When Critical Approaches Converge: Team-Teaching Welch's "Winter in the Blood."

Charles, Jim; Predmore, Richard

Studies in American Indian Literatures, v8 n2 p47-58 Sum 1996

Describes an approach for team teaching a Native American literatures course that integrates diverse literary critical theories. Using the novel "Winter in the Blood" as an example, a sociocultural critical approach analyzes the "Indianness" of the text and an analysis using objective and formal criteria allows the novel to be compared to other American literature.
