Abstract

The tendency of reclaiming home in Indigenous women poetry of North America is seen as a part of a multilayered decolonizing project, which aims at disclosing, reconstructing, and removing the effects of the colonial policy for self-determination and betterment of the Indigenous peoples. A precondition of reclaiming home is resurrecting tribal knowledge of belonging which situates the Indigenous subject within family and tribe and close connection to natural surroundings. This paper extends the boundaries of the concept of home from a physical space, such as house and homeland, to a representational one, such as community or cultural articulation, in which one finds comfortable identification (cf. Lefebvre 1991). This assumption supports the expansion of Indigenous agency to the realization of home on the global level. The paper takes a multidisciplinary approach and gathers a vast corpus of poetry, coming from different nations Indigenous to North America, and, therefore, from different locations and writing styles. While using the concept of the Indigenous to refer to Native Americans, Alaskans, First Nations, and Chicana/o, I will also briefly introduce the authors’ tribal affiliations to underline the collective pattern of suffering among the diverse groups.

北美土著女性诗歌中的家园开垦
北美土著妇女诗歌中收复家园的趋势被视为多层非殖民化计划的一部分,旨在揭露、重建和消除殖民政策的影响,以实现自决和改善土著人民的生活。恢复家园的一个先决条件是恢复部落的归属知识,这种知识将土著主体置于家庭和部落之中,并与自然环境密切联系。本文将家的概念从物理空间(如房子和家园)扩展到具象空间(如社区或文化衔接),在其中人们可以找到舒适的认同(参见Lefebvre 1991)。这一假设支持将土著机构扩大到在全球一级实现家园。本文采用多学科的方法,收集了大量的诗歌语料库,这些诗歌来自不同的国家,来自北美土著,因此来自不同的地区和写作风格。在使用土著的概念来指代美洲原住民、阿拉斯加人、第一民族和奇卡那人的同时,我还将简要介绍作者的部落关系,以强调不同群体之间的集体苦难模式。
