Thesis (Ph.D.)--University of Toronto (Canada), 2018.

This thesis explores the ways that stories by Indigenous women matter to decolonization and reframe debates about transitional justice in Canada. My corpus is comprised of Indigenous women's life writing in Canada (in French and English) and in Guatemala (in Spanish) in the 1970s and 1980s, and epistolary exchanges published in Quebec between 2008 and 2016. Each chapter addresses the relationships between author and audience---literary projects---and between reader and text---ways of reading---to examine tensions and affinities in Indigenous and settler engagements for justice. My readings respond to two intertwined objectives: prioritizing Indigenous women writers' visions of justice, while problematizing the position of settler critics' and settlers' feeling of what is right and just. My methodological approach juxtaposes feminist, antiracist and decolonial theories with Indigenous women's writing, in order to think with the texts, and treat the stories themselves as theory.

520 $a In chapter one, I contend that Rigoberta Menchu's testimony (1983) offers the reader a text-based relationship rooted in her understanding of the incommensurability of the reader's and the author's epistemological positions. In chapter two, I look at Indigenous and non-Indigenous writers' relationship to territory in Aimititau! Parlons-nous! (2008) and explore how Nahka Bertrand, Joan Pawnee-Parent and Rita Mestokosho's unapologetic but generous voices relate to non-Indigenous people's discomfort with their positions as settlers. Chapter three discusses Josephine Bacon (2010), Rita Mestokosho (2011) and Natasha Kanape Fontaine's (2016) gesture of friendship in their correspondence with Quebecois writers as a critical and unsettling mode of relationships. In the final chapter, I propose a reciprocal reading that requires a displacement of my academic voice and that takes seriously An Antane Kapesh's (1976) and Mini Aodla Freeman's (1978) embodied writing about their experiences of colonialism. Throughout my analyses of the texts, I propose a settler feminist approach that accounts for positionality, grounds itself in embodied (self-) criticism and considers the materiality of literary relationships.
