The Old Lady Trill, the Victory Yell: The Power of Women in Native American Literature (Native Americans-Interdisciplinary Perspectives)
Posted on 2010-04-16

Author: Patrice Hollrah
Publisher: Routledge (2003) Binding: Hardcover, 208 pages pricer: $100.00 ISBN-10: 0415946972 editorialreviews From warrior women to female deities who control the cycle of life, female characters in Native American literature exhibit a social and spiritual empowerment that is quite different from the average Pocahontas we are used to seeing in mainstream literature. This work argues that a tribal construct of gender relations, where the relationship between male and female roles is complementary rather than hierarchical, accounts for the existence of these empowered female characters in Native American literature. Focusing on the work of four of the twentieth century's most famous Native American authors, Zitkala-Sa, Leslie Marmon Silko, Louise Erdrich and Sherman Alexie, Hollrah suggests that it is important to evaluate Native American literary female characters in a cultural paradigm that is less Euro-American and more compatible to the complementarity of Native American culture.
