Reading for the Law is a dynamic, learned, and powerfulintervention into an important interdisciplinary field of inquiry, undertaken by ascholar with deep knowledge of the key discourses she critiques and a consistentlyengaged point of view, that comprehensively situates its particular arguments indialogue with the field of law and literature as it has evolved over the last twodecades. The range of materials it analyzes, the amount of original research Kruegerhas conducted, and the breadth of knowledge she demonstrates across literature, history, and law is quite stunning.

This groundbreaking book analyzes the theme of community in seven French Caribbean novels in relation to the work of the French philosopher Jean-Luc Nancy. The complex history of the islands means that community is often a central and problematic issue in their literature, underlying a range of other questions such as political agency, individual and collective subjectivity, attitudes towards the past and the future, and even the literary form itself. Celia Britton here studies a range of key books from the region, including Edouard Glissant's "Le Quatrieme Siecle, " Patrick Chamoiseau's "Texaco," Daniel Maximin's "L'Ile et une nuit, "and Vincent Placoly's "L'eau-de-mort guildive," among others.

By looking at engag e literature from the recent past, when thefrancophone African writer was implicitly seen as imparted with a mission, to thepresent, when such authors usually aspire to be acknowledged primarily for theirwork as writers, "Contemporary Francophone African Writers and theBurden of Commitment" addresses the currrent processes ofcanonization in contemporary francophone African literature. Odile Cazenave andPatricia C l rier argue that aesthetic as well as political issues are now at theforefront of debates about the African literary canon, as writers and criticsincreasingly acknowledge the ideology of form. Working across genres but focusing onthe novel, the authors take up the question of renewed forms of commitment in thisliterature. Their selected writers range from Mongo Beti, Ousmane Semb ne, andAminata Sow Fall to Boubacar Boris Diop, V ronique Tadjo, Alain Mabanckou, andL onora Miano, among others.

Gaspar Prez de Villagr (1555 - 1620) was a captain in Juan de Oates expedition that first colonized New Mexico in 1598. In that role, Villagr served as the unofficial chronicler of the expedition. He composed the epic poem of New Mexico history, Historia de la Nueva Mxico (1610), regarded as the first epic poem of European origin generated in the present United States. In this engaging study Genaro Padilla enters into Villagrs epic poem of the Oate expedition to reveal that the soldier was no mere chronicler but that his writing offers a subtle critique of the empire whose expansion he seems to be celebrating.

Novelist, autobiographer, poet, dramatist, essayist and cultural critic of rare and radical boldness, Gerald Vizenor has long stood at the very forefront of Native writing. This study of Vizenors writing includes themes of the socially under-privileged with innovative Native American traditions. His satirical fiction is similar to Mark Twain, Kurt Vonnegut, Philip Roth, and is noted for humor and play with language. Vizenor's achievements cannot be easily summarized; rather, this book gives due evidence of the complexity of his work and the diverse critical responses to it.
