What might be gained from reading Native literatures from global rather than exclusively local perspectives of Indigenous struggle? In TransIndigenous, Chadwick Allen proposes methodologies for a global Native literary studies based on focused comparisons of diverse texts, contexts, and traditions in order to foreground the richness of Indigenous selfrepresentation and the complexity of Indigenous agency.Through demonstrations of distinct forms of juxtapositionacross historical periods and geographical borders, across tribes and nations, across the Indigenoussettler binary, across genre and mediaAllen reclaims aspects of the Indigenous archive from North America, Hawaii, Aotearoa New Zealand, and Australia that have been largely left out of the scholarly conversation. He engages systems of Indigenous aestheticssuch as the pictographic discourse of Plains Indian winter counts, the semiotics of Navajo weaving, and Maori carving traditions, as well as Indigenous technologies like largescale North American earthworks and Polynesian oceanvoyaging wakafor the interpretation of contemporary Indigenous texts. The result is a provocative reorienting of the call for Native intellectual, artistic, and literary sovereignty that fully prioritizes the global Indigenous.
