Preliminary Bibliography

I'm not sure if I'm excited or overwhelmed or over-medicated (thanks UCF Health Center), but my search for my preliminary bibliography has been truly successful. I think I was most excited when searching keyword "American Captivity Narrative" in the America: History and Life database, I came across an entry by our very own Dr. Logan! I found out that I had to generate tighter keywords otherwise I'd still be searching through too many entries (ex. "American capitivity narrative" and not just "captivity narrative"). During my brief tenure at UCF TV I was responsible for creating the keywords for our program database. Every UCF TV program I previewed and wrote program descriptions for, I also had to create the keywords. I'm not sure if they've implemented them yet...maybe on YouTube, but it was an invaluable skill for me to acquire.

Anyway...I can see how these research projects can become so involved and intense. I feel what I have here is a good start. :)

  1. Looks like you found tons of great stuff! Do you feel like you have to do a lot of background research into Native American-colonial relations in order to place your text in the right context? I think I'm going to add your novel to my ever expanding list of books to read when I have free time, it looks really interesting based on what you've been posting. :)

  2. Keep Faith Leslie in mind as you read "Hope Leslie." I have this crazy idea that Mary Jemison's story may have influenced Sedgwick and you can see it in the character of Faith. That's why I chose the Jemison text to begin with.
