As modern European empires expanded, written language was critical to articulations of imperial authority and justifications of conquest. For imperial administrators and thinkers, the non-literacy of “native” societies demonstrated their primitiveness and inability to change. Yet as the contributors to Indigenous Textual Cultures make clear through cases from the Pacific Islands, Australasia, North America, and Africa, indigenous communities were highly adaptive and created novel, dynamic literary practices that preserved indigenous knowledge traditions. The contributors illustrate how modern literacy operated alongside orality rather than replacing it. Reconstructing multiple traditions of indigenous literacy and textual production, the contributors focus attention on the often hidden, forgotten, neglected, and marginalized cultural innovators who read, wrote, and used texts in endlessly creative ways. This volume demonstrates how the work of these innovators played pivotal roles in reimagining indigenous epistemologies, challenging colonial domination, and envisioning radical new futures.Contributors. Noelani Arista, Tony Ballantyne, Alban Bensa, Keith Thor Carlson, Evelyn Ellerman, Isabel Hofmeyr, Emma Hunter, Arini Loader, Adrian Muckle, Lachy Paterson, Laura Rademaker, Michael P. J. Reilly, Bruno Saura, Ivy T. Schweitzer, Angela Wanhalla

Taking readers to the farms and factories, the marae and churches whereMāori lived, worked and raised their families, Te Hau Kāinga tells thestory of the profound transformation in Māori life during the Second World War.While the Māori Battalion fought overseas, the Māori War EffortOrganisation and its tribal committees engaged Māori men and women throughoutAotearoa in the home guard, the women’s auxiliary forces, and nationalagricultural and industrial production. Māori mobilisation was an exercise ofrangatiratanga and it changed how Māori engaged with the state. And, as Māorimen and women took up new roles, the war was to become a watershed event forMāori society that set the stage for post-war urbanisation.From ammunition factories to kūmara fields, from Te Puea Hērangi to TePaipera Tapu, Te Hau Kāinga provides the first substantial account ofhow hapori Māori were shaped by the wartime experience at home. It is a storyof sacrifice and remarkable resilience among whānau, hapū and iwi Māori.Te Hau Kāinga ispublished alongside its companion volume Raupanga: Ngā Pito Kōrero o tePakanga Tuarua nō te Hau Kāinga, edited by Angela Wanhalla and LachyPaterson. Raupanga features thirty-five succinct,illustrated essays exploring the Māori home front, translated into te reo Māoriby Lachy Paterson.
