Brian Swan: See the light

*Seeing the Light* is an anthology of North American Indian literature by Professor Brian Swan, an authority on Indian literature. Dividing the North American continent into seven regions, the book transcribes representative works from important tribal communities in each area directly from the indigenous languages and translates them into English. It not only introduces diverse categories of literature passed down orally among Native Americans—such as myths, legends, songs, blessings, and speeches—but also preserves their formal characteristics, including rhythmic language and rhetorical repetition. This book demonstrates the diversity of North American Indian literature and helps broaden the understanding of their civilization.
