Captured by Texts : Puritan to Postmodern Images of Indian Captivity, Paperback / softback Book

Captured by Texts : Puritan to Postmodern Images of Indian Captivity Paperback / softback

Part of the Studies in Religion & Culture series

Paperback / softback

Description

How has the American Indian captivity narrative been used to explain the human condition?

How does it serve to interpret the meaning of pain and suffering, gender, and the primitive-civilized dichotomy?

In Captured by Texts, Gary L. Ebersole explores these questions, showing that our fictional interpretation of captivity can construct a world of meaning that liberates us in the face of adversity, pain, and loss of identity.
