| At a time when female and Native authors worked under significant social and economic constraints, E. Pauline Johnson (1861--1913) not only built a remarkably successful career, she managed to use her platform in order to challenge the male-dominated Eurocentric society from which she drew her audience. This popular author's literary stature has not always been certain, but today she is the "most widely anthologized Native poet in North America" (qtd. in Gerson, 2002) and the subject of numerous dissertations and journal articles. With the publication of Paddling Her Own Canoe: The Times and Texts of E. Pauline Johnson, Tekahionwake (2000), Gerson and Strong-Boag articulated a new approach to Johnson scholarship and provided, for the first time, an extensive listing of Johnson's ephemeral publications, manuscripts, and untraced works. Building on their scholarship, this project offers a detailed bibliographic treatment and publishing history for each of Johnson's separately published titles. |
