides a valuable redescription of the ambivalent origins of the United
States national narrative. Stories of colonial captives, sentimental heroines,
or fugitive slaves embody a "binary division between captive and captor
that is based on cultural, national, or racial difference," but they also
transcend these preexisting antagonistic dichotomies by creating a new social
space, and herein lies their emotional power. Beginning from a simple question
on why captivity, particularly that of women, so often inspires a sentimental
response, Burnham examines how these narratives elicit both sympathy and
pleasure. The texts carry such great emotional impact precisely because they
"traverse those very cultural, national, and racial boundaries that they
seem so indelibly to inscribe. Captivity literature, like its heroines,
constantly negotiates zones of contact," and crossing those borders
reveals new cultural paradigms to the captive and, ultimately, the reader.

Carr
(English, U. of London) examines literary and anthropological writings that
describe, inscribe, translate, and transform Native American myths and poetry
to conform with mainstream American society's conception of the primitive. She
draws on post-colonial and feminist theory and the recent textual turn of
ethnography. The story she finds is taut with the contradiction of trying to
preserve a culture while ruthlessly destroying it. Annotation c. by Book News,

(history of science, Harvard) reveals the important theoretical side to
Franklin's scientific work. He traces his study, especially of Newton, and
examines the theoretical basis of his electricity experiments, noting that
Franklin's success as a diplomat was due to his fame as a scientist among the
European elite. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, OR.

Unsigned synopsis from Amazon.com. 10 Jan. 1999 <http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0140447032/o/qid=916029618/sr=2-2/002-4262871-3705810>.
Born
in Mexico in 1648, Latin America's finest baroque poet Sor Juana Ines de la
Cruz spent her entire adult life in a convent. This unique dual-language
collection of her works includes a famous prose piece that offers fascinating
insights into the poet and the world in which she lived. Remarkable for her
time, Sor Juana discusses the position of women with astonishing frankness,
irony, and thinly veiled anger, issues that continue to be of concern today.
How far, yet how little we have come in 300 years.
Sor
Juana Ines de la Cruz (1648-1695) wrote her most famous prose work, La
Respuesta a Sor Filotea, in 1691 in response to her bishop's injunction against
her intellectual pursuits. A passionate and subversive defense of the rights of
women to study, to teach, and to write, it predates by almost a century and a
half serious writings on any continent about the position and education of
women. Moreover, notes Ilan Stavans in his introduction, it has become "a
cornerstone of Hispanic-American identity ... at once a chronicle of the tense
gender relations in the Western Hemisphere, a rich portrait of the social
behavior that prevailed more than a century before independence from Spain was
gained in 1810, and the very first intellectual autobiography written by a
criolla in a hemisphere known for its solipsism, introversion, and allergy to
public confessions. Also included in this wide-ranging selection is a new
translation of Sor Juana's masterpiece, the epistemological poem "Primero
Sueno," as well as revealing autobiographical sonnets, reverential
religious poetry, secular love poems (which have excited speculation through
three centuries), playful verses, and lyrical tributes to New World culture
that are among the earliest writings celebrating the people and the customs of
this hemisphere.
