Book Description
This transnational collection discusses the use of Native American imagery in twentieth and twenty-first-century European culture. With examples ranging from Irish oral myth, through the pop image of Indians promulgated in pornography, to the philosophical appropriations of Ernst Bloch or the European far right, contributors illustrate the legend of "the Indian." Drawing on American Indian literary nationalism, postcolonialism, and transnational theories, essays demonstrate a complex nexus of power relations that seemingly allows European culture to build its own Native images, and ask what effect this has on the current treatment of indigenous peoples.

Book Description
Tribal Fantasy è giallo, è d'avventura, è filosofico ed è persino un po' poetico; il tutto nella magica cornice del fantasy. Non è però una lettura d'evasione: è un libro d'assalto. Qui si va alla carica contro le porte chiuse, si scavalcano le barriere dell'impossibile e del proibito, si entra trionfalmente in un mondo da cui difficilmente saremo disposti a uscire. Qui si propongono idee nuove. Qui non si beve l'acqua blu, non si sta coi piedi per terra, non si raccontano storie di Predestinati che possiedono la Verità Assoluta. Qui non ci sono limiti. In questo romanzo il mezzo vuoto affronta il mezzo pieno in una battaglia all'ultimo sangue.

Book Description
Lulu's sisters, fully understanding typical male fantasies, had designed her to be the prepubescent little girl for which she had a natural resemblance. And as she appeared in the opening of the hut, her small size, delicacy and pretended fragility became apparent to the Stranger. The fact that she was demonstrably not a virgin faded from his mind and the chief immediately lost all perspective. She became the pure virgin vessel which he had always wanted, but without knowing it. And he would want her for forever, for himself alone, not to be shared with her two dozen husbands--none of whom (he imagined) had possessed her as he would. Her large nipples, painted for exaggeration, forced a tremble onto his lips. And he struggled for control as she came closer, as she slowly dropped her skirt, as she revealed crystal white pubic hair, a beautifully beaded pelvis, and the soft pink curve of her vega, now promised, but remaining out of reach.

Book Description
This book examines the ways in which North American Indigenous identity has been (re)imagined, represented, and negotiated in German, Croatian, Italian, Polish, and Czech culture. Employing a cross-disciplinary and comparative approach and drawing on a range of media—from literature, comics, and film to photography, painting, and the performative arts—across different historical and cultural backgrounds, it aims to both contribute innovative scholarship on Indigenous studies in Europe and open a new avenue in the field by focusing on Central European settings that have received little or no critical attention to date. The book’s novelty also comes from its focus on the latest developments in the field, including the “Ravensburger/Winnetou controversy,” which swept across Europe in 2022, echoing the 2017 Canadian debate over Indigenous appropriation and free speech. It seeks to provide a sound reference and lay the groundwork for future scholarship by opening up a conversation on how Indigenous identities have been portrayed in Central European literature and media texts. To this end, it not only addresses generalized expectations about North American Indigenous people underlying (Central) European public discourse and imagination but also questions whether and to what extent some of the ingrained stereotypical views and practices, such as hobbyism, have been challenged in the face of Indigenous resurgence, rapidly changing media and information-sharing realities, and global cultural shifts. The closing interview with Métis playwright, actor, and director Bruce Sinclair underscores one of the book’s key goals—to spark an informed cross-cultural dialogue that will reveal the mechanisms of, as well as the contradictions and tensions inherent in, the politics of Indigenous representation in (Central) European cultural industries and encourage (Central) Europeans to confront their own cultural assumptions and attitudes.
