Queequeg's Coffin: Indigenous Literacies and Early American Literature
Birgit Brander Rasmussen
Rather than seeing American literature as beginning with the writings of English or Spanish colonists, Brander Rasmussen points to the wide variety of indigenous writing in the Americas prior to colonization. The study looks at writing between 1524 and the mid-19th century work of Herman Melville.
