"Writing life and baking bread : Beth Brant's multiple identities in writing as witness"
Original language description
This paper examines the writing of the First Nations author Beth Brant, particularly her collection of critical and personal essays Writing As Witness (1994). Brant inscribes in her texts her multiple identities as an Indigenous writer, Mohawk woman, anda lesbian feminist, representing sometimes conflicting, sometimes affirming intersections of ethnicity/race, gender, sexuality and religion. In addition, Brant's narrative strategies in the multi-generic pieces interweave her personal observations on her own life, on First Nations literature and history, on important concepts in First Nations spiritual existence, and on the contested positions that Native women occupy in contemporary Canadian society. Finally, the paper points to Brant's contribution to feminist discourse on women's sexuality and lesbian identity through her elaboration on the concept of Two-Spiritedness.
