Description: Stories in a New Skin : Approaches to Inuit Literature, Paperback by Martin, Keavy, ISBN 0887557368, ISBN-13 9780887557361, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US As a student of the Inuktitut language, Martin (English and film studies, U. of Alberta, Canada) found that she was sorely lacking in Inuit wisdom about their changing environment. Applying Robert Warrior's concept of "intellectual sovereignty," which considers the study of indigenous genres in their own right rather than in comparison to other literatures, she reads selected Inuit traditional stories and songs, and life history storytelling (in texts and films). She includes translation notes, ethnographic and political maps of Inuit regions of the Arctic, versions of native songs, and a glossary. Distributed in the US by Michigan State U. Press.
